Condensing boilers are water heaters fueled by gas or oil. They achieve high efficiency (typically greater than 90% on the higher heating value) by condensing water vapour in the exhaust gases and so recovering its latent heat of vaporisation, which would otherwise have been wasted., which would otherwise have been wasted.

22/8/2017 · Manufacturers today offer fully condensing hydronic boilers, often used for space or process heating. These use advanced heat exchangers, usually in series, to reduce the temperature of boiler exhaust below the condensing point, typically around 130°F (55°C). The cooler the return water, the higher will be the unit efficiency.

A condensate neutralizer is a tank or a vessel, which is installed in line with a condensate drain from a condensing boiler, water heater or furnace (before it enters the sewer). It's filled with media which raises the pH level of the condensate, making it safe to discharge into the sewage or septic system.
