GE's Boiler Solutions bundles boiler chemicals, water treatment equipment, and services into one package to meet your specific feedwater requirements.
Feedwater treatment chemicals scavenge oxygen and reduce corrosion in the feedwater circuit - protecting the equipment against damage and reducing the potential for unscheduled downtime. These treatments also reduce the amount of metal oxides entering the boiler to maintain clean boiler tube surfaces and improve fuel efficiency.
Boiler internal treatment chemicals maintain clean boiler tube surfaces and minimize corrosion - reducing the chance of overheating or failure. Control of corrosion and deposition helps increase plant reliability and availability, protects equipment, and reduces maintenance and fuel costs. In addition to controlling deposition and reducing corrosion, some treatment chemicals can reduce the tendency for boiler water to carry over to the steam - protecting superheaters and steam turbines from damage.
Fuel treatment chemicals can reduce deposition or slagging and improve combustion. They help protect equipment from failure due to corrosion, increase fuel efficiency, and minimize maintenance costs. Fuel treatment chemicals may also help you meet important environmental regulations. The choice of which chemical to use depends on the type of fuel and the goals of the treatment.

REVERSE OSMOSIS CHEMICALS
Reverse osmosis (RO) membrane performance can be negatively impacted by impurities that build up on the membrane surface during operations. Suspended solids, microorganisms and mineral scale can foul membrane elements. These deposits can cause loss in output and/or rejection levels and reduce total system performance.
GE Water & Process Technologies offers a wide array of products to help you improve the performance of your membranes:
Coagulants
Coagulants and flocculants from GE can increase prefiltration efficiency and help improve productivity in membrane systems for worry-free RO feedwater.
Antiscalants
The Hypersperse™ pretreatment program from GE is designed to eliminate scale and reduce fouling in membrane systems, regardless of the feedwater source.
Dechlorination
GE Water Technologies' line of dechlorination products include a convenient, ready to use formulation which is NSF approved for potable applications and an economical dry formulation for on-site preparation.
Cleaners
Successful membrane cleaning relies on both the effectiveness of the cleaning compounds and the design and operation of the cleaning equipment. GE can offer suggestions on cleaning system design and cleaning procedures to ensure the most effective results.
Microbiological Control
Effective control of bacterial growth and slime.
