  • Transport and deposit inhibition of copper in boilers
    Patent number: 5158684
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method of transporting and inhibiting the deposition of copper and copper-iron materials on heat transfer devices in steam generating systems. This method utilizes a thermally stable chelant and a carboxylated polymeric dispersant as the treatment agents. Representative chemicals are 1,10-phenanthroline and 9:1 methacrylic acid/acrylic acid copolymer.
    Type: Grant

  • Boiler water treatment
    Patent number: 4952324
    Abstract: A method for treatment of boiler waters is disclosed. The method comprises a synergetic combination of ametacrylic acid-containing polymer with a strongly interacting nonionic surfactant, together with a chelant and/or a phosphate-generating species. The method is particularly effective when the surfactant is an alkoxylated alkylphenol or an alkoxylated alkylphenol ether.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 21, 1989
