“Boiler Feedwater Treatment” Thursday, December 18, 2014, at 10:00 a.m. CST
Water sourcing issues, increased pressures for energy efficiency, and advanced
boiler designs make management and treatment of boiler feedwater even more
important for today’s power plant operators. With increasing Federal and State
regulations limiting access to surface and ground water, minimizing water usage
becomes an important factor in the selection of water treatment methods.
Optimum treatment will help prevent chemical and flow corrosion in boiler water,
steam and condensate systems and elimination of scale. Prevention of
corrosion and scale, in turn, helps to ensure maximum life of boilers, steam
turbines, condensers, and pumps, reduces maintenance expenses and allows optimal
thermal performance providing greater efficiency.
There are a wide variety of water treatment systems available, but which system
is most economical for a specific plant considering energy requirements,
chemical costs and performance. This decision is partially dictated by the
minerals in and chemical and physical composition of the raw water. In
general, raw water from lakes, rivers or wells is treated by aeration,
coagulation, filtration and softening all well established processes.
However, shortages of natural raw water from the traditional sources, the
“greening “ of power plants and increasing stringent regulations on disposal of
water into surface waters or even holding ponds are now forcing plants to
consider reusing their process water or even using treated wastewater from
municipal sources. This adds a new dimension to the problem of properly
treating water before adding it as make-up water in the boiler feed systems.
Process and wastewater contain even more contaminants and many at higher
concentrations than typical natural water.
Panelists will discuss the latest technologies available or under
development to treat boiler feedwater from natural, process and waste sources
with emphasis on chemical usage, water usage, and typical water quality that can
be achieved using these technologies. They will discuss how to reduce the
consumption of chemicals and water while achieving better water quality and
lower operating costs and present the economics of various treatment
technologies focusing on energy use, chemical requirements, capital costs, use
of process or wastewater and operation and maintenance costs and issues.
