For industrial companies using a boiler for its facility, some type of boiler feed water treatment system is usually necessary to ensure an efficient process and quality steam generation. The most appropriate boiler feed water treatment system will help the facility avoid costly plant downtime, expensive maintenance fees, and boiler failure as a result of […]
Defining raw water needs as well as potential raw water source, is the starting point of work to define the water treatment methods in Industry applications. Water treatment processes will be as much intensive as it is the water quality required for the process itself, being the purity of water used to feed high pressure […]
The presence of calcium (Ca2+) and magnesium (Mg2+) ions in a water supply is commonly known as “hardness.” The degree of hardness is classified as follows: The main problem associated with hardness is scale and deposits formation. Even levels as low as 5 to 8 mg/L are too extreme for many uses (i.e. as boiler […]
Any activities, whether domestic or industrial produce wastewaters or effluents containing undesirable contaminants that must be removed before the water is discharged to a natural receptor. In general, conventional wastewater treatment consists of a combination of physical, chemical and biological processes and operations to remove insoluble particles and soluble contaminants from effluents. There are various […]
It is well-known the existing problem derived from generation of electricity, its related environmental impact and sustainability of different technologies. The demand for electric power is continuously increasing due to several demographic subjects such as, for instance, the increase of world population, the rising industrialization or the incorporation into the consumer market by developing countries. […]
Oil & gas The oil & gas industry includes the global processes of exploration, extraction, refining, transporting (often by oil tankers and pipelines), and marketing petroleum products. The largest volume products of the industry are fuel oil and gasoline (petrol).
