Boiler is a kind of thermal energy conversion equipment composed of drum and furnace. It uses fuel combustion to heat water into steam or hot water to provide power for production or help auxiliary production. With the continuous improvement of industrial manufacturing technology, boiler's control has also changed from the traditional full manual operation to the present automatic intelligent control.
A well designed and operated biomass boiler burning fuel within the specification of the boiler should not produce any smoke, but black smoke may be produced if the fuel is too wet for the boiler. All biomass boilers produce some oxides of nitrogen (NOx), particularly nitrogen dioxide (NO2). While NOx emissions from gas boilers have been reduced significantly in recent years through the use of low NOx burners which burn at a temperature slightly below that at which NOx forms, the nature of biomass combustion, and the need to ensure the complete combustion of wood gases, means that combustion takes place at a temperature where atmospheric oxygen and nitrogen can chemically combine. The better the quality of the combustion control system on a biomass boiler, the lower the NOx emissions will be. In general, biomass boilers produce less NOx than oil boilers. Biomass boilers do not produce any oxides of sulphur (SOx).
Discharging high-temperature flue gas generated by a biomass-fired boiler efficiently and safely is crucial for boiler operation, environmental compliance, and energy recovery. These gases, if not handled properly, can lead to energy inefficiency and increase the emission of pollutants. ZOZEN Boiler, as a professional industrial boiler manufacturer, incorporates advanced technologies and strategies to manage and utilize high-temperature flue gases from biomass-fired boilers. Here's an overview o...

Proper exhaust management ensures that combustion gases are safely discharged, prevents back pressure, and maintains optimal combustion conditions. ZOZEN Boiler, with its extensive experience in designing and manufacturing industrial boilers and thermal oil heaters, employs a comprehensive approach to ensure efficient and safe exhaust systems. Here's ho...
Radiation and convection losses will vary with boiler type, size, and operating pressure. The losses are typically considered constant in BTU/hr, but become a larger percentage loss as the firing rate decreases. Boiler design factors that also impact efficiencies of the boiler are heating surface, flue gas passes, and design of the boiler and burner package.
Controlling the temperature of a thermal oil heater during operation is crucial for several reasons, directly impacting the efficiency, safety, and lifespan of the system. Thermal oil heaters, also known as hot oil heaters, are used in various industrial processes for heating applications. They operate by circulating thermal oil through a closed loop, transferring heat to a desired location. Here's why temperature control is essential in these systems:
1. Ensuring Operational Efficiency:
Optim...
If you notice water dripping from a gas-fired boiler's chimney, it could be due to condensation, which is a common issue in high-efficiency boilers. Here are some key reasons and explanations for this phenomenon:
Condensation of Flue Gases: Modern high-efficiency gas boilers are designed to extract as much heat as possible from the combustion gases before they are expelled through the chimney. This process can cool the gases to a point where the moisture in them condenses into water. This is mo...
If the burner motor of a gas-fired boiler is not running, several issues could be at play. Diagnosing the problem involves checking various components and systems. Here are some common causes:
Electrical Issues: Check if there's an electrical supply to the motor. A tripped circuit breaker, blown fuse, or loose wiring could interrupt power supply to the motor.
Faulty Motor: The motor itself could be malfunctioning. Over time, motors can wear out or burn out due to electrical issues or mechanica...
