The integration of a biomass system is relatively simple. In most cases the systems are retro fitted and replace a fossil fuel boiler. The biomass boiler replaces the existing fossil fuel boiler, but the downstream heating system will remain the same, so there is no need to replace the radiators or whatever emitters are in place.
The most obvious use of boilers in any building, including hospitals, is typically heating for the facility. A reliable steam boiler is one of the most economical ways to provide heat across a large space, especially one with multiple floors.
On a steam raising boiler there are three clear applications for level monitoring devices:
1) Level control - To ensure that the right amount of water is added to the boiler at the right time.
From wood burning to pellet-firing biomass, alternative fuel boilers and solid fuel fired boilers offer environmentally friendly energy options and cost efficiencies. With the push to become less reliant on fossil fuels, alternative fuel boilers provide a way for plant managers to save money on fuel sources as well as meet tightening emission regulation standards.
Shell boilers may be defined as those boilers in which the heat transfer surfaces are all contained within a steel shell. Shell boilers may also be referred to as "fire tube" or "smoke tube" boilers because the products of combustion pass through the boiler tubes, which in turn transfer heat to the surrounding boiler water.
