What is a large-scale steam boiler? Generally, large-scale steam boilers mainly refer to steam boilers over 75 tons. Large-scale steam boilers can be divided into oil-fired boilers, gas-fired boilers, coal-fired boilers and biomass-fired boilers according to fuel. At present, the number of large-scale steam boilers used in the industry is still relatively large, among which they are used in chemical industry, food industry, industrial and mining enterprises and building materials enterprises.
In recent years, the state has stepped up efforts of prohibiting the traditional coal-fired boilers. Major enterprises keep up with the times and purchase various environmental protection boilers. Gas-fired boiler is currently the most popular environmental protection boiler. However, due to geographical limitations in some areas, natural gas is difficult to obtain, or the cost is too high, some enterprises will choose biomass steam boilers.
Based on the different methods involved in ash deposit over the heating surface, two types of ash deposition are observed, i.e. slagging and the fouling. Boiler slagging and fouling are two main factors that adversely affect the efficiency of boilers.
A steam boiler is a water containing vessel which transfers heat generated by a fuel source into steam, which is then piped and directed to points where it could be used while running industrial equipment. The basic idea here is to convert water to steam using a source of heat.
Coal-fired boilers are applied in various industries for the industrial and civil uses to generate steam and hot water. The steam is mainly used for production and the hot water is mainly used for heating and daily use.
Some kinds of boilers have the problem of energy waste caused by heat loss in the process of steam transmission due to their special structures. To solve this problem, we should properly improve the steam transmission process.
