Stringent boiler feedwater quality requirements arising from the advent of supercritical, high-pressure boilers has upped demands on water purification systems for steam generation significantly. And system designers still must contend with varying raw water characteristics dependent on location. The authors describe the challenges encountered at an oil industry site and the responses to them using a purification technology that is gathering favour in the sector. This article first appeared in the August 2015 issue of Desalination & Water Reuse magazine.
