ead below for our top three benefits to purchasing a low NOx heater for your facility.
They're Environmentally Friendly
When NO2 and NOx are released, they interact with other chemicals in the atmosphere that is harmful to the environment. The EPA has linked NOx emissions contributing to acid rain, smog, global warming, and smog. By using a low NOx heater, you greatly reduce NO2 pollution in the atmosphere.

They're Safer For Your Employees
According to the EPA, exposure to nitrogen oxides has been found to contribute to respiratory problems and diseases, like asthma. By installing a low NOx heater, you're potentially preventing damage to your employee's lungs.
They're More Efficient
As our low NOx heaters are built using a serpentine coil technology, they have space between the coil tubes which renders them 10 to 15% more efficient that hot oil heaters that feature helical coils.
Gas fired boiler is a boiler which uses gas as its fuel. Gas fired boiler consists of some important components such as flame ignition, gas metering system, air compressor, air piping, gas piping, burner nozzles, and the others. Combustion process of gas fired boiler should be maintained and operated properly to produce efficient combustion result.
Evaporation phase occurs in water wall tubes. Evaporation is the process to convert water into steam. Therefore water wall tubes should be designed and constructed to provide high heat absorption, minimum excess air level and highest boiler efficiency. Construction of water wall tubes should be also constructed to prevent air leakage into steam boiler, eliminate amount of heat losses and permit high heat release and combustion rate in the furnace.
Construction of water wall tubes must provide high quality of the supporting component such as tubes, casing, refractory, lagging, tile, fin, and so on. Best construction will reduce heat loss and maintenance. Construction of water wall tubes can be classified into four types such as:
Industrial boilers are welded from sturdy steel plates that are engineered to withstand intense heat and pressure - as a result of this thick steel, boilers can sometimes weigh as much as 165 tons! The construction of hot water boilers and steam boilers is very similar. They both feature a cylinder tube, otherwise known as the pressure vessel. The pressure vessel contains something called a flame tube, which is fired through a burner and a reversing chamber that feeds flue gases back through a second smoke tube. These flue gases are reversed again via an external reversing chamber. This reversing chamber sends the flue gases to the end of the boiler, in the third smoke tube pass. A major difference between hot water industrial boilers and the steam versions? Hot water boilers, as their name implies, are usually completely filled with hot water during their operation, while steam boilers are filled with water only until the ¾ mark, with the top fourth of the boiler reserved for steam.
Nitrogen Oxides, commonly referred to as NOx, is a family of poisonous gases. These gases are best known for their role in air pollution, leading to occurrences of acid rain, smog, and the deterioration of the ozone layer.In short, NOx is harmful to the atmosphere and the environment and needs to be limited as much as possible.The problem is that NOx is quite common. It's created as a result of fuel burning at high temperatures. Cars, trucks, boats, and other kinds of vehicles emit NOx almost co...
Today's businesses, regardless of industry, can always do more to improve their sustainability and limit the negative impact their actions have on the environment. There are a number of ways to do this, but one of the best is to use a boiler that's designed to limit the emissions of NOx — one of the most harmful greenhouse gases humans emit into the atmosphere. Aside from being good for the environment, a low NOx boiler can also be good for business.
Wood fuel has several environmental advantages compared with fossil fuels. Wood can be continually replenished, which leads to a sustainable and dependable supply. However, proper forest management must be practiced to ensure that growing conditions are not degraded during biomass production.
There is little net production of carbon dioxide from wood combustion, because the CO2 generated during combustion of wood equals the CO2 consumed during the lifecycle of the tree. Transporting the material using petroleum generates excess CO2.
The main sectors in which industrial steam boilers are used are:
Food, in industrial bakeries or baby food (as an example)
Textile, in rotary dryers
Chemical, for reactors or storage
Pharmaceutical, for the manufacture of medicines
Cosmetics, for the production of perfumes and creams
Stationery and printing, in drying tunnels
The cement industry, for the manufacture of cement parts
Oil, for the storage and distribution of heavy oils
Wood, involved in the process of melanin production
Hospitals and hotels, especially in the laundry and kitchen areas
Automotive and surface treatment, for the final metal finishing.
