To achieve this, it is important to take care of the following aspects of the sample: A well designed SWAS must ensure that the sample is representative until the point of analysis. These parameters include pH, conductivity, silica, sodium, dissolved oxygen, phosphate and chlorides. A well designed Steam and Water Analysis system (SWAS) can help in monitoring the critical parameters in the steam. The steam reaching the turbines need to be ultra-pure and hence needs to be monitored for its quality. Steam and water analysis system (SWAS) Ĭorrosion and erosion are major concerns in thermal power plants operating on steam. In power stations, it is usually used to analyze boiler steam and water to ensure the water used to generate electricity is clean from impurities which can cause corrosion to any metallic surface, such as in boiler and turbine. Steam and water analysis system ( SWAS) is a system dedicated to the analysis of steam or water.
