2 PagesImproved scale control in a Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) evaporator at a steel plant in South Africa WATER TECHNOLOGIES Background The plant uses a Mechanical Vapor Recompression (MVR) evaporator. However, the unit was not operating to design specifications due to scale buildup. The competitor’s program employed an antiscalant that did not perform well, and seeding of scale occurred in the MVR. This resulted in severe calcium sulph
