2. Deaerator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaerator

   A deaerator is a device that is used for the removal of dissolved gases like oxygen from a liquid. Thermal deaerators are commonly used to remove dissolved gases in feedwater for steam-generating boilers. The deaerator is part of the feedwater heating system. [1][2] Dissolved oxygen in feedwater will cause serious corrosion damage in a boiler ...

3. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater

   Boiler feedwater is the water which is supplied to a boiler. The feed water is put into the steam drum from a feed pump. In the steam drum the feed water is then turned into steam from the heat. After the steam is used, it is then dumped to the main condenser. From the condenser, it is then pumped to the deaerated feed tank.

4. Deaerating feed tank - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaerating_feed_tank

   Deaerating feed tank. A deaerating feed tank (DFT), often found in steam plants that propel ships, is located after the main condensate pump and before the main feed booster pump. It has these three purposes: Remove dissolved oxygen (“air”) from the condensate. Pre-heat the feedwater.

5. Boiler blowdown - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_blowdown

   Boiler blowdown is water intentionally wasted from a boiler to avoid concentration of impurities during continuing evaporation of steam. The water is blown out of the boiler with some force by steam pressure within the boiler. Bottom blowdown used with early boilers caused abrupt downward adjustment of boiler water level and was customarily ...

6. Water injection (oil production) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_injection_(oil...

   Desulphated water flows to the top of the deaerator column, this operates at a partial vacuum (0.3 bara) sustained by the deaerator vacuum unit. The deaerator internals comprise three packed beds. Deaerated water is taken from the base of the deaerator by transfer pumps which deliver 1632 m 3 /hr at 3.6 barg to the degasser surge drum. [4]

7. Glossary of boiler terms - Wikipedia

   A generic term for water-tube boilers of the Yarrow pattern. In Royal Navy practice, a reference to the specific Admiralty example of this. [4] [5] Throatplate a plate forming the lower front of the outer firebox of a locomotive boiler, below the barrel. Top-feed in locomotive boilers, a feed water check valve placed on the top of the boiler ...
