Chemical descaling of shell-and-tube exchanger of Jam Petrochemical Olefin Unit with Mitreh solution

The shell-and-tube exchanger of Jam Petrochemical Olefin Unit had suffered a severe decrease in heat transfer efficiency due to the accumulation of thick layers of hydrocarbon deposits and corrosion products. Conventional physical washing methods such as water jets had also failed to remove these resistant deposits from the internal surfaces of the pipes and restore the system's performance.

Abrizan's solution for these hard deposits

In December 2023, Abrizan Company, after carefully evaluating the technical conditions and type of deposits, proposed and implemented a specialized chemical washing solution. Using Mitreh's advanced chemical solution, the descaling operation was carried out completely and without damage to the metal surfaces. This special formulation was able to decompose and remove sticky hydrocarbon deposits and metal oxides.

Results of chemical scale removal

• Removal of more than 90% of hydrocarbon and corrosion deposits
• Significant recovery of heat transfer efficiency of the exchanger
• No need to replace equipment or stop production for a long time
• Complete satisfaction of the technical team of Jam Petrochemical Olefin Unit

This project demonstrates the ability of Abrizan Company to solve complex heat transfer challenges in petrochemical units with intelligent and non-damaging chemical methods.
