Waste incineration plants - Scrubbers
  • Waste incineration plants generate corrosive and dangerous fumes.  To absorb and neutralise the fumes, scrubbers are installed on the exhaust circuit.  Due to the complex nature of the chemicals the scrubbers are made of corrosion resistant steel, with a high alloy content.  The producers of scrubbers benefit from the use of WA Cored Wires for joining these special alloys, through welding efficiency and high quality results.
  • WA Products and applications: TETRA V 904L

Incineration combustion chamber

  • Inside the incineration combustion chamber, chemical reactions create corrosion on the boiler panel walls.  This corrosion, combined with erosion from airborne ash, thins the boiler panel walls to a critical thickness where maintenance is required before water leaks occur.  Frequent inspection is required to avoid major outage.  Preventative or maintenance corrosion protection of the walls is performed with automated welding techniques and nickel based alloys to ensure efficient future operation.
