Despite the fact that most boiler shutdowns can be traced back to poor feedwater treatment, topics like boiler efficiency, fuel savings and general maintenance tend to dominate the conversation.  Proper boiler water treatment improves steam quality, boiler efficiency and uptime.

Many of the process industries — among them, food and beverage, chemical processing, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical and mining — use vast amounts of water and energy in their day-to-day operations. 

Process heating accounts for a large portion of the energy demand in industrial plants, and the fuel that is required to run a steam plant represents a costly and necessary reoccurring expense.

On October 19 at 2 p.m. ET, a webinar from Cleaver-Brooks will address boiler water treatment.

Heat exchangers are key components for many industries, particularly in chemical and oil and gas plants where they play a vital role in process control.
