VALSTEAM ADCA | BFT HOTWELL BOILER HOUSE EQUIPMENT

The BFT boiler feed tank is one of the most important devices in a boiler room. Its main function is to store the make-up water and condensate, assuring a reserve of treated water to supply to the steam boilers. The make-up water has to be softened to prevent scale formation on the boiler and the oxygen also has to be removed, so that corrosion in the boiler and steam system is avoided (this situation is normally handled by specialists). The consumption of chemicals used to eliminate the oxygen can be drastically reduced if you use one of the several ADCATherm thermal degasification processes (ADG, TDG, FCD) for the removal of oxygen and other non-condensable gases (mainly carbon dioxide). Even if you choose not to use one of the mentioned systems, the ADCATherm boiler feed tanks will always be optimized according to the existing needs, therefore being able to include water pre-heating, as well as other features obvious to a true steam expert, but not to a simple tank manufacturer.
