Any cost effective way to pipe a medium pressure steam trap discharge into a pumped condesate return line? Or are folks still just simply creating site leaching wells to handle this discharge?
The critical pressure of the flashed condensate at the connection point of the steam trap discharge line, must be grater than the pressure in the pumped condesate return line, in order to achieve the discharge of the steam trap. The critical pressure value depends of the resistance coefficient of the trap and its discharge line and the saturation pressure.
