âThe two days spent at
your training facility were
very enjoyable for myself,
it certainly has increased
my knowledge on the
subject of steam. The
course was very well
put together, presented
& backed up with a vast
package of information to
read up on at my leisure
âWe all found it extremely
interesting and very useful
and I got from the training
exactly what I required.

BOILER HOUSE
RISK ASSESSMENT
M&M Training offer an
independent risk assessment of
your Boiler House, carried out
by professional engineers who
provide you with a written report.
Should there be any issues,
these will be identified within the
report by the use of a simple
traffic light system.
The report will also recommend
any necessary control measures
needed, and the reduced level
of risk shown within the traffic
light system.
We are then able to offer our
services to help you take the
necessary steps, to keep all
personnel and the surrounding
property safe.
Risk Assessment in line
with BG01 Guidance on Safe
Operation of Boilers
Within our detailed risk
assessment report we will
consider issues such as:
The likelihood and severity
of potential injuries
The location and layout
of the boiler room
Capability of
safety-related systems
Operational risks
Manning levels
Additional controls for remote or
unsupervised boiler operation
Review current installation
against latest guidelines
Recommend any amendments
to procedures to ensure plant
continues to be operated safely
Provide suggestions on
efficiency and energy savings

6. BOILER HOUSE RISK
ASSESSMENT TRAINING
COURSE
Who should attend?
This course is designed for all
managers of operators, contractors
and visitors to the boiler house.
Aims
To enable the responsible person with
risk assessment experience to be able to
undertake their own technical boiler house
risk assessment.
The technical boiler house risk
assessment is a legal requirement under
section 8 of the Pressure Systems Safety
Regulations (PSSR) 2000. There is also a
legal requirement under the Management
of Health & Safety at Work Regulations
(MHSWR) to undertake risk assessments.
The absence of any risk assessment is a
clear indication of legal non-compliance
and inadequate safety management. You
would have no defence in a Court of Law.
We aim to provide a sound
understanding of:
⢠Legal responsibilities
⢠Financial efficiency
⢠Ethical & moral compliance

STEAM BOILER WATER
TREATMENT COURSE
Who should attend?
Operators of industrial steam boilers and
Plant Managers who wish to understand
the importance of, and the methods of
ensuring appropriate water quality for
their boilers.
Aims
This course, which includes some
practical water testing exercises, will
enable the delegate to undertake the most
important regular tests on his/her boiler.
These tests should ideally be undertaken
on a daily basis, but do not eliminate
the need for periodic visits by a water
treatment specialist. As a result of these
tests, the delegate will be able to optimise
his/her boiler plant water treatment,
improving safety, efficiency and steam
quality.
Content
What is water & where does it come from?
Water impurities
Oxygen scavenging
Scale inhibition/sludge promotion
pH adjustment
Consequences of water impurities
in the boiler
Water treatment methods
Condensate
Boiler blowdown
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
Water sampling
Water testing
Records
Boiler water storage tanks
Steam injection
Level control
Venting
Chemical addition points
Boiler feed pumps and check valves
Health, Safety and Legal requirements
Correct dosage of chemicals is an
important factor in the safe operation
of a steam boiler. Inadequate injection
of chemicals has the potential to damage
the boiler, whereas excessive dosing
dictates high blowdown rates. In addition
to the consequent waste of chemicals,
excessive blowdown will waste useful
heat energy. Steam quality may also
be adversely affected by inappropriate
treatment, leading to poor and
inefficient processes.
