  2. Hydrochloric acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrochloric_acid

    Hydrochloric acid, also known as muriatic acid or spirits of salt, is an aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl). It is a colorless solution with a distinctive pungent smell. It is classified as a strong acid. It is a component of the gastric acid in the digestive systems of most animal species, including humans.

  3. Mixed oxidant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixed_Oxidant

    A mixed oxidant solution (MOS) is a type of disinfectant that has many uses including disinfecting, sterilizing, and eliminating pathogenic microorganisms in water. [1] An MOS may have advantages such as a higher disinfecting power, stable residual chlorine in water, elimination of biofilm, and safety. [2]

  4. Oxychlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxychlorination

    For example, dissolution of iron ores in hydrochloric acid gives a mixture of ferrous and ferric chlorides: [4] Fe 3 O 4 + 8 HCl → FeCl 2 + 2 FeCl 3 + 4 H 2 O. The iron(II) chloride is converted to the iron(III) derivative by treatment with oxygen and hydrochloric acid: 4 FeCl 2 + O 2 + 4 HCl → 4 FeCl 3 + 2 H 2 O

    They are highly effective in preventing salt water and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) corrosion. Acrylic polymers: These polymers are used as corrosion inhibitors in the industry due to their good compatibility with oil and drilling fluids. They are effective against corrosion caused by the presence of hydrochloric acid (HCl) in drilling fluids.

    In the United Kingdom, the environmental regulator permits only chemical additives which are classed as non hazardous to groundwater for fracturing fluids. [3] [4] [5] Operators are required to disclose the content of hydraulic fracturing fluids to the relevant environment agency [6] while the composition must be disclosed if the regulator demands it. [7]

    A corrosive material is a liquid or solid that causes full thickness destruction of human skin at the site of contact within a specified period of time. A liquid that has a severe corrosion rate on steel or aluminum based on the criteria in 49CFR 173.137(c)(2) is also a corrosive material .

  9. Oxygenated treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygenated_treatment

    With oxygenated treatment, oxygen is injected into the feedwater to keep the oxygen level between 30 and 50 ppb. OT programs are most commonly used in supercritical (i.e. >3250psi) power boilers. OT programs are most commonly used in supercritical (i.e. >3250psi) power boilers.
