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.
Under the agreement, Enbridge will add a 10-mile (16.1 kilometer) lateral to the Valley Crossing pipe in Texas to deliver about 0.72 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) of gas to Texas LNG for at ...
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.
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 ...

Scale build-up effectively decreases pipeline diameter and reduces flow rate. The three prevailing water-related problems that upset oil companies today are corrosion, gas hydrates and scaling in production systems.
