EPA has promulgated national emission standards for hazardous air pollutants from three major source categories: Industrial boilers, commercial and institutional boilers, and process heaters. The final emission standards for control of mercury, hydrogen chloride, particulate matter (as a surrogate for non-mercury metals), and carbon monoxide (as a surrogate for organic hazardous emissions) from coal-fired, biomass-fired, and liquid-fired major source boilers are based on the maximum achievable control technology. In addition, all major source boilers and process heaters are subject to a work practice standard to periodically conduct tune-ups of the boiler or process heater.
Three-drum boilers are a class of water-tube boiler used to generate steam, typically to power ships. They are compact and of high evaporative power, factors that encourage this use. Other boiler designs may be more efficient, although bulkier, and so the three-drum pattern was rare as a land-based stationary boiler.
The heat requirements of the building materials manufacturing process are very varied. A steam boiler plays a key role in the process of creating building materials. For example, materials like molded brick rely very much on steam heat from an industrial steam boiler in order to pressurize and harden the elements that make up the brick. Without exposure to that kind of heat and pressure, these materials would be a loose construction of sediment, rather than dependable, solid building components....
Steam and hot water play an integral role at several stages of the textile manufacturing process. Much of the manufacturing process requires the use of steam or hot water produced by industrial boilers, textile engineering, bulk fabric production, garment manufacturing, or other textile processes.
Pre-treatment
There are several steps in this process, and some of them require both steam and hot water that is clean and pure, which requires an efficient steam boiler.

The primary use of steam boiler in tire manufacturing is the vulcanizing process — the curing of the rubber needs steam to provide heat energy. Curing is a process in which chemical or physical action takes place for harder, tougher and more stable linkage.
As we know tires are the most important part of our vehicle because in all the parts of vehicle tires only remain in contact with the earth hence tires carry all the load of vehicle and passengers.
Vulcanization is a p...
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...
Today, there are two main types of green boilers used in different industries: biomass boilers and condensing boilers. Each of these operates in completely different ways to reduce your carbon footprint.
Biomass Boilers
Biomass boilers operate by burning wood and other renewable organic materials to produce heat. There are automatic biomass boilers that control the amount of air and fuel that is used, making them even more efficient. To keep this boiler running, owners will need ample ...
Agglomeration problem mainly occurs on the fireside in the fluidized bed boilers. Agglomeration is basically the ash-related problem of biomass-fired boilers. Ashes which are formed from high-sulfur and low-ash fuel agglomerate if they are prone to sulfating condition for long time.
