Steam Compressor (SC)
Flash steam forms in all steam plants, but it is often considered unusable due to its low pressure level. Featuring a highly efficient ejector and a pressure control valve, the TLV steam compressor offers an interesting alternative by compressing flash steam until it reaches a higher, usable pressure level. This process takes place without the need for auxiliary power or an electro-pneumatic control valve.
- In the ejector, motive steam at high pressure and aspirated steam at low pressure (such as flash steam) are mixed.
- In the diffuser, a medium pressure level is formed, flowing out of the ejector and supplied back to the system for further use.
- Direct reinjection of the flash steam to the steam system significantly reduces the steam production in the boiler.
