IPC: F28G9/00
Filed: 1999-06-29
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating a scale-removing or coat-applying system based on a vacuum-balancing low-pressure multi-component two-phase fluid flow. A cleaning site such as, e.g., a pipe circuit (A) or the inner cavities of a heat exchanger (B) is supplied with an already used cleaning agent in a two- or multiphase flow made up of ca. 10 % liquid and ca.  90 % air or gas, which after separation is used again by way of continuously monitoring the ion density of the separated liquid, using a conductivity apparatus which determines whether it shall be filtered and reused, be supplied with new liquid and/or solids, or be dumped. A liquid flow and separated air/gas flow from an air pump meet at a mixing point from where an intended two-phase flow flows to the cleaning site (A), (B), or similar, through this and then forward to return as a re-use medium. A gas-injected liquid/powder flow from a mixing unit is also used for coating, e.g., the inner surfaces of pipes and tanks, or objects placed in a suitable chamber, tunnel, or similar, where excess coating medium is returned for separation for possible re-use, re-introduction or dumping. The method operates an expansion separator (2), air pump (3), conductivity meter (5), cyclone filter (7), valve control (11), pump (12), vapour supply (13), ejector (14), mixing head (18) and sundry pressure (15), temperature (4, 6, 17, 20) and volume (16, 21) control units.
