Non-polluting stainless steel descaling & pickling by use of high pressure water jets

Objective

Due to the creation of acid vapours, pickling is one of the most important source of pollution during the fabrication process of stainless steels from hot band to finished product. Up to now, research has been devoted to find less polluting pickling solutions. This research aims to study a new descaling process using high-pressure water jet with or without abrasive. In particular, great attention will be given to the new technology consisting in the use of very high-pressure flat-water jet. The advantages of high pressure water jet descaling are very numerous: suppression of pollution, improvement of security, improvement of working conditions and improvement of the surface quality and process stability of stainless steels.
