    The course objectives are:

    • Identify the steam parameters that a boiler must produce according to its industrial application and that must be measured to evaluate its efficiency condition.
    • Recognize and justify the design of the main types of boilers and their components according to the application processes.
    • Recognize the need and design requirements for boilers and their complementary equipment (water, air and fuel supply and treatment, and smoke emission).
    • Recognize the functions of the control and protection systems that ensure efficient and safe operation of a boiler.
    • Understand the need to follow specific commissioning, start-up, operation and shutdown protocols and regular diagnostic and maintenance programs for boiler components, under normal or emergency operating conditions.
    • Learn about the main causes and manifestations of failure of the pressure body elements (tubes and drums), insulators and refractories, water and steam quality, control and protection systems, pumps, fans, filters and separators.
    • Understand the need to know, practice and update themselves in the use of safety elements and procedures in normal and emergency operating situations.
