It occurs when metal at high temperature comes into contact with air or
other gases, resulting in oxidation or sulphidation of the metal.
Electro-chemical action
Galvanic action, this being set up when two dissimilar metals are placed
in an electrolyte. The noble of the two metals form a cathode to the base
metal which, forming the anode, is wasted away.

Excessive dosage of hydrazine could lead to steam and condensate line
corrosion due to ammonia being produced as the excess hydrazine
decomposed.
In high pressure boiler, by using the sodium sulphite, the sulphite can
break down to give hydrogen sulphide which can attack steel brass and
copper.
If chloride is found too much in your boiler water what will you
do ?
If exhaust gas and oil fired can be used the same time, it is termed the
composite boiler.
In this type a separate tube nest of tube for exhaust gas is provided,
situated above the return tubes from the fire furnace.
Uptake from the tube nest are separated.
If the exhaust gas and the oil fire are arranged to be used only at a time,
the exhaust gas boiler term as the alternative boiler.
This unit can be oil fire heated by the exhaust gases alternatively.
It required only one uptake.

Steam and water cocks and passages in the gauge can be cleared while
the boiler is still steaming.
To do this, shut the steam and water cocks and open the drain cock.
Remove the check plug opposite the obstruction.
Insert the cleaning plug. Screw in the plug with small hole about 5
mm diameter, drilled through it in place of the cleaning plug.
Insert into this hole a rod of such a size that held by a gloved hand, it can
be easily moved without being stuck.
Then open the chocked and push the rod through to clear the blockage.
When clear, open drain to prevent a build up of pressure and only a small
amount of steam will blow past the rod, the glove protecting the operator
from injury.
Then close the cock and replace the normal cleaning plug. The gauge
glass can be tested now and if satisfactory return to service.
Do not carry out this operation on a plate type glass on a high pressure
boiler.
The boiler must be topped up periodically and any air in the system must
be got rid off.
Regularly test the boiler water and keep the alkalinity in the range
of recommended value.
If the boiler is to be taken out of service for long period
Then the trays of quick lime (moisture absorbent material) should be place
internally in suitable positions.
The quick lime should be renewed at least once every two months.
