Your deaerator has one job: keep oxygen away from your boiler. The catch — it can be failing at that job while looking completely normal from the catwalk.

New on the blog: how to test your feedwater for dissolved oxygen, why a high reading points to a mechanical problem (a worn spray nozzle or a collapsed tray) rather than a chemical one, and a DA health checklist to keep it honest.

Did you know steam carries most of its usable energy in a phase change, not just temperature?

When steam condenses, it releases latent heat, which is why it can transfer large amounts of energy quickly and evenly in industrial processes. That’s one reason steam remains one of the most effective heat-transfer mediums in manufacturing today.
