What are the differences between gas-fired boiler and oil-fired boiler?
11 Sep 2020
With the continuous development of boiler manufacturing process and technology, fuel types of boiler have also increased, such as various combustible gases, fuel oil, biomass, coal and so on.
The differences between gas-fired boiler and oil-fired boiler：
1) Combustion method. Gas-fired boiler: a mixture of fuel gas and air burns in a suspended state in the furnace; oil-fired boiler: a strong mixture of fuel oil atomized by oil burner and air burns in a suspended state in the furnace. The same point is the required mix with air. Some oil-fired boilers burn heavy oil, which has a high viscosity and must be preheated before it can be piped and used.
2) Burner. Gas-fired boiler uses gas burner while oil-fired boiler uses oil burner.
3) Operating costs. The costs of oil-fired boiler is higher than that of gas-fired boiler due to the costs of various kinds of fuel oil.

Behind industrial manufacturing often lies an invisible thermal energy lifeline. Whether boiling syrup, synthesizing chemical materials, or pressing new energy security materials, every physical and chemical change on the production line has strict requirements for the temperature, pressure, and continuity of thermal energy. When green biomass energy enters these vastly different manufacturing workshops, how can various forms of pellets, wood blocks, or straw be converted into the "precise temp...08 Sep 2026
