  • Patent number: 8871150
    Abstract: Provided are an apparatus for supplying amine, including: transfer pipe through which amine is transferred; a heat wire which heats the amine that flows through the transfer pipe; a temperature control sensor which controls the temperature in the transfer pipe; and a product recovery valve which recovers product resulting from thermal decomposition of the amine, and a method for supplying amine using the same. The apparatus and method for supplying amine are capable of economically and effectively supplying amine utilizing the thermal decomposition properties of the amine, and may be used to supply amine, for example, to circulating water for power plants.

  • Publication number: 20120073597
    Abstract: Provided is a physical and chemical cleaning method, including introducing nitrogen gas, liquid nitrogen or dry ice into a cleaning solution containing at least one selected from the group consisting of water, monoethanolamine (ETA), dimethylamine (DMA), NH3, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) and N2H2 to remove sludge. The physical and chemical cleaning method is capable of removing sludge, generated or deposited on the substrate surfaces, surfaces of constitutional parts, or gaps in various systems and instruments, more effectively. The physical and chemical cleaning method may be applied to cleaning of steam generators, boilers, heat exchangers, or the like, used in atomic power stations.

  • Patent number: 7550086
    Abstract: Advanced treatment method and system of ethanolamine-containing wastewater are disclosed, which perform physicochemical and biological treatment processes. The method regenerates cation exchange resin that captures ethanolamine discharged from a nuclear power plant or a thermal power station, concentrates the ethanolamine-containing wastewater to reduce the volume of the wastewater, and then treats the highly concentrated ethanolamine-containing wastewater through biological decomposition and denitrification processes. The system for treating ethanolamine-containing wastewater performs the physicochemical process (ion-exchange and resin regenerations) where the waster is concentrated, and then applies the biological process to the small amount of wastewater highly concentrated. The physicochemical process is composed of exchanging ions and eluting/concentrating ethanolamine using sodium hydroxide.
