Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This handbook delves into the crucial role of water in steam boilers, exploring its impact on performance and longevity. The author, drawing on extensive experience as a chemist for a boiler insurance company, offers practical insights into the challenges posed by impurities and corrosion. Readers will discover the various ways unsuitable water can wreak havoc on boilers, from corrosion and leaks to potentially catastrophic explosions. The book then examines the different types of mineral constituents found in water and their specific effects, highlighting the dangers of magnesium chloride, nitrates, and sulphates of iron and aluminum. Moving beyond identification, the author presents solutions for mitigating these issues. This includes detailed discussions on water softening techniques, encompassing exhaust heater-softening plants, lime and soda plants, and the Permutit system. Ultimately, this book equips engineers and chemists with the knowledge and tools to optimize boiler performance and ensure safety by effectively managing the quality of their feed water.
