CCW system Hi all, Can anybody denote the acceptance criteria/ standard for carbon steel pipes flushing

with DM water (like Closed cooling water system)? Even though the CCW piping is CS, Somewhere the CCW system flushing is being done with some chemicals such as oxygen scavenger and PH booster, but some places it is done with fresh DM water without any chemicals. Once the turbidity has reached, the running chemical will be added in all the system. Which one are the efficient/ cost saving/ time saving technique for flushing for larger system (400 m^3 system volume)? Does any standard referring the acceptance parameter/ values? Thanks in advance. 1 day ago Like CommentFollow Flag More 1 comment

Follow Fred Fred Davis This is a very broad question whose answer will be subject to the original chemistry of the flush medium. Turbidity is one measure of suspended solids. I suggest that your acceptance criteria be a comparative analysis against the original flush media analysis. I would be looking at Fe ions, pH, O2 content, among others. 23 hours ago Like Reply privately Flag as inappropriate
