If the pumps of a coal-fired boiler are not absorbing water, it could be due to several reasons. It's essential to diagnose the issue accurately for an effective solution. Here are some common causes:
Air Locks in the Pump or Suction Line: If there is trapped air within the pump or the suction line, it can prevent the pump from creating the necessary vacuum to draw water.
Low Water Level in the Feed Tank: If the water level in the feed tank is too low, the pump may not have enough water to dra...
Serious coal leakages in the fire grate of coal-fired boilers can be caused by several factors, each impacting the efficiency and safety of the boiler operation. Understanding and addressing these issues is crucial for maintaining optimal performance. Here are some common causes:
Wear and Tear: Over time, the fire grate components can wear down due to the constant exposure to high temperatures and the abrasive nature of coal. This wear can create gaps through which coal can fall.
Improper Grat...
The arrival of the heating season makes us realize that improving the efficiency of heating coal-fired boilers is crucial for comfortable indoor warmth. As a well-known heating equipment manufacturer, ZOZEN Boiler is committed to providing efficient and reliable coal-fired boiler solutions. The coal-fired chain grate boilers produced by ZOZEN can be divided into four series: SZL series double drum longitudinal chain grate boiler, DZL series single drum longitudinal chain grate boiler, DHL series...
Volatile matter in fuel, particularly in solid fuels like coal or biomass, plays a crucial role in the combustion process within boilers. Understanding the effect of volatile matter can help optimize the boiler operation for better efficiency and emissions. Here are the impacts of volatile matter on boiler combustion:
Ignition and Combustion Stability: High volatile matter content aids in the easy ignition of the fuel. As volatile components release and ignite rapidly when the fuel is heated, t...
What are the procedures and formalities for the retrofit of a coal-fired boiler?
The procedures and formalities for retrofitting a coal-fired boiler can vary depending on the specific regulations and requirements of the region or country. However, there are some general steps that are typically involved in the retrofit process:
1. Feasibility Study: The first step is to conduct a feasibility study to assess the technical and economic viability of the retrofit project. This invo...
Proper shutdown procedures are crucial for ensuring the safe and efficient operation of a coal-fired steam boiler. The following steps should be followed when shutting down a coal-fired steam boiler:
1. Reduce the load: Before shutting down the boiler, the load should be reduced to its minimum level. This will help to prevent sudden drops in pressure and temperature, which could cause damage to the boiler and its components.
2. Shut off the fuel supply: The fuel supply to the boiler should be ...
Comparing different types of boilers is an essential step in choosing the most suitable and efficient heating solution for your needs. Gas boilers, coal boilers, and biomass boilers all have their pros and cons, and it's important to understand their differences to make an informed decision.
ZOZEN's gas boiler
Gas boilers, like those offered by ZOZEN, have several advantages over coal and biomass boilers:
1, Efficiency: Gas boilers are highly efficient and can achieve efficiencies of up to ...
When it comes to coal fired boilers, the rear arch plays a critical role in the combustion process. The main function of the rear arch is to keep the fuel particles in suspension and prevent them from falling into the ash hopper, which can lead to incomplete combustion and decreased efficiency.
At ZOZEN, we understand the importance of a well-designed rear arch for coal fired boilers. That's why our coal fired boilers are equipped with advanced rear arch designs that enhance the combust...
