In the boiler industry, high purity feedwater is essential to ensure proper operation of steam generation systems. High purity water reduces the use of boiler chemicals due to the frequent reduction in blowdown output required (reduction of blowdown frequency by up to 10 times).

The most important method for preventing sediment formation is to improve the quality of water used in various industries. This method is carried out in various forms such as sedimentation, filtration, deaeration, degreasing, using the under-water rinsing method, and softening the water used.
