  2. Deaerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaerator

    The typical spray-type deaerator is a horizontal vessel which has a preheating section and a deaeration section. The two sections are separated by a baffle. Low-pressure steam enters the vessel through a sparger in the bottom of the vessel. The boiler feedwater is

  3. Boiler feedwater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler_feedwater

    In deaerating heaters, steam sprays incoming feed water and carries away the dissolved gases. The deaerators also store hot feed water which is ready to be used in the boiler. This means of mechanical deaeration is used with chemical oxygen scavenging agents to increase efficiency.

  4. Deaerating feed tank - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaerating_feed_tank

    The steam heats the water in the tank; The water in the tank serves as a surge volume within the steam plant. The deaerating feed tank's surge volume allows the ship to change "bells" (steam turbine power output) and change the ship's speed without running the feed pump dry or flooding the turbines with liquid water.

  5. Deaeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deaeration

    Deaeration is the removal of air molecules (usually meaning oxygen) from another gas or liquid. It can refer to: Use of a deaerator. Degasification, the removal of ...

  6. Feedwater heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feedwater_heater

    A Rankine cycle with two steam turbines and a single open feedwater heater. A feedwater heater is a power plant component used to pre-heat water delivered to a steam generating boiler. [1] [2] [3] Preheating the feedwater reduces the irreversibilities involved in steam generation and therefore improves the thermodynamic efficiency of the system ...

  7. Multiple-effect distillation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple-effect_distillation

    Multiple-effect distillation or multi-effect distillation (MED) is a distillation process often used for sea water desalination.It consists of multiple stages or "effects". In each stage the feed water is heated by steam in tubes, usually by spraying saline water onto th

  8. Powder deaerator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powder_deaerator

    Powder Deaerators consist of two parallel drums – a filter drum and a pressure drum – which rotate in opposite directions. The drums are driven via drive motor and spur gear.

  9. Degassing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degassing

    Degassing, also known as degasification, is the removal of dissolved gases from liquids, especially water or aqueous solutions.There are numerous methods for removing gases from liquids.
