Baosteel Rare Earth
Scaling in rare earth production heat exchangers reduces heat transfer efficiency.
Issue
Situation before processing
Scaling in the circulating water of heat exchangers during rare earth extraction and precipitation reduces heat transfer efficiency, affecting process temperature.
Instructions
Installation Location & Plan
Install equipment on the process circulating water main header to cover key heat exchangers.
Acceptance and Operational Performance
Restored heat exchange efficiency, stable process temperature, and extended cleaning intervals.
Note: Project outcomes depend on water quality, operating conditions, and management practices. This case study illustrates the approach for similar systems only and does not constitute a guarantee of results for specific projects.
