How does ZOZEN help reduce operating costs for a steam boiler in the palm oil industry?

ZOZEN reduces lifecycle cost via fuel efficiency, fuel flexibility, and maintainability. High-efficiency heat transfer surfaces (economizer, air preheater) lower specific fuel consumption.

Biomass designs burn PKS and EFB effectively, turning mill residues into primary fuel and minimizing purchased fuel. Intelligent combustion control maintains optimal excess air over varying moisture contents, improving boiler efficiency and stabilizing steam for sterilizers and digesters.

Robust grate and furnace design lower clinker formation and unburnt carbon losses, reducing cleaning downtime. Water treatment integration reduces scaling and corrosion to maintain heat transfer and extend pressure-part life.

Standardized, modular construction shortens installation time and enables faster commissioning, which reduces project CAPEX. ZOZEN’s remote monitoring and service programs help detect issues early, while accessible layout and fewer wear parts reduce O&M.

Emission solutions help avoid penalties and ensure compliance. Overall, mills see lower cost per ton of steam and improved overall equipment effectiveness, translating to reduced cost per ton of crude palm oil.
