Boiler produces heat via fuel combustion, so the burner is one of the important parts of boiler. And the air supply system is also an important component of burner. Whether the burner works well largely depends on its air supply system.
The fuel of coal-fired boiler will release some harmful substances after combustion that are harmful to human body, but also pollute the environment. Therefore, the desulfurization treatment is required for coal-fired boiler, including desulfurization before combustion, desulfurization during combustion and desulfurization after combustion. The specific operating methods are different.
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.
The industrial pulverized coal fired boiler is a new type of industrial coal-fired boiler focusing on pulverized coal combustion technology. The impurities are well removed when the grinding fitness of pulverized coal reaches 200 mesh. The pulverized coal is easy to be ignited and has few ash contents, which can enhance the complete combustion rate and reduce the burden of dust removal.
Industrial boilers will produce wastes that needs to be treated during the use process, which is what we mentioned of boiler blowdown. What are the methods for boiler blowdown?
1. Regular blowdown
1) The time interval and quantity of discharge depend on the test results of boiler water. It usually do not exceed 5% of the water supply.
2) When the regular blowdown is being made under high load of the boiler, the blowdown of the water-cooled wall header is generally not required to avoid affecting the normal water circulation of the water-cooled wall and forming a tube explosion incident.
2. Continuous blowdown
The amount of blowdown shall be determined according to the test results of the boiler water, and shall be completed by adjusting the needle-shaped angle of the blowdown tube.
The fuel of a gas-fired boiler is gas such as natural gas, city gas, biogas and liquefied gas, etc. What kind of fuel the boiler burns is decided by an equipment called a burner. The boiler equipped with a gas-fired burner is called a gas-fired boiler. There are three methods of gas-fired boiler combustion as per technical characteristics of how the gas and air mix.
1. Diffusion combustion:
Gas and air mutually diffuse at the gas nozzle and are burning. The advantages are burning stably and with simple burner structure. However, the heated area is easy to be carbonized due to long flame, which is easy to produce incomplete combustion.
2. Premixed combustion:
A part of air and gas are premixed before combustion (coefficient of primary air surplus is between 0.2-0.8), and then being burned. The advantages are clear combustion flame, enhanced combustion, and high thermal efficiency.
If the boiler burner fails or is faulty, then your boiler is not going to be able to generate heat efficiently, or in the worst case not at all . As industrial boilers are in almost constant use they are built to be very robust and last for decades, nevertheless they can still have problems with broken burners from time to time. Burner pumps, heads and nozzles can all cause problems but a swift replacement should limit your down time.
