S-TEN1 inside the chimney of a power plant or incineration facility.
Measures against sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid dew point corrosion of long inner tubes cooled by outside air. Confirmation of specifications and welds.
The inner tube of the chimney is susceptible to external environmental influences, and when the exhaust gas temperature drops or falls below the acid dew point during operation stoppage, localized thinning due to condensed sulfuric and hydrochloric acid can occur. Due to its long structure, material selection must consider not only corrosion allowance but also self-weight, wind and seismic loads, joints, and inspection and renewal methods. In the case of Nippon Steel's application, S-TEN1 with a nominal plate thickness of 6 to 12 mm is indicated for the inner tube of the chimney. S-TEN1 thick plates are designed to meet the mechanical properties of SM400A, but if JIS compliance is to be noted on the mill sheet for applications related to public works or building codes, prior specification before ordering is necessary. Dedicated welding materials, vertical and circumferential joints, drains, insulation, and inspection openings will be considered as a whole.
basic information
- I want to improve the reduction of thickness, holes, and repair cycles in the chimney inner tube. - I want to confirm the plate thickness, JIS compliance markings, and mill sheet conditions for S-TEN1. - I would like to discuss cutting, bending, beveling, and welding fabrication of long materials. Main candidate: S-TEN1. Standard plate thickness is 1.6 to 12 mm. The example plate thickness for the chimney inner tube in the catalog is 6 to 12 mm. Please confirm structural safety, corrosion allowance, service life, requirements for construction and public works, and welding construction and inspection conditions with the designer. 【Basic Information】 1. Main specifications and characteristics - Steel type classification: Acid-resistant steel plate for sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid dew point corrosion - Representative grades: S-TEN1 / S-TEN2 - Corrosion resistance: Suitable for sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid dew point corrosion - S-TEN2 has enhanced corrosion resistance at high temperatures compared to S-TEN1 2.
