Agglomeration problem mainly occurs on the fireside in the fluidized bed boilers. Agglomeration is basically the ash-related problem of biomass-fired boilers. Ashes which are formed from high-sulfur and low-ash fuel agglomerate if they are prone to sulfating condition for long time.
Steam is very widely applied in the textile industry. It is commonly used in many subsectors and processes: manufacturing fabrics, manufacturing textile products…
Whether it's an industrial hot water boiler or an industrial steam boiler, they all depend on fuel to run. The process of heating is initiated as the burner heats or eventually evaporates the water inside of it. It's actually transported via intricate pipe systems.
Steam boilers transport through the pressure created by the process, while hot water boilers use pumps to move heat throughout the system. Eventually the condensed steam or cooled water returns back through the pipes to the boiler system, so the heating process can be initiated again.
As the boiler creates heat energy, a byproduct of the process — flue gases — are exited through a chimney system. Because of this, regulating the industrial boiler emissions is a very serious issue.
The packaged boiler is so called because it comes as a complete package with burner, level controls, feedpump and all necessary boiler fittings and mountings. Once delivered to site it requires only the steam, water, and blowdown pipework, fuel supply and electrical connections to be made for it to become operational.
Biomass-fired boilers can burn many fuel types, but they all belong to biomass energy, such as corn stalks, wheat straws, straws, peanut shells, corn cobs, cotton stalks, soybean stalks, weeds, branches, leaves, sawdust, bark and other solid waste of wood or furniture factories.
Due to the development of boiler technology and relevant policies, gas-fired boilers using eco-friendly fuels are often applied for heating. For thermal power companies, cost is the most important issue.
The thermal oil heater, also called the organic heat carrier boiler, is a kind of once-through boiler developed based on the forced circulation design concept. With gas, oil or coal as the fuel and heat conducting oil as the medium, the thermal oil heater adopts the thermal oil pump to force the medium conducting the circulation in the liquid phase. The medium transfers the heat energy to the heating equipment and then returns to the furnace for being reheated. The thermal oil heater has the advantages of high-temperature and low-pressure heating and precise control of the medium.
The condensing boiler burns carbon-based fuel with oxygen in order to produce steam and carbon dioxide. The gases that escape this process (through a chimney) as exhaust are called flue gases. The major advantage is that they offer up to a 90% improvement in terms of efficiency when compared to standard gas boilers. Overall, condensing boilers are considered much more efficient in contrast to non-condensing gas boilers, a major consideration for any business running on a budget.
