A firetube boiler can react very quickly to load changes due to the fact that it has a large volume of stored energy in the form of hot water and steam.
The pharmaceutical sector is an area that requires the highest quality steam for its processes, known as clean steam, instead of other industrial steams. Some processes in this sector even need the highest level of quality - pure steam, which involves even stricter steam purity requirements for use in the sterilization of raw materials and pharmaceutical products at high temperatures.
Boiler is a kind of thermal energy conversion equipment composed of drum and furnace. It uses fuel combustion to heat water into steam or hot water to provide power for production or help auxiliary production. With the continuous improvement of industrial manufacturing technology, boiler's control has also changed from the traditional full manual operation to the present automatic intelligent control.
A well designed and operated biomass boiler burning fuel within the specification of the boiler should not produce any smoke, but black smoke may be produced if the fuel is too wet for the boiler. All biomass boilers produce some oxides of nitrogen (NOx), particularly nitrogen dioxide (NO2). While NOx emissions from gas boilers have been reduced significantly in recent years through the use of low NOx burners which burn at a temperature slightly below that at which NOx forms, the nature of biomass combustion, and the need to ensure the complete combustion of wood gases, means that combustion takes place at a temperature where atmospheric oxygen and nitrogen can chemically combine. The better the quality of the combustion control system on a biomass boiler, the lower the NOx emissions will be. In general, biomass boilers produce less NOx than oil boilers. Biomass boilers do not produce any oxides of sulphur (SOx).
After combustion, biomass-fired boiler fuel will generate energy and also produce some combustible matter in fly ash which will have bad influence on the surrounding environment. Therefore, in order to realize the goal of environmental protection, we should reduce the generation of combustible matter in fly ash in biomass-fired boiler fuel.
In the whole drying process, we should pay attention to gradually increasing the temperature instead of burning by raging fire; regularly checking boiler's water level and keeping it within the normal range; keeping the flame balanced in the furnace. In addition, we also should properly open the drainage valve and maintain the water level, regularly record the flue gas temperature to control the rise of temperature and high temperature and keep the temperature within the normal range. In general, under these conditions, boiler’s drying quality can be ensured.
The coal-fired boiler has always been one of the important boiler types in the industrial production and its operating costs and capacity play an important role in the enterprise operation.
Because coal fuel is expensive and coal combustion can cause serious environmental pollution, it is necessary to transform the coal-fired boiler into gas-fired boiler. However, the reconstruction of coal-fired boiler is not a small project. Only pay close attention to every phase of the reconstruction process can avoid failure.
