  • What are precautions to be carried out at Start in Steam Boilers? 2019-05-23
    1. Hydraulic should be carried out at a defined pressure before the start of a boiler.2. Check if the pump inlets are open at the start of a boiler.3. Install an automatic ash removal system such as rotary valves in a boiler so as to prevent the accumulation of ash in a furnace or other equipment. The accumulation may result in the blockage or excessive heating of boiler parts resulting in its failure.4. Pump priming must be done at the start of the boiler.5. All loose and wrong connections must...
  • When should use high-pressure versus low-pressure steam? 2019-05-23
    The pressure of the steam is directly related to its temperature. So process temperature will require steam used to be at a specified pressure. For example, a process requires that needs temperatures at 150°C will require steam delivered at 6 Kg/cm2 or higher.
  • Why does the biomass-fired boiler smoke in operation? 2018-07-12
    Question details (performance):Black smoke happens during operating. Answer: Fault reason:(1) Insufficient air volume, improper air distribution, low furnace temperature: boiler usually equipped with air preheater, but when the air preheater has leakage, hot air flow doesn't satisfy the need of burning, smoke will happen.(2) In the case of stalling situation in full automatic oil-fired boiler: significant increase of furnace negative pressure, no flame can be seen from the inspection hole, steam pressure and steam temperature drop, the steam flow decreases sharply. The water level drops suddenly and then rises sharply.(3) Incomplete fuel burning: this is the main cause of boiler smoke, in the operation, some combustible gases such as carbon monoxide, hydrogen, methane will be generated in addition to carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide, water vapor and oxygen, nitrogen, etc. during incomplete combustion. They burn and generate black smoke. Incomplete combustion of fuel will not only lead t
  • What causes the fan bearing to vibrate during boiler operation? 2018-07-12
    Question details (Performance):1. High temperature of motor, fast temperature rise.2. Overload, high outlet pressure and frequent safety valve open often.3. The vibration is intensified, the side vibration of the fan motor coupling is large, and the fan body never vibrates to vibration.4. No obvious vibration was found in no-load test of fan motor. Answer:  Fault reason:Fan bearing vibration is common fault in the operation, the vibration of the fan will cause damage of bearing and blade, bolt looseness, chassis and wind damage, fan vibration rises abruptly in the operation. this is because when the gas enter impeller and the rotating blade working face has certain angle, according to the principle of fluid mechanics, gas from non-working face must be a spiral blade, so the dust particles in the gas will slowly sedimentation due to vortex. Airfoil blades are very easy to accumulate dust. When the accumulated ash reaches a certain weight, a part of the large amount of accumulated ash wi
  • What is the reason for the failure of the coal economizer pipe of the coal-fired boiler? 2018-07-12
    Question details (Performance):1. The furnace wall at the coal economizer leaks water and steam with abnormal sound.2. The water level in the boiler drops sharply, and the water supply is obviously greater than the evaporation capacity.3. Smoke exhaust temperature and water outlet temperature rise.Answer: Fault reason:1. The water quality does not reach standard, and the oxygen in the water is decomposed into corroded pipe walls when the temperature rises.2. The low feed water temperature and smoke exhaust temperature make the inner and outer wall of the coal economizer pipe produce acid corrosion, or flying ash wear the pipe wall thin. 3. The pipe is blocked by impurities, causing overheating.4. Poor materials, defects in manufacturing, installation and maintenance. Troubleshooting:1. When economizer is slightly broke, it still maintains boiler operation, and the gap seems will not expand rapidly, in this case, load operation should be reduced, and start the spare boiler immediately,
  • Why are the furnace tubes damaged in operation of coal-fired boilers? 2018-07-12
    (Question details) Specific performance:The wall thickness of several boiler tubes was significantly reduced in a large area, the remaining wall thickness was 2.0mm, and some furnace tubes were corroded and worn out. Furnace tube wall is covered with a thick layer of uneven scale, the surface of the scale is brick red and black, scale layer is loose, and it is easy to remove the inner wall of the furnace tube, after removing, the furnace tube wall covered with a layer of corrosion pits. There is a thin layer of brick red corrosion on the outer wall of boiler tube, some of which are attached with black adhesive. Answer: Fault reason:1. The boiler is seriously short of water.2. Poor water circulation and uneven combustion.3. The unqualified quality of the boiler water and undemanding chemical supervision make the inner wall of the pipe corrode and scale, causing the pipe overheat and reduction of the strength.4. Due to the presence of impurities and scale, the furnace tube is blocked ins
