Steam production in nickel processing plant is an absolute need to support process and equipment. Nickel production fluctuated against time as the consequence of problems that occur during production. This makes boiler operation cost to become far from efficient. Thus, the combination of boilers operation is required in order to produce steam that match to the nickel production with the main objective to save the operating cost. <br /> <br /> <br /> This research work has the main goal to get some operational combination of some boilers with the main criteria minimum production cost and steam quality. <br /> <br /> <br /> Finally, the result of combination of boilers operation is proposed based on the required steam quality needed during the process with the minimum operation cost. For steam flow 15 ton/hour until 25 ton/hour.
