2. Descaling agent - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descaling_agent

   Limescale build-up inside a pipe reduces both liquid flow and thermal conduction from the pipe, so will reduce thermal efficiency when used as a heat exchanger.. A descaling agent or chemical descaler is a liquid chemical substance used to remove limescale from metal surfaces in contact with hot water, such as in boilers, water heaters, and kettles.

3. Water softening - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

   Limescale buildup in a PVC pipe. The presence of certain metal ions like calcium and magnesium, principally as bicarbonates, chlorides, and sulfates, in water causes a variety of problems. [1] Hard water leads to the buildup of limescale, which can foul plumbing, and promote galvanic corrosion. [2]

4. Limescale - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Limescale

   Limescale is a hard, chalky deposit, consisting mainly of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3). It often builds up inside kettles , boilers , and pipework, especially that for hot water. It is also often found as a similar deposit on the inner surfaces of old pipes and other surfaces where hard water has flowed.

   Running water through your home's pipes will help prevent water from sitting and freezing. Keep your home's thermostat set to the same temperature both during the day and at night. This will ...

6. Oilfield scale inhibition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oilfield_scale_inhibition

   The most difficult scales to remove are those of Barium sulfate because of its high insolubility forming very hard scale deposits. A general representation of the reaction is summarized in reaction: 5. M 2+ (aq) + SO 4 2− (aq) → MSO 4(s) Sulfate scale usually forms when formation water and injected seawater mix together. [2]

7. Fouling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fouling

   Limescale buildup inside a pipe reduces liquid flow through the pipe and reduces thermal conduction from the liquid to the outer pipe shell. Both effects will reduce the pipe's overall thermal efficiency when used as a heat exchanger. Extreme boiler pipe scale buildup Temperature dependence of the solubility of calcium sulfate (3 phases) in ...
