Steam is used not only to run str eam-turbine-driven power generators but also to affect the chemical proces ses wherein water molecules at high temperatures are required for particul ar transformational reactions.\n\nHow does an industrial steam boiler work ?\n\nWhile production of steam is a very simple process – just boil wate r over an extended period– industrial steam production is complex and re quires sophisticated engineered steam generation plants with or without st eam turbine generators (STGs).\n\nHow do you maintain a steam boiler?\n\nI ndustrial steam is fraught with major hazards such as steam burning the hu man skin if exposed uncontrollably\, steam condensate hammering the pipeli nes and damaging the assets and so on. Hence\, steam generation with the a ssociated operation and maintenance of steam plants is a specialized area. \n\nThis Xcelerate training course will empower attendees with comprehensi ve knowledge about Industrial Steam Boiler System\, Operation and Maintena nce.\n\n \;\n\nLearning Objectives\n\n Understand the concepts around Industrial Steam Boiler System\, Operation and Maintenance.\n Comprehend the chemical and physical properties of steam\, including its hazards.\n Learn about steam generation thermodynamic cycles e.g.\, Rankine Cycle\n Discover the advantages and disadvantages of steam\n Understand the layo ut of equipment in a steam generation plant\n Learn the operational proce dures including safe shutdown\, turnaround\, and the start-up of a steam p lant.\n Orient on safety preparation for the turnaround of a steam plant. \n Understand the inspection and maintenance aspects of a steam plant.\n Appreciate the importance of personnel protection equipment in steam plan t\n Comprehend managing emergencies in the steam plant.\n Under legal\, regulatory and insurance implications\n\nTraining Methodology\n\n Lecture s (Tutor-assisted online and classroom as per prevailing situations/requir ements)\n Seminars &\; Presentations\n Group Discussions and workshop s\n Assignments\n Case Studies &\; Functional Exercises\n\nBenefits f or Your Organization\n\n Ensure a trouble-free operation\, inspection and maintenance of steam Plants\n Appreciate hazards of steam and safety aro und it\n Confidently use steam to produce economically crucial power\n I mproved financial performance due to a well-maintained steam plant\n\nBene fits for You\n\n Confident to identify and implement in their professiona l careers the underlying success factors for safe\, efficient and trouble- free operation and maintenance of steam Plants.\n Emerge as a skilled pro fessional for Steam Plant e.g.\, production manager\, inspection manager\, maintenance manager and the associated technicians\, operators and engine ers.\n Prepare themselves to acquire boiler competence certification subs equently.\n The knowledge and skill provided in this course are useful fo r legal\, insurance and regulation personnel as well to interface the stea m plants as per their areas of responsibility\n\nTarget Audience\n\n Trai nees/intern/fresh employees who want to take up Design\, Operation\, Inspe ction\, Maintenance and HSE management of Industrial Steam Boiler System\, as their career.\n All Steam Plant workers\, supervisors and managers wh o want to promote productivity of operation\, inspection\, maintenance\, h ealth &\; safety in their steam plants.\n All employees/workers who ha ve been on rotation from their existing departments to the Steam Plant (Pl anning\, operation\, Inspection\, and maintenance).\n\nCourse Outline\n\nB asics/Concepts About Steam and Its Generation \n\n A short history of bo iler design\n Why use steam?
