Boiler feed tank energy recapture system

A method for recovering waste heat in a boiler system comprising:

• heating a liquid under pressure in a closed vessel to create a first steam;
• delivering said first steam to a steam utilizing device;
• wherein said steam utilizing device produces a second steam and a condensate after said steam utilizing device utilizes said first steam;
• delivering said condensate and said second steam through a second heat exchanger to a feed water tank to be collected as a feed water, wherein said feed water tank includes a feed water portion and a low pressure steam portion, and wherein said second heat exchanger includes a conduit;
• wherein said feed water is to be delivered to said closed vessel;
• wherein said feed water forms a feed water steam in said low pressure steam portion while said feed water is stored within said feed water portion of said feed water tank;
• wherein at least one side of said second heat exchanger is in contact with said feed water in said feed water portion;
• and
• wherein said conduit delivers said condensate and said second steam into said low pressure steam portion;
• and,
• delivering a make-up water through a first heat exchanger having a serpentine conduit through which said make-up water flows upward to said feed water tank to be collected as said feed water;
• wherein said make-up water is heated by the heat of said feed water steam as said make-up water is being delivered to said feed water tank;
• and,
• wherein said feed water within said feed water tank is heated by the heat of said condensate and the heat of said second steam as said condensate and said second steam are being delivered to said feed water tank.
