Firstly, the combustion of biomass fuel is easy to control. The fuel is easy to ignite. Besides, the combustion speed is faster than that of coal.
Secondly, the biomass-fired boiler can be ignited and extinguished at any time while the coal-fired boiler cannot. The biomass-fired boiler can also be ignited automatically.
Thirdly, the biomass-fired boiler can achieve zero emission of sulfur dioxide, which belongs to environment-friendly boilers.
The temperature of flue gas generated by a biomass-fired boiler is relatively high. But it is not corrosive. So, it is suitable to use heat resisting glass fiber needled felt bag which has a good use effect. Moreover, this kind of cloth bag is not very expensive.
1. The fuel volume is 1 / 30 ~ 40 of the raw material volume after molding;
2. The specific gravity is 10-15 times of the raw material, and the moisture content is between 12% and 18% (the moisture content of coal is below 10-15);
3. The net calorific value can reach 3500-4500 kcal (the net calorific value of class II bituminous coal is 3700-4700 kcal / kg);
4. The ash content is less than 10% (the ash content of coal is more than 20%);
5. Volatile matter ≥ 65.62% (volatile matter of class II bituminous coal≥20%).
6. Biomass fuel belongs to renewable clean energy, which is the same as wind energy and solar energy. The biomass fuel is rich in resources, it can ensure the sustainable use of energy.
7. The sulfur content and nitrogen content of biomass fuel are low, the amount of SOx and NOx generated in the combustion process is low.
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.
Biomass steam boilers recover the heat generated during the biomass combustion process to heat the water in the boiler exchanger circuit. The hot water is then diverted to the heating circuit.
Occasionally it is necessary to remove the ashes generated by biomass combustion and clean the burner.
Many situations require one or more back-up boilers, especially those involving residential accommodation. A properly designed and installed biomass boiler will be as reliable as a fossil fuelled boiler, and in this respect the usual rules for specifying back-up boilers should be applied. However, as a biomass boiler is rarely sized to meet the peak load, the back-up boiler usually acts as a peak-topping boiler as well. Hence, it is usual for back-up boilers to be sized to meet the peak load.
We would recommend your biomass boiler has at least an annual maintenance service. Like anything if you maintain your boiler correctly it will last longer and perform better. Biomass boilers burning even the most difficult of materials can operate unattended, but weekly inspection visits are required to carry out a visual inspection of the boiler and fuel feed system, to check the lubrication of bearings and to empty the ashbin.
As a large enterprise specializing in manufacturing boilers, ZOZEN...
A biomass boiler is a boiler designed to burn solid fuels classed as biomass. Such boilers can be supplied to burn every form of biomass from woodchips, wood pellets or logs to waste agricultural materials such as straw and grain husks, olive kernels, rice and the dust from any of these including sawdust. Boilers need to be designed to burn specific materials, with any given boiler able to burn a limited range of biomass.
ZOZEN biomass-fired boiler has wide fuel adaptability, is suitable for a wide variety of biomass fuels including biomass particle, wood chips, palm shell, straw and so on. The engineering technique personnel of ZOZEN optimized the design of the feeding hopper, the length and width of the fire grate, rotary speed of gearbox, 1st and 2nd air ratio, vapor orientation and position, etc; the above upgrades ensure the high thermal efficiency and stable operation of the boiler.
