  • What is a boiler feed water treatment system?
  • The most appropriate boiler feed water treatment system will help the facility avoid costly plant downtime , expensive maintenance fees, and boiler failure as a result of scaling, corrosion, and fouling of the boiler and downstream equipment. But what is a boiler feed water treatment system and how does it work?
  • Why do industrial companies need a boiler feed water treatment system?
  • For industrial companies using a boiler for its facility, some type of boiler feed water treatment system is usually necessary to ensure an efficient process and quality steam generation.
  • What chemicals are used in feedwater treatment?
  • The feedwater analysis and plant operating conditions determine the kind of utilized chemicals. Application of lignin and tannin to sludge conditioning and alkaline phosphate and soda ash for precipitation of magnesium and calcium are traditional internal treatment methods that effectively prevent boiler scale and reduce water hardness.
  • How to choose the best feedwater treatment process?
  • Optimization of major influential factors in the selection of the best feedwater treatment process, including furnace tube geometry, boiler pressure, superheater, steam end use, the steam disengaging area in the drum, economizer, heat flux, and condensate recovery.
