Although these steps represent common boiler feed water system trains, it is
important to understand that an individual boiler’s unique makeup/chemistry is an
extremely complex calculation that will dictate the technologies needed. We
recommend consulting the boiler manufacturer for their water purification
specifications. You should also consult a water treatment specialist to conduct a
thorough treatability study (http://www.samcotech.com/raw-water-treatment-
system-process/), which can help determine which combination of these technologies
would best suit your boiler.

• Post-treatment. There are various types of post-treatment options that may be
used depending upon plant conditions. If large quantities of water are required
for cooling, or if water is scarce at the facility’s location, plants may opt to treat
the blowdown water with RO or IX and reuse it. For discharge of blowdown
water and/or bleed water, other post-treatment systems may be leveraged to
minimize disposal costs or bring the waste stream in line with discharge
regulations.
While the contaminants present in a waste stream can vary greatly from one process
to the next, wastewater treatment systems commonly treat for biochemical oxygen
demand (BOD), nitrates, phosphates, pathogens, metals, TSS, TDS, and synthetic
chemicals.
