Heat Transfer Salt with the increased use of high-temperature operations, the chemical and petroleum process industries need an economical, efficient, heat transfer medium that is between steam and direct-fire heating. Sodium nitrite can be mixed with nitrate salts to create a molten salt bath. It has a low melting point, high heat transfer rate, is stable at high temperatures, and is non-corrosive to steel. The salts are used for indirect heating and cooling or as quenching baths in the annealing of iron and steel.
Heat Transfer Salt kept in between steam and direct-fire heating. Heat Transfer salt has low melting point to create a molten salt bath also have high heat transfer rate and its proprietory blend of heat transfer salt is stable at high temperatures, and is non-corrosive to steel. The salts are used for indirect heating and cooling or as quenching baths in the annealing of iron and steel.
Now a days Uses of Molten Salts as a Heat Transfer Fluid and Thermal-Storage Medium is common. One of the most commonly used molten salts is a eutectic blend of sodium nitrate and potassium nitrate.
Heat Transfer salts contains Nitrate are stable and have low toxicity, but they are oxidizers. In the presence of fire or open flames, they can break down and liberate oxygen, providing a fuel source for the flame. Molten nitrate salts should be kept away from open flame, sparks and other sources of ignition. If proper precautions are taken, the salts should not pose any hazards.
