Zinc Chloride Uses
Water treatment
Zinc Chloride – Corrosion Inhibitor in the Cooling Water Treatment
Cooling towers are heat-transfer units that are employed to remove heat from any water-cooled system. In the process of cooling, heat is removed from the water, and the cooled water is then recirculated back into the cooling water system. As the water recirculation is carried out in the process, the mineral concentration of the water increases as a result of the evaporation. For efficient and economical operation, critical care must be taken for the cooling water system. Thorough cleaning of heat transfer surfaces in cooling water systems assures maximum heat transfer. The potential for scaling and corrosion increases with the increase in mineral content in the cooling water, which threatens the efficient operation of the heat exchanger.
Corrosion inhibitors effectively minimize corrosion in cooling water systems. It is a chemical substance that, when added in a lower concentration, helps prevent corrosion in metals and alloys. Corrosion Inhibitors are chemicals that react with a metallic surface or the environment to give good protection to the surface.
Zinc chloride works as a potential corrosion inhibitor with great properties of anti-corrosion. It is more environmentally friendly than the current common phosphonate corrosion inhibitors, especially for use in cooling water treatment chemicals.
Zinc dichloride plays a major role in the growth of the market for corrosion inhibitors. It is mostly used as a cooling water system corrosion inhibitor in various industries such as food and beverages, power, steel, mining and metallurgy, petrochemicals, and oil and gas.
Zinc dichloride is injected into water cooling systems in the aforementioned industries with a specific dose to prevent scaling, corrosion, and the growth of bacteria in the water.
