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
Duration

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.

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 and 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.
Duration
2 days held at either M&M or at the clientâs site, subject to
trainer availability
