The International Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code establishes rules of safety governing the design, fabrication, and inspection of boilers and pressure vessels, and nuclear power plant components during construction. The ASME - American Society of Mechanical Engineers - International Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) is made of 11 sections

Steam Production When heat is added to water, its temperature rises at a rate of 0.56 C (1 F) for each heat input of 2.095 kJ/kg (1 Btu/lb) If we take water at 0 C (32 F) and we add 419 kJ/kg (180 Btu/lb) then we will increase the temperature of the water by 100 C

Boiler feed water quality is limited owing to problems of (1) scaling, (2) corrosion, and (3) foaming. In order to avoid these problems, the quality guidelines shown in Table IV have been adopted. Data in Table IV show a major difference between cooling water and boiler feed water quality constraints, in that boiler feed water has a strong relationship between water quality …

3.4.3.2 Soft scale is usually found in hot water heating/supply boilers and systems. It has the appearance of thick black or brown sludge and forms in or around the boiler tubes, on the boiler shell, and throughout the heating system. 3.4.4 Scale can be removed by

Boiler Water Treatment Proper treatment of make-up waste and boiler water is necessary to prevent scale, or other deposits, and corrosion within the boiler. The absence of adequate external and internal treatment can lead to operational upsets or total boiler failure.

Since water impurities cause boiler problems, careful consideration must be given to the quality of the water used for generating steam. The composition of boiler feed water must be such that the impurities in it can be concentrated a reasonable number of times inside the boiler, without exceeding the tolerance limits of the particular boiler design.

If your municipal water quality report does not indicate the hardness of your tap water, we recommend that you perform an independent water quality test. Ideally, whether you have the municipal water quality report or now, it is ideal to test the water right before it enters the steam boiler as building pipes can contribute to water hardness.
