1 Temporary Steam Plant Guidelines Presented by Jack Muscia Rental Business Development Manager Indeck Power Equipment Company

2 Are You Prepared for Possible Steam Interruptions? Management expects 24/7 operations. Do you have contingency plans in place? Do you have temporary tie-ins installed? Is the equipment provider located in Illinois?

3 Hospitals Require the Services with no Interruption Sterilization Humidification Heating Hot Water

4 Some of the Reasons for a Temporary Steam Plant are Unplanned Outages Planned Outages Winter Loads Delays Bringing New Plant On-line

5 A Typical Unplanned Outage Reason: Emergency Boiler Rental Capacity: (4) 70,000 PPH Type: Trailer-Mounted Boilers Design Pressure: 350 psi Burner: Low NOx

6 A Planned Outage Example Reason: Continuous Operations Capacity: (4) 75,000 PPH Type: Trailer-Mounted Boilers Design Pressure:750psi/750F

7 Temporary Steam Plant Planning Stages Capacity Operating pressure Steam temp (saturated or superheat) Fuel type 1 month 3 month 6 month 12 month plus Weekday vs. weekend Winter vs. summer months Holiday vs. nonholiday

8 Delivery Timing - Winter Shipment (1) 60,000 PPH trailermounted watertube boiler being shipped for temporary process steam.

9 Next Steps in the Planning Stages Boiler Placement treated feedwater Boiler chemicals Electrical & Fuel Steam Blow downs Instrument air Varies with AQMD Permit to construct Permit to operate Permit details: - timing - cost - source test - variances

10 Final Planning Stages Review and implement a HAZOP procedure Request descriptions and drawings from equipment supplier Ideal to Implement a Master Agreement Program between Lessor & Lessee

12 Planning Stages - Equipment Offerings Deaerators Feedwater Pumps Demineralizers, Water Softeners, Chemical FS Blowdown Tanks Diesel Generators Valves Controls

13 Auxiliary Equipment Deaerators Economizers Water Softeners

14 Planning Stages Boiler Types

15 Complete Mobile Steam Plants System Components: firetube boiler, feed system, water softener, and blowdown separator Steam Flows: 8,625 PPH to 10,500 PPH (250/300 BHP) Pressure: 15 psig to 250 psig

16 Mobile Boiler: Drawing

17 Saturated Watertube Trailers Steam Flows: 24,000 PPH to 80,000 PPH Pressure: 125 psig to 750 psig

18 ,000 PPH Watertube Boilers

19 40,000 PPH Rental Boiler: Drawing

20 Qualifying a Rental Boiler Company How long have they been in business? Types of boilers offered? Where is service support out of? Availability and when can they deliver? Rental term / duration (price points)?

21 Qualifying a Rental Boiler Company Ask for references? What is condition of the rental boiler? Do they offer ancillary equipment? What s required from Lessee to obtain a boiler rental?

22 What s Required to Rent? Purchase Order Signed Contract & Insurance Certificate Rental Monies & Security Deposit Boiler Rental

23 Lessee/Lessor Scope Purchase Order: Lessee Signed Lease Rental Agreement: Lessee / Lessor Certificate of Insurance: Lessee Tax exemption or resale certificates: Lessee Freight arrangements / O & M manual: Lessor Coordinate start-up service: Lessee / Lessor Other installation and operating requirements: Lessee Future: Implement a Master Rental Agreement between Lessee / Lessor

24 Common Questions How long since the boiler was last inspected and tested? When do rental charges begin and end? What equipment and supplies are included in rental charges? Do start up charges apply? Certificates of Insurance?

25 Common Questions (continued) Who provides the oil pump / tanks? Who supplies the gas regulator? Who provides the smokestacks / EPA ports? Who pays the freight? Who makes freight arrangements?

26 Common Questions (continued) Who provides the hookup? Who supplies the utilities? What about feedwater treatment? How should boilers be operated? How about disconnecting? How is boiler to be prepared for shipment? Loading / unloading preparations?

27 Final Common Questions (continued) Heat tracing and insulation? What is shipped loose for field-installation?

28 Heat Tracing and Insulation Drum heads insulated Feedwater piping heat traced and insulated Heat trace and insulation for economizer piping by Lessee 75,000 PPH Trailer-Mounted Watertube

29 What is on a Trailer-Mounted Boiler? Back Front Valves
