Liquid fuels mainly include petroleum, gas oil, kerosene, heavy oil, coal tar, gasoline, alcohol and so on. The liquid fuel is mainly composed of seven components: carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), ash (A) and moisture (M). It is characterized by high content of carbon and hydrogen and low moisture, so its calorific value is very high, usually 40600〜43100kJ/kg.
Different types of oil-fired boilers have different equipment composition. ZOZEN Boiler describes the composition of oil-fired boiler equipment aiming at WNS series and SZS series.
Heavy oil for industrial boilers, namely fuel oil, is mainly made from petroleum cracking residue and straight-run residue, which is characterized by high viscosity and contains many non-hydrocarbon compounds, gums and asphaltenes. Among them, the viscosity of industrial boiler special oil is an important performance index of fuel oil, and it is also the main basis for dividing fuel oil grades.
According to the Wikipedia, fuel oil (also known as heavy oil, marine fuel, bunker, furnace oil, or gasoil) is a fraction obtained from petroleum distillation. It includes distillates - the lighter fractions, and residues - the heavier fractions.
The term fuel oil generally includes any liquid fuel that is burned in a furnace or boiler to generate heat, or used in an engine to generate power.
A cornertube boiler is a type of natural circulation water-tube boiler which differentiates itself from other water tube boilers by its characteristic water-steam cycle and a pre-separation of heated steam from the steam-water mixture occurs outside the drum and the unheated downcomers.
There are many challenges and demands faced during the food processing, the choice of a steam boiler can make great difference in a company’s production. So, there are some tips for you to choose a steam boiler for a food processing facility.
Industrial food boilers generate steam or hot water to process, cook, or sanitize food products including meat, fruits, and vegetables. Nearly every aspect of our food supply chain to grocery stores and restaurants involves steam or hot water produced by a boiler in one way or another.
There’s a lot to carefully consider when you’re upgrading or replacing your facility’s equipment. Thermal oils tolerate higher temperatures than water-based formulas without boiling or unduly increasing system pressure.
Thermal fluid heating, and thermal oil systems, in particular, have several advantages. These advantages include:
Efficient industrial heating is important for a variety of reasons – both within your facility and its daily operations, a...
