What are the advantages of biomass boiler?

21 Oct 2022

With the price increase of natural gas and the restriction of gas pipelines in remote areas, the same green biomass boiler effectively fills the vacancy of gas boiler, and more and more enterprises choose biomass boiler for production and heating. So what are the advantages of biomass boiler?

 

Advantages of biomass boiler

Biomass hot water boiler provides a green, low-carbon, clean and economical renewable heating mode, which is suitable for small and medium-sized industrial parks and urban heating. There are many advantages of biomass boilers:

1. Advantages of fuel: Biomass fuel is a green, environmentally friendly and renewable energy source, which is easy to obtain and simple in processing technology. The key is inexhaustible and low in pollutant emissions. Using biomass fuel is an important measure to turn waste into treasure.

2. Boiler thermal efficiency. The thermal efficiency of biomass boiler is similar to that of coal-fired boiler, but it is optional in terms of pollutant emission and renewable resources.

3. The operating cost is low. The operating cost of biomass boiler is lower than that of current boiler products.

4. The degree of automation is high. With the digital integrated controller, the user can control the combustion condition according to the set program. The operation is very convenient, and automatic ignition, automatic ash cleaning and automatic feeding can be realized.

5. Ash utilization: the ash after biomass combustion can be recycled and used as potash fertilizer.

6. Clean heating of biomass boilers has also been supported by relevant policies, and subsidies have been given for renovation.

 

Biomass boiler selection

1. fuel characteristics

The calorific value, moisture and volatile matter of biomass fuel are different, so the corresponding boiler structure, air distribution and auxiliary equipment configuration are different.

2. Use heat

It is especially important for users to know the actual heat consumption, temperature and load first, so as to determine the working medium, capacity, parameters and automatic regulation of the boiler.

3. Thermal efficiency and emissions

It is measured by a series of technical and economic indexes, such as thermal efficiency, combustion efficiency, fuel consumption, exhaust gas temperature and external surface temperature of the boiler. 4. Supporting equipment The monitoring device, safety protection, electrical interlock and other instruments and devices of the boiler system should be advanced, so as to ensure the safe and economical operation of the boiler after it is put into operation. It is worth noting that although biomass boilers have many advantages, they are forbidden to be used in some places. Mainly restricted by the following three aspects: 1.1 Fuel restriction: It is forbidden to use fuels containing synthetic compounds, such as waste wood furniture, waste paper, production and domestic garbage, etc.; 1.2 Restriction of supporting facilities: It is strictly forbidden to use bag filters for special boilers without biomass; 1.3 Prohibited area restrictions: non-burning areas, ecological red line areas, central towns and other environmentally sensitive areas.

 

In the market, the application of biomass boiler has been relatively mature, but due to the wide sources of fuel, phenomena such as insufficient combustion, ash deposition and coking often occur. In order to effectively solve this problem, ZOZEN Boiler cooperated with universities and research institutes to carry out combustion tests on various kinds of biomass at home and abroad, and established mathematical models. According to the experimental results, the furnace arch, furnace wall, furnace heating surface and secondary air were scientifically arranged, which expanded the advantages of biomass boiler.
