Condensate Polishing PDF

Condensate polishing is used in power plants to purify condensate water before it is reused as boiler feed water. Impurities in the condensate are removed to increase thermal cycle efficiency and prevent equipment corrosion. The most common system uses mixed cation and anion ion exchange resins. Separate bed systems with resins in different vessels are preferred for high pressure and nuclear plants. Condensate polishing produces high quality boiler feed water to meet plant requirements.

Condensate Polishing Treatment Process

Condensate polishing is used in power plants, designed to meet the challenge of


purifying very large quantities of condensate. During steam generation, the condensate
that recycles as boiler feed water consist low levels of dissolved minerals and suspended
matter. Prior to re-use, the condensate must be polished to remove the impurities that
reduce the efficiency of thermal cycle and degrade metal components.

Using a condensate polisher prolongs the service lives of equipment by reducing the rate
of corrosion. Condensate polishing translates to operation savings through the
conservation of water and energy.

The most common ion exchange system used in condensate polishing is the mixed bed
system, where the cation and anion resins are mixed together in a single compartment.
This process produces high quality demineralised water whereby ion leakage from the
resins is quickly removed. In separate bed systems, the resins are separated into different
compartments in their respective vessels. Separate bed systems are the favourable
choice for high pressure and nuclear power plant boilers.
