Boiler Plant Operator Edgewood, MD
• Responsible for starting, stopping,adjusting,operating, maintaining and performing operational repairs and duties on single and
multiple fuel powered boilers.
• Responsible for operating, adjusting and monitoring all auxiliary equipment and pollution control equipment associated with the
boilers in the area.
• Maintain boilers that use oil and gas to produce high-pressure steamand hot water required for heating operations at the Edgewood

2. Base.
• Operator of high-pressure water tube boilers paying very close attention to boiler variables to maintain boiler efficiency.
• Maintain and monitor boiler combustion rates to ensure compliance with environmental laws and regulations.
• Monitor, adjust and control all phases ofboiler plant operations.
• Use manual, automatic, and microprocessor control systems to make the necessary adjustments for proper boiler operation. Also use
meters, gauges,and computer-generated data to determine boiler adjustments that need to be made to maintain boiler efficiency and
plant load demands.
• Perform hourly readings on gauges,meters, detectors,recorders, boiler water level indicators, and analog displays to detect danger
signals on the boilers.
• Responsible for analyzing and testing boiler feedwater, boiler blowdown water and condensate water to ensure proper water quality.
• Give direction to lower grade workers to test feed water, boiler water and condensate using standard chemical tests to be sure water
quality and boiler efficiency remains high. It is very important to prevent boiler water impurities from settling on the surface of the
boiler tubes because this degrades heat transfer in the boiler and dramatically reduces boiler efficiency.
• Determine the treatment and the chemicals to be used to control chemical concentrations,remove boiler impurities, entrapped gases,
and stabilize fluctuating water conditions in the boilers.
• Monitor the Energy Management and Control System (EMCS) console that gives notification of any problems with the boilers.
• Perform boiler plant equipment mechanical duties such as but not inclusive to: installs, maintains, and repair large complex boilers,
heating plants,and auxiliary equipment.
• Inspect and repair steamdistribution system, condensate return systemand auxiliary equipment to maintain high efficiency and
safety standards.These systems include pressure reducing stations, steamtraps, expansion joints and large steammains inside and
outside of the boiler plants.
• Perform annual inspection of boilers and all auxiliary equipment and steam headers for preventive maintenance to ensure boiler
efficiency and plant safety.
• Troubleshoot all problems that are encountered with the boilers to ensure efficiency, reliability and safety.
• Check and test the operation of all safety equipment associated with the boiler plant such as fire extinguishers, flame scanners,high
pressure controllers, low water cut outs,proper purge timers, and air flow for boiler light off and relight.
11/2010 – 12/1012 United States Department of Agriculture
Boiler Plant Operator Beltsville, MD
• Operated and maintained all boiler plant equipment and auxiliary equipment such as pumps, motors, forced draft fans, induced draft
fans, air compressors, deaerators,fuel oil heaters,feed water heaters and water softening systems.
• Adjusted and changed fuel feeds and fan speed to maintain firebox variables so the plant runs efficiently and remained
environmentally compliant operating in a safe condition.
• Observed and took readings on gauges,meters, detectors,boiler water gauge glass indicators, recorders and any electronic indicators
that could signal dangerin the boiler operation.
• Directed lower grade workers to test feed water, boiler water and condensate using standard chemical tests.
• Determined the treatment and chemicals to be used to remove impurities, control chemical concentrations and to remove entrapped
gases to ensure stable water conditions in the boiler.
• Monitored equipment for the wastewater treatment plant that consists ofpumps, chlorinators, bar screens, sedimentation tanks,
digesters and clarifiers.
• Learned the process flow, took various samples, performed tests such as chlorine, dissolved oxygen, settleable solids, BOD, pH, and
many other tests and samples.
