Water treatment for boiler feed water

Areas of application
for boilers

Steam boilers are not only used in power stations, but also in all larger industrial plants. They generate water vapour, which is used for heating, for industrial processes or to drive steam turbines.

Over time, salts accumulate in the steam boiler, because as water containing more or less salt is fed into it, only the chemically pure water escapes through evaporation. These salts are deposited as scale on the inner walls and reduce the efficiency of the boiler by deteriorating heat transfer. In addition, salts and dissolved gases lead to operating problems due to corrosion and rust formation.
