Soot blowing procedure
Describe soot blowing procedure (AP_ BOE_2010_P_1) Soot blowing is a crucial process in maintaining the efficiency and lifespan of boilers. It involves using high-pressure steam or air to remove soot and ash deposits from the boiler’s heat transfer surfaces. These deposits can impede heat transfer, leading to reduced boiler efficiencyRead More
Phosphate Dosing
Why phosphate dosing required in boiler ? (Central BOE-2021) Phosphate dosing is required in boilers for two main reasons: to prevent scaling and corrosion, and to maintain proper pH levels. **Scale prevention** Scale is a hard deposit that can form on the inside of boiler tubes and other components. ItRead More
Steam Trap
What is steam trap? (Central BOE-2021) A steam trap is a valve that automatically discharges condensate from steam systems while preventing the escape of live steam. This is important because condensate can interfere with the efficient operation of steam systems by reducing heat transfer and increasing corrosion. Steam traps areRead More
