Rippled scales in a geothermal facility in the Bavarian Molasse Basin: a key to understand the calcite scaling process

Abstract Mineral precipitates, scales, are wide-spread in geothermal facilities and hamper technical and economic efficiency. Scales reported from earlier studies in the Bavarian Molasse Basin consisted mostly of calcite, appeared rather homogeneous, grew flat and perpendicular to the surface, and s...
