Steam to operate the ejectors at the water plant is extracted at 185 psia from the reheat turbine. Condenasate from the ejectors at 90ºF is first heated by extracted steam to 213ºF., combined with brine heater condensate and deaerated. Makeup water from the feed water tanks is first demineralized and then deaerated. Normally, make-up from the water tanks is not required, since the ejector condensate should suffice to make up all losses. Deaerated condensate is pumped up to 2815 psia and returned to the boiler via steam-heated feed water heaters. -8-24-Epson Perfection 4870 Photo, 400 dpi, 8 bit, 14,723,072 byte
