Do Neutralizing Amines Have a Role in the Treatment of High Purity Boiler Feedwater? James (Jim) Robinson, Luis Carvalho, Robin Kluck, Richard Krichten, GE Power & Water – Water & Process Technologies Neutralizing amines have been widely used to treat high purity boiler feedwater since at least the 1940s. Notable benefits have been derived, however some consider the use of these amines to be risky. In addition the use of organic chemicals for boiler feedwater treatment often causes steam and condensate cation conductivity levels to exceed current power industry and steam turbine vendor guidelines. The benefits that can be derived and questions concerning the use of neutralizing amines are presented to help plant operators assess the potential value of using them in their systems.
