Low-Temperature Chloride Corrosion in Boilers — Small Moisture, Big Damage
When hot gas meets a cool, slightly damp metal surface, moisture condenses and dissolves chloride salts/gases. That kick-starts a rapid corrosion cycle.
Role of Chloride Ion (Cl⁻) in Pitting (Quick Take)
Cl⁻ doesn’t oxidize iron directly; it breaks the protective Fe₂O₃ film, creating local defects → pitting
Cl⁻ penetrates crevices/under deposits, forming soluble iron chlorides → sustained metal dissolution
Key reactions:
Fe²⁺ + 2Cl⁻ → FeCl₂
FeCl₂ + 2H₂O → Fe(OH)₂ + 2HCl
→ HCl acidifies and regenerates Cl⁻, so the corrosion loop repeats
Where it hits hardest
– Pitting on tubes/headers
– Crevice corrosion at gaskets, lap joints, clips
– Under-deposit corrosion beneath sticky ash/salts (economizer, air heater, SH/REH inlets)
Why TEKE Cleaning (Dry) > Wet Cleaning 🌬️ > 💦
✅ Removes hygroscopic chloride deposits without adding water → less re-wetting/flash rust
✅ No wastewater/sludge; no chloride-rich liquid seeping into crevices
✅ Shorter downtime → faster return to service
✅ Better long-term protection: clean, dry metal = fewer moisture/Cl⁻ cells

The Superheater is one of the most critical boiler pressure parts. Its main job: turn saturated steam into superheated steam – stronger, drier, and more efficient.
Key Functions
✅ Increase Steam Temperature – raises steam above saturation point for higher plant efficiency
✅ Ensure Dry Steam – protects turbines and piping from erosion & water hammer
✅ Improve Efficiency – reduces fuel use per kWh by boosting Rankine cycle performance
✅ Protect Equipment – prevents moisture-related corrosion and extends service life
⚙️ Types of Superheater
Radiant Superheater – absorbs heat directly from furnace radiation
Convection Superheater – heated by flue gas flow after furnace
Combined Superheater – uses both radiation + convection for optimum performance
🏭 AGON Pacific Capability
At AGON Pacific, we ensure mechanical design and fabrication under ASME Code:
ASME Section I – thickness, stress, and allowable design
Materials – SA213 T22, T91, TP347H, creep-resistant alloys
Fabrication – precision coil bending, header welding, nozzle prep
Quality Control – RT/UT, hydrostatic test, dimensional checks
✅ With certified engineers and skilled fabrication teams, AGON Pacific delivers Superheaters built for safety, quality, and long service life – ready for power plants, biomass, and industrial boilers.
Cold Bend – Bend at ambient temperature using mechanical force
✅ Faster, no heat distortion
⚠ Risk: Wall thinning & ovality if radius is tight
Hot Bend – Heat tube (induction/furnace) before bending
✅ Lower stress, more uniform thickness, ideal for tight radius & hard materials
⚠ Requires temperature control, PWHT, oxidation protection
📐 Rule of Thumb
• Cold Bend: R/D ≥ 1.3
• Hot Bend: R/D < 1.3, thick wall, low ductility, alloy steels
📏 Extrados Thickness Check (UTM)
1️⃣ Reference Thickness
• Measure straight tube wall (before bending) → baseline tthckness of straight tube.
2️⃣ Measurement Points
• Readings at Apex (180°), ±30°, ±60°, ±90°
• Record extrados (12 o’clock) thickness
• Optional: check intrados (6 o’clock) & neutral sides (3 & 9 o’clock)
3️⃣ Acceptance Criteria
• Wall ≥ design minimum thickness
• Ovality ≤ 10%
🔎 At Agon Pacific, every bend is controlled by ASME & OEM tolerances for ovality, wall thinning, and hardness. With UTM verification, we ensure bending precision and reliable service life.
✅ Precision bending = Longer service life
Another job well done!

📌 Image 1–2: Tube Bending for Superheater Coils
Material: ASTM A213 TP347H
These austenitic stainless steel tubes are precisely bent and subjected to post-bending heat treatment to relieve residual stresses and restore material properties. The discoloration seen is typical of heat-treated surfaces, indicating controlled thermal exposure to meet high-temperature service requirements.
