What are the disadvantages of a biomass-fired boiler?

06 Mar 2020

A: Although biomass-fired boilers are environment-friendly boiler products, there are also some situations that biomass-fired boilers can't be used. Main reasons as follows:

Fuel restrictions: The fuels that contain synthetic compounds can't be used as the fuel of a biomass-fired boiler, such as waste wood furniture, waste paper, production and domestic waste.

The restrictions of forbidden areas: non-burning areas, ecological red line areas, central towns and other environmentally sensitive areas.

Because the fuel of biomass boilers are solid particles, the fuel may be fired incompletely.

Biomass-fired boilers cover a large area and require a space for storing biomass particles.

The cost of Biomass-fired boilers is higher than electric boilers and gas-fired boilers at the earlier stage.
