We have briefly covered the fuel that is used for biomass heating already, but there are more details that will help you decide on which is best for you and your requirements. It is important to think about which biomass boiler fuel will work well for your home, as well as the logistics of sourcing your fuel on a regular basis. Let’s take a look at the main types of biomass fuel below:
A condensing boiler can condense the water vapour in the flue gases and withstand the corrosive and acidic qualities of the flue gas condensate. Although most boilers can condense the flue gasses, only boilers that have heat exchangers constructed from materials able to withstand the corrosion should be used in condensing application. Condensing boilers with primary and secondary heat exchanger do not work well as they are not able to fully condense and defeat the purpose of using a condensing boiler. Also, boilers with this arrangement are prone to condensation in the primary heat exchanger at lower firing rate which can cause damage to the heat exchanger.
One of the biggest issues related to natural gas explosions is that in the industrial world, people just don’t understand that natural gas piping repairs are different from other piping repairs.
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.
To prevent scale formation from low remaining levels of hardness which may have escaped treatment. Sodium phosphate is normally used for this, and causes the hardness to precipitate to the bottom of the boiler where it can be blown down.
Three-pass steam boilers are so-called because the combustion gases that are produced inside them in the burner go round a circuit that has three parts before leaving it:
When determining how much space should be between steam boilers, serviceability should be at the top of your mind. Sure, you want to save space, but you also want to make sure you have plenty of elbow room to service your boiler properly.
One of the most crucial factors that will determine how you space your boiler units is whether your boiler system is being installed in a new construction facility or an existing building that is being retrofitted.
While a new construction giv...
As their name implies, hot water boilers operate by being completely filled with hot water. On the other hand, steam boilers are usually only filled approximately 3/4th of the way full, while the top quarter is reserved for steam.
