Abstract

The outer surface of heat exchanger tubes that work under fluidized bed waste or biomass incineration is exposed to severe high-temperature erosion-corrosion (E-C). To evaluate the behavior and enhance the service life of the tubes, the real service conditions ought to be simulated in the laboratory. In this study a test rig with a fluidized bed of hot sand was designed and manufactured to expose nickel-based SFNi4 alloy to high-temperature E-C. In order to increase the corrosiveness of the environment, the silicon oxide sand was mixed with 0, 0.5 and 1 wt.% of a mixture of NaCl and KCl salts with 1:1 molar ratio. The erosive conditions of the environment were changed by altering air flow rate from 20 to 25 L/min and changing the sand incident angle from 45 to 90 degrees. The rate of material removal was calculated by measuring the thickness of each sample before and after the test. After each experiment, the surface and cross-section of specimens were studied using SEM and EDS analysis. Finally, the optimum E-C parameters to ensure actual industrial conditions were obtained.

Abstract

High-temperature erosion-oxidation behavior of nickel-based alloys containing 0-7 wt.% Mo in fluidized bed waste incineration conditions was studied. A stream of hot condensed air with a flow rate of 25 L/min caused hot silica sand (700 °C) mixed with 0.5 wt.% of chloride salts to hit the specimens for 250 h. By removing the erosive factor, the high-temperature oxidation behavior of the alloys in air and air-chlorine atmospheres was studied at 520 and 560 °C for 100 h. Mass gain measurement due to oxidation followed by thickness loss measurement in the erosion-oxidation tests showed that an increased Mo content led to improved oxidation resistance as a result of reduced scaling rate. However, under simultaneous oxidation and erosion conditions, the lower oxidation rate of the alloy with 7 wt.% Mo caused rapid removal of the protective scale and a reduction in erosion-oxidation resistance of the alloy. Under these conditions, the alloy with 3 wt.% Mo showed the smallest removal rate. Microscopic observations and XRD analysis confirmed formation of Cr2O3/NiCr2O4 scales on the surface.  Mo-free alloy with lowest oxidation resistance showed a higher erosion-oxidation resistance. However, the high oxidation rate of this alloy led to a severe Cr-depletion and internal oxidation in subsurface region.
