Steam condensate is recovered by steam traps and recycled for use as boiler feed water, because of its low___________________?
Correct answer: C. All A., B. and C.
- A. Hardness
- B. Dissolved solids content
- C. All A., B. and C.
- D. Suspended solids content
Explanation
Condensate has been formed from relatively pure steam, so it normally contains very little hardness, dissolved material, or suspended matter. This makes it valuable boiler feed water after suitable monitoring and treatment.
