There will a panel and workshop on important HRSG themes as well as discussion periods on questions from the participants.

The following represent some of the topics that will be covered:

• HRSG tube failures (HTF) (FAC, thermal fatigue, creep-fatigue, under-deposit corrosion)
• Pressure part failure mechanisms related to condensate, drains and attemperator systems
• Identifying and avoiding damaging thermal transients in pressure parts
• Water treatment and cycle chemistry for HRSGs
• HRSG preservation for different operational modes
• Behaviour and measurement of total iron for operation and daily start/stop
• Material selection and new material applications
• Optimization of plant controls
• Environmental aspects
• Fast Start HRSGs
• Balance of plant including the steam turbine, condenser, and air-cooled condenser.

This IAPWS conference is organized by BHT GmbH.
