Condensate polishing controls corrosion by removing dissolved salts, silica, and other corrosive impurities from the condensate. These impurities, if left untreated, can react with metal surfaces inside boilers, turbines, and piping systems, leading to corrosion and damage. By using ion exchange resins and filtration, condensate polishing systems ensure that the water or condensate is free from these harmful contaminants, reducing the risk of corrosion. Additionally, the high-purity water produced by condensate polishing helps maintain a stable pH level, further minimizing the likelihood of corrosive reactions in industrial equipment.
