Using artificially softened water in the heating circuit with your boiler can potentially cause issues and is not recommended.
Artificially softened water contains high levels of sodium ions, which can cause corrosion of the boiler and other components in the heating system. This corrosion can damage the boiler and other components, leading to leaks and reduced efficiency.
In addition, artificially softened water can cause problems with water pressure and flow rate, which can i...
Gas-fired boilers use gaseous flammable gases (including liquefied combustible gases) as fuel. These gaseous fuels have relatively higher calorific value and less pollutant emissions, and are gradually becoming popular among corporate users.
Drying the moisture in the fuel of a biomass-fired boiler is important to ensure efficient combustion and prevent issues such as fuel bridging, clumping, and poor boiler performance. Here are some methods that can be used to dry the moisture in biomass fuel:
1. Sun drying: This method involves spreading the biomass fuel, such as wood chips or sawdust, in a thin layer in a sunny, well-ventilated area. The sun's heat and wind will help to evaporate the moisture in the fuel.
2. Fo...
Biomass boilers do produce emissions when they burn organic materials such as wood chips, pellets, or agricultural waste. The exact type and amount of emissions depend on various factors such as the type of fuel used, combustion efficiency, and air pollution control technologies in place. However, with proper design and operation, biomass boilers can emit significantly less pollutants than traditional fossil fuel boilers, making them a more environmentally friendly option for heat and power...
During the inspection, the management personnel of the boiler using unit and the monitor of the stoker shall be present to assist in the inspection and provide other materials required by the inspector.
The water level of steam drum can reflect the condition between feedwater quantity and evaporation quantity of boiler. If the two parameters maintain a stable balance, the water level also remains unchanged; otherwise, the water level will rise or fall. Besides, there is also a false water level phenomenon. How do we understand the false water level?
Load tracking is an important feature of industrial boilers that helps to optimize their performance and efficiency. Load tracking refers to the ability of a boiler to adjust its output in response to changes in demand.
In an industrial setting, the demand for steam or hot water can vary significantly depending on factors such as production schedules, weather conditions, and other variables. Load tracking allows the boiler to adjust its output to match the changing demand, ensuring that...
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 ...
