Abstract

The descaling of heater tubes is effected by alternately subjecting the deposited scale to oxidation and reduction techniques. Oxidation is preferably effected in a vaporous atmosphere of 1.0 to 15.9 percent oxygen, and reduction in an atmosphere of 5.0 to 50.0 percent hydrogen. The heater is flushed, after either the reduction step, or after both oxidation and reduction, with steam and/or nitrogen to remove loosened particles of scale.
