Abstract
A method for controlling fouling of a flashing vessel or heat-exchange surface exposed to a high-enthalpy geothermal brine tending to form silicon-containing scale. The method adds a silicon-complexing amount of fluoroborate species to the brine to form a fluid mixture that does not produce substantial amounts of the scale when the temperature of the fluid mixture is reduced. The addition does not significantly increase corrosion rates of mild steel heat-exchanger materials of construction.
