Best Answer

One of the problems with heat recovery boilers behind incinerators of solid,liquid or municipal solid wastes is high temperature corrosion associated with the formation of complex eutectics which have a low melting point and deposit as slag on boiler heating surfaces.This is difficult to get rid of and results in high temperature corrosion,fouling problems and consequent higher exit gas temperature from the boiler and consequent lower steam generation.Another concern in these applications is the presence of corrosive gases such as chlorine and hydrogen chloride,which corrode the boiler tubes,particularly those operating above 800 F,resulting in tube thinning and failure
