2. Continuous blowdown
The amount of blowdown shall be determined according to the test results of the boiler water, and shall be completed by adjusting the needle-shaped angle of the blowdown tube. The sewage can be flowed into the pressure expansion tank so that the secondary steam generated due to the pressure drop can be reused meanwhile the wasted water is discharged from the expansion tank, in order to improve the thermal efficiency.
