An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Water Chemistry for Thermal Power Station Plant Chemist
CLASSROOM DATES
INTRODUCTION
This EuroMaTech training course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of industrial water treatment, steam generation, water chemistry and testing. It covers an overview of chemistry fundamentals that will help the participants to understand the general chemistry of elements and compounds most common to a steam generating system. We discusses some of the unique properties of water and its natural chemistry.
It covers technology and water treatment concepts; the pre-treatment for control of scale and treatment for inhibition of microbiological growth in the water; the closed loop water treatment for corrosion prevention; the ion exchange resins, ion exchange for DM water preparation, softening and dealkalizers; the decarbonators and degassifiers; the condensate polishing and two-bed demineralization; and the BFW water-oxygen removal, dearation and chemical scavenging.
The training course provides as much practical information as possible regarding the core areas of steam generation chemistry. Include new information regarding steam generation chemistry, makeup water techniques, and boiler water chemistry to give the participants an overview of trends within these areas. For instance, coordinated/congruent phosphate boiler water treatment is losing ground to other programs; reverse osmosis has grabbed a big share of the makeup water treatment market, and steam chemistry guidelines keep tightening as researchers learn more about the effects of steam contaminants on turbine components. Steam generation personnel need to stay abreast of these developments.
Participants attending the Water Chemistry for Thermal power station plant training course will develop the following competencies:
- Understand the general chemistry of elements and compounds most common to a steam generating system
- Get the basic knowledge of technology and water treatment
- Get the basic knowledge on steam generation chemistry issues, including external treatment of makeup water to remove contaminants, the effects of contaminants on steam generation chemistry, internal chemical treatment programs, sampling and monitoring of water/steam chemistry
