Limescale in effluent water pipe of a refinery

Q8 refinery in Rotterdam reduced limescale deposits in effluent water pipes using Merus Ring technology without chemical treatment.

O desafio

At the inside of the pipe walls a lot of limescale settled over the time. This reduced the pipe diameter and lowered the flow rate. Therefore problems occurred upstream. Initial deposit layer measured approximately 50mm thick.

A solução Merus

Installation of two Merus Rings - one at the pipeline beginning and one directly after the pump - to treat effluent water without adding chemicals.

At 6 months: calcium layer reduced from approximately 50mm to 25mm thick. At 12 months: only few deposit left, some areas are completely free of limescale. Total inner diameter increase of 70mm achieved. Flow rate stabilized

new deposit formation stopped.
