what is BOOSTER pump which is used in power plant?

Answer Posted / arul - mz

It is used to prevent cavitation. For a 80 MW power plant,
The BFP requires 10 KGf/sq.cm suction pressure for which u
have to place your DM tank & deaerator at 100 mtr., which
will incurr nore cost for the form to build the structure &
erect the piping.

To save cost without compromising on suction pressure for
BFP, we require Booster pump.... :-)
