Although most people know their boiler will not last forever, many people treat it as it should. On average, your industrial boiler should last you anywhere from 20 to 25 years without any trouble. If you’re around year 15, you may be able to retrofit your boiler to update it with newer technology.
Whether it's an industrial hot water boiler or an industrial steam boiler, they all depend on fuel to run. The process of heating is initiated as the burner heats or eventually evaporates the water inside of it. It's actually transported via intricate pipe systems.
Steam boilers transport through the pressure created by the process, while hot water boilers use pumps to move heat throughout the system. Eventually the condensed steam or cooled water returns back through the pipes to the boiler system, so the heating process can be initiated again.
As the boiler creates heat energy, a byproduct of the process — flue gases — are exited through a chimney system. Because of this, regulating the industrial boiler emissions is a very serious issue.
Shell boilers may be defined as those boilers in which the heat transfer surfaces are all contained within a steel shell. Shell boilers may also be referred to as "fire tube" or "smoke tube" boilers because the products of combustion pass through the boiler tubes, which in turn transfer heat to the surrounding boiler water.
Many business units are in contact with low-nitrogen boilers for the first time, and they do not have a good grasp of how to operate correctly and effectively extend the service life of the boiler. ZOZEN Boiler specializes in the production of low-nitrogen boilers, summarizing the following three techniques for extending the life of low-nitrogen boilers, helping users to better operate low-nitrogen boilers.
The oil-fired boiler refers to the boiler fueled by oil, including the diesel, waste oil and other fuel oil. The oil consumption of the oil-fired boiler affects the economic operation of the boiler.
The safety valve of the boiler refers to the valve on the top of the boiler near the boiler control room. The function of the safety valve is to be opened automatically to exhaust the steam and restore the pressure when the boiler pressure exceeds the specified valve, so as to ensure the safety of boiler pressure-bearing components and steam turbines.
According to the power of water or steam circulation, boilers can be divided into natural circulation boilers, forced circulation boilers, once-through boilers and combined circulation boilers.
