Economics of Condensate Polishing

On August 25, 2010, Res-Kem's Kevin Preising will make a presentation entitled "Reuse It – Don’t Lose It! The Economics of Condensate Polishing" as part of the Industrial Processing on line tradeshow presented by GlobalSpec.

Abstract of Presentation:

In today's environment of economic pressure and high energy costs, engineers are constantly asked to do more with less. A condensate polisher helps meet this challenge.

Condensate Polishers:

• Save energy by reclaiming heat normally sent to drain
• Save water by reducing boiler blow down
• Reduce water treatment chemical usage.

This presentation will use real world examples to show how condensate polishing reduces fuel consumption and minimizes water side fouling in medium- and low-pressure steam plants typical of the food, beverage, and chemical process industries. A follow-up Q&A will address technical aspects of condensate polishing set-up, operation, and maintenance.

Key Take-Aways: 

• Understand how a condensate polisher and water softener compare
• Learn how to justify the expenditure of a condensate polisher to save energy, water, and chemicals
• Know where to add a condensate polisher to treat your steam condensate
• The ROI of a condensate polisher is less than 10 months!

Kevin's presentation will take place from 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM EDT (12:30 PM - 1:30 PM PDT).
