ABSTRACT:
A method of recovering heat energy during blowdown of a steam boiler is described wherein thermal energy is recovered both from flash steam produced by blowdown water and the blowdown water itself. The flash steam is preferably condensed in the feedwater (or any open vented water tank) so as to recover the water volume of the flash steam in addition to its heat energy.
