Refractories and Industrial Ceramics Aims and scope

Abstract

The temperature and corrosive action of the effluent gases on the chamotte lining of the stack of an oil-refining enterprise is considered. It is established that fracture of the lining is caused mainly by the interaction between the SO2 present in the effluent gases and mullite. During service of the stack, aluminum sulfates form, and in cooling new formations arise (tschermigite) that disrupt the chamotte lining.
