Components

Condensate from steam consumers is channelled, collected and temporarily stored in the condensate service module. A condensate pump transports the condensate back into the feed water deaeration system when water is needed.

The condensate high pressure plant keeps the condensate at constant pressure and temperature, thus preventing or dramatically reducing expansion steam losses. The condensate is fed directly to the steam boiler via the condensate pump as required. It is not necessary to deaerate the high-pressure condensate again.

Benefits

• Decreases in energy and water consumption due to reduced quantities of make-up water
• Minimisation of expansion steam losses, desalination and blow-down quantities, chemical consumption and corrosion potential in the steam condensate system when condensate high pressure plants are used
