COURSE OVERVIEW

This course provides a comprehensive coverage of the modern high pressure boilers. It has been completely revised, reorganized and updated to include the latest techniques in boiler operation, maintenance, failure analysis, failure prevention, performance, optimization, life assessment, inspection, protection, control, troubleshooting, safety, emission and steam system management. Major sections on boiler failure analysis, examinations and prevention are now included in the course to reflect the new trend in the industry of extending the life of capital equipment and improving the plant overall reliability. The course utilizes actual case studies from around the world to highlight the topics discussed.
The course provides practical information that can be readily applied to pinpoint and minimize energy losses in boiler plants and energy distribution systems. Participants will be guided through their plant system component by component, showing exactly where and how performance can be improved. Facts will be given on different fuel types and firing methods, and how modern high-efficiency boiler designs and control systems work.
Following easy-to-implement guidelines and helpful time-saving diagrams, participants will go over strategies to methodically achieve the maximum utilization of fuel and energy to keep operating costs low and equipment performance high.
In addition to the comprehensive training manual, the course includes an e-book entitled “Boiler Operator’s Guide”, published by McGraw-Hill Professional, which will be given to the participants to help them appreciate the principles presented in the course.
