Hello everyone! Today, I’m here to answer some common questions about water treatment equipment. I hope this will be helpful to you.
A boiler is an energy conversion device. The energy input into a boiler comes from the chemical energy in fuel and electrical energy, while the output is steam, hot water, or organic heat carriers with a certain amount of thermal energy.
Boilers are widely used in both production activities and daily life. They can be classified based on their main applications, including power plant boilers, industrial boilers, domestic boilers, and special boilers.
Boiler feedwater typically comes from surface water, groundwater, or tap water. These water sources usually have a higher hardness level, and surface water or groundwater may also contain other suspended solids and impurities.
Poor water quality and excessive hardness can impact the boiler's operation, leading to scaling. Therefore, pre-treatment of the boiler water is essential.
Pre-Treatment System
The pre-treatment system includes quartz sand/activated carbon filters and softeners. The filter reduces water turbidity and removes suspended particles and impurities. The softener is mainly used to reduce water hardness by removing calcium and magnesium ions, preventing scaling in the boiler.
-
Quartz Sand/Activated Carbon Filters: These filters rely on the adsorption ability of the filter media (such as activated carbon or quartz sand) to remove impurities from the raw water. The choice of filter media depends on the quality of the incoming water.
-
Softener: The softener uses ion exchange resins to replace calcium and magnesium hardness ions in the water. Once the resin becomes saturated and its adsorption capacity decreases, the resin can be regenerated.
After the raw water passes through the filter and softener and meets the required standards, it is suitable for use as boiler feedwater.
Conclusion
This concludes the introduction to water treatment equipment for boilers. I hope you find this information useful.
