Boiler blowdown is a necessary but often overlooked source of energy loss in steam systems. This webinar will explore how blowdown heat recovery systems capture and reuse thermal energy that would otherwise be wasted, improving overall boiler plant efficiency while reducing fuel consumption, water usage, and operating costs.

Attendees will gain a practical understanding of when blowdown heat recovery is applicable, how different system configurations work, and how to evaluate savings potential. Real-world considerations—including water chemistry, operating pressure, turndown, and maintenance requirements—will be discussed to help engineers, facility managers, and ESCO professionals determine whether blowdown heat recovery is a viable solution for their facilities.

Learning Objectives: 

1. Understand boiler blowdown as an energy conservation opportunity

2. Identify when blowdown heat recovery is applicable

3. Understand key design and operational considerations

4. Review example energy and water savings calculations
