Boiler Feed Water

In boilers water is converted to steam with high thermal capacity. The use of steam is widespread in almost all industries. Steam transfers a large amount of energy in the form of heat and is used in the production process to accelerate chemical reactions, heating, drying of the product, humidification of spaces, sterilization, electricity generation and a number of other applications and processes. For this reason the production of steam in a boiler is one of the most important pars for the operation of the factory. The correct operation of the boiler and the production of good quality steam greatly affect the quality of the products and also the economic operation of the factory as there are many cases (such as paper mill, electricity generation, chemical industry etc) that in case the boiler stops working, the operation of the whole factory is stopped.

Water quality also plays an important role in the life cycle of pipes, boilers and heat exchangers and its optimal processing ensures continuous and high efficiency as well as operational reliability.

The optimal treatment of the supplementary water for the boiler is carried out to reduce corrosion but also the reduction of sediment or sludge deposits inside the boiler’s circuit. The result of good quality feed water in the boiler is the reduction of boiler wear and the hydraulic components of boiler’s circuit, energy loss (blow-down reduction), consumption of chemical additives, reduction of CIP etc.

At the same time, there is the possibility of treating the water of the boiler with chemical additives that improve its operating and performance conditions, dealing with problems such as corrosion and sedimentation.
