Water Treatment

High-purity water is essential for a thermal plant’s operation, as impurities like silica, sodium, or dissolved oxygen are ‘silent killers’ causing pitting and stress corrosion, which necessitates the use of demineralised and purified water for safe steam generation and turbine protection. The presence of dissolved solids or oxygen can lead to scaling, pitting, corrosion, and stress failures in critical components like superheaters, turbines, and condensers; therefore, maintaining strict control over water chemistry is vital for plant integrity. Moreover, in an era of increasing water scarcity, managing and reducing specific water consumption is no longer just a technical requirement but a critical sustainability mandate and necessary for regulatory compliance, especially in water-stressed regions.
