The key difference between vapor and steam is that vapor is a generally used term while steam is the technical and specific term. A shared attribute between vapor and steam is the point of origin or how it is formed. Steam and other kinds of vapor are often made by evaporation or with other means or application of heat.
When we talk about CFBC in the area of industrial boiler, it usually means the circulating fluidized bed combustion. The circulating fluidized bed (CFB) is a type of fluidized bed combustion that utilizes a recirculating loop for even greater efficiency of combustion.
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.
Combustion is a process which needs constant air supply for its survival, but as we move up the earth i.e. at higher altitudes, things aren’t the same as they used to be at sea level. Due to decreased air density at higher altitude, it will consume the same volume of air but will not consume the same mass of air.
This results in less fuel consumption & less steam generation rate. Due to the reduction of mass flow of gases through tubes of a steam boiler, convective heat transf...
Low-pressure boilers operate at a lower pressure and reach lower temperatures than high-pressure steam boilers. Water in low-pressure boilers is not heated beyond 250ºF, and the steam pressure does not exceed 15 psi (pounds per square inch).
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.
The efficiency of a coal-fired boiler depends on the loss of the boiler, the best efficiency in the boiler can be achieved if the losses are kept to the minimum. Since 50% of the losses are dependent on the fuel and ambient condition, the best efficiency can be achieved by properly tuning the other 50%, i.e. mainly carbon loss and dry gas loss.
The chain grate is the combustion equipment of coal-fired steam boiler. There are three main types and structures: chain belt grate, scale grate and beam grate.
