Meeting the demands of a changing energy landscape
The energy sector is undergoing a fundamental transformation with power plants required to operate flexibly with frequent start-ups, shutdowns and preservation periods. These demanding conditions have made traditional water-steam cycle treatments insufficient.
Kurita’s Cetamine® Technology, based on Film Forming Amines, addresses this challenge by providing advanced corrosion protection specifically for cycling and intermittent plant operation.
This innovative treatment integrates with existing chemical programs. As a result, operators benefit from improved system protection, reduced turbine coupling times and improved water and energy efficiency.

Enhance Reliability in Intermittently Operating Power Plants with Cetamine®
Optimize your power plant’s performance with Cetamine®, Kurita’s patented film-forming corrosion inhibitor. Designed specifically for intermittently operating facilities, Cetamine® integrates seamlessly with existing chemical programs, forming a protective film across the entire water-steam cycle. This advanced solution effectively mitigates flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC) while safeguarding ferrous and mixed metallurgy components.
- Reduced Iron Oxide Transport: Experience faster start-ups and shorter turbine coupling times during cycling and stop-start operations.
- Operational Flexibility: Ideal for both wet and dry lay-up preservation, ensuring full operational flexibility without compromising steam quality.
- Lower Iron Levels: Cetamine® consistently outperforms conventional treatments like AVT(O) or AVT(R), resulting in significantly lower total iron levels during start-up
- Cost Savings: Reduced blow-down rates lead to savings in water and energy consumption, lowering your environmental footprint and supporting your sustainability goals.
