SWAS stands for various terms. Discover the full forms, meanings, and possible interpretations of SWAS across different fields and industries.
A Steam Water Analyzing System (SWAS) is a system used in power plants to continuously monitor and analyze the quality of water and steam used in the power generation cycle. The SWAS is a critical component of the power plant's water treatment and control system, as it provides real-time information about the quality of water and steam to optimize plant performance and prevent equipment damage.
The SWAS typically includes a series of sensors, probes, and analyzers that measure various parameters, such as pH, conductivity, dissolved oxygen, silica, sodium, and other impurities, in the feedwater, steam, and condensate streams. The data collected by the SWAS is used to monitor the water and steam quality and adjust the water treatment processes as needed to maintain the desired water chemistry conditions.
