Condensate Polishing Unit (CPU)

A condensate polisher is a device used to filter water condensed from steam as part of the steam cycle, for example in a conventional or nuclear power plant (powdered resin or deep bed system).Condensate polishers are used to maintain a proper quality of water by removing impurities from return condensate. The decision to polish return condensate for re-use is purely economical. The condensate can be returned to an ultra pure state by simple polishing rather than using fresh make up process water.The spent wash evaporation condensate and distillation plant spent lees will be treated in condensate polishing unit (CPU) and treated water will be reused for distillery cooling water or for fermentation process (molasses dilution as make-up water).
