Condensate water extracted from flue gas is subjected to advanced treatment processes using highly efficient units. These systems are designed to significantly reduce the concentration of heavy metals and other contaminants, ensuring that the treated condensate meets stringent quality standards. The final water quality is suitable for reuse as boiler feed water or as supply water for district heating systems.

In addition to reuse, treated condensate also serves as make-up water for various operations within the flue gas cleaning process, such as quenching and cleaning of droplet separators.
A typical condensate treatment line includes the following key steps:
- Particle Filtration – for removal of suspended solids.
 - Ultrafiltration – to eliminate fine particulates and colloidal matter.
 - Reverse Osmosis – for deep purification, removing dissolved salts and trace contaminants.

This multi-stage approach ensures reliable water quality and supports sustainable water management within the plant.
With many references in flue gas condensation with or without heat pumps and combined or not to combustion air humidification, LAB is playing a key role in heat recovery for biomass and Waste-to-Energy plants.
