All-volatile treatment (AVT) uses volatile alkalising agents exclusively and is permitted only if demineralised BFW [boiler feedwater] is fed. AVT restricts the acid conductivity of the BW [boiler water] to [less than] 5 [microseconds]/cm for boiler with max. heat transfer of 250 kW/m² and for heat transfer above to [less than] 3 [microseconds]/cm. Due to the distribution rate (concentration in steam phase to concentration in water phase) of volatile chemicals, lower pressure liquids are frequently insufficiently alkalised … All volatile chemicals show excellent alkalisation effect at room temperature (during lab analysis) … 2, record 1, English, - all%2Dvolatile%20treatment
