What are the influencing factors of boiler efficiency decline?
Boiler efficiency refers to the percentage of boiler effective utilization heat to boiler input heat per unit time, that is, the percentage of effective utilization heat per standard cubic meter of gas fuel. ZOZEN gas-fired boilers all adopt large furnace design, with the efficiency as high as 98% and NOx emission as low as 30mg/Nm3.
The heat loss of gas-fired boiler mainly comes from two aspects: unreasonable combustion air-fuel ratio and heat loss of exhaust gas.
1. Unreasonable combustion air-fuel ratio
When there is too much air, a lot of extra cold air will be heated, which will increase the energy consumption of the boiler and decrease the thermal efficiency of the boiler. When the air is insufficient, incomplete combustion will occur, which will lead to the decrease of the efficiency of gas-fired boiler.、
2. Exhaust heat loss
If the temperature of flue gas after fuel combustion is too high when it is discharged, it means that all the released heat is not supplied to the water in the boiler, and this heat is discharged into the air as waste gas, which will reduce the efficiency of gas-fired boiler and the energy-saving effect. The reasonable exhaust temperature is 60℃.

South America is rich in agricultural and energy resources and has a diverse manufacturing base. Industries such as papermaking, packaging and sugar processing are upgrading their production equipment as market and environmental requirements evolve. For these companies, a boiler is more than a steam source. Its performance affects production continuity, fuel consumption, process quality and emissions management. Through projects in Venezuela, Brazil and Ecuador, ZOZEN Boiler has continued to ex...21 Jul 2026 -
As the 2026 FIFA World Cup brings the United States, Mexico and Canada into the international spotlight, attention is once again turning to the cities, industries and communities across North America. Away from the stadiums, manufacturing plants, beverage production lines and automotive component facilities continue their daily operations, providing steady support for local economies. ZOZEN Boiler’s WNS Series Serving Industrial Projects in North America In these less visible parts of ...14 Jul 2026 -
At the production site of a pharmaceutical company in Shanghai, a ZOZEN gas-fired steam boiler commissioned in 2010 has been operating steadily for 16 years. For this established pharmaceutical company, founded in 1995, the steam system is closely related to production rhythm, process coordination, and on-site operation support. Whether the equipment can maintain stable operation over the long term directly affects the continuity of daily production. Time is a practical test, and the continuous ...07 Jul 2026
