STEAM CONDENSATE

 

Revel provides high quality activated carbon that delivers excellent mineral oil removal and exceptionally low levels of silica leaching to purify vapor condensate in oil & gas refining processes in the pressurized steam generation processes. Our carbons activated allow the refineries to:

  • Reduce operating costs by cutting energy and water consumption

  • Maximize uptime at the plant

  • Extend the lifetime of valuable boiler systems and turbine assets by preventing the formation of silica scales, especially in high-pressure boiler systems or in cases of pH or temperature spikes

  • A full suite of activated carbon covering all of your steam condensate

  • Purification needs

  • Small leaching of silica prevents the scaling

  • Better removal of mineral oil maximizes the return of feed water to the boiler and avoids foaming / depositing problems

  • Reduced energy costs by preventing deposits of silicate which hinder heat transfer

  • Reduced cost of water by reducing bed volumes necessary to bring a new activated carbon filter online

CHALLENGE AND SOLUTION

 

Boilers are used for heating water and supplying hot water and steam. Boiler water circuits are closed loop structures where, preferably, the water circulates continuously. For example, if the boiler feed water becomes contaminated by leaking seals due to mineral oils, it must be discarded, and pretreated maquillage water must be added. This can be expensive because water is expensive in some parts of the world, and can also cause plant downtime. Furthermore, refineries aim to minimize the use of make-up water to reduce their energy costs, because fresh make-up water has to be heated for steam processing. Our activated carbon products provide exceptional removal of mineral oils and organic contaminants, maximizing the return of steam condensate to the feed water of the boiler. This reduces the cost of both energy and water.
