Boilers are one of the main application to produce high-pressure steam for process applications and power generation. Operation and maintenance of Boiler are critical to ensure a safe and efficient plant environment.

Boilers are pressure vessels designed to heat water or produce steam, which can then be used to provide space heating or service water heating to a building.  In most commercial building heating applications, the heating source in the boiler is a natural gas fired burner.

In this course you will gain a comprehensive understanding of commercial, industrial and utility boiler systems.it will covers the principle of operation of steam boilers, types and the main components of steam boilers. It will also focus on the study of correct operation and routine maintenance and safety. Participants will also learn how to improve boiler efficiency, energy cost saving methods and maximise safety.

At the end of this course you will be able to:

  • Understand NDT and maintenance procedures
  • Routine operation and emergency procedures
  • Boilers types, components and functions
  • Understand the importance of the draft system for proper operation
  • Improve understanding of control and protection system
  • Combustion process and draft system for steam boilers
  • Safety valve & burner management System
  • Understand the best practice operation procedures
