Steam Boiler or Steam Generator? How to Select the Right System
Compare steam boilers and steam generators by capacity, start-up time, load response, water volume, maintenance and operating cost.
Cost of 1 Ton of Steam: Fuel Consumption and Boiler Efficiency
Calculate gas and fuel use per tonne of steam from pressure, feedwater temperature, boiler efficiency and condensate return.
Conventional Boiler
Conventional boilers are classical boiler systems used in industrial facilities to produce heat energy, obtain steam, provide hot water or meet process needs. These boiler types have been used in the industry for many years;...
What is a Natural Gas Hot Oil Boiler?
Natural gas hot oil boiler is a system that heats the thermal oil used as heat transfer fluid by burning natural gas. The aim of these systems is to reach high temperatures at lower pressure compared to water and steam-based...
What is an Electric Hot Oil Boiler?
Electric hot oil boiler is a system that heats thermal oil used as heat transfer fluid with electrical energy. In this structure, instead of the classical combustion chamber and burner, electrical resistances or similar...
Solid Fuel Boilers Operating Instructions
Solid fuel boilers; They are powerful systems that work with coal, biomass, pellets or similar fuels and can meet high capacity needs when operated correctly. However, safe use in these systems is not limited to just...
What is Blowdown in Steam Boilers?
Blowing down in steam boilers is the process of removing dissolved and precipitated impurities in the boiler water out of the system in a controlled manner. If this process is not performed, the total dissolved solids level...
What are Hybrid and Alternative Fuel Boilers?
Due to fluctuating energy costs, changes in fuel access, and sustainability goals, many businesses are now looking for more flexible solutions rather than single-fuel-limited systems. At this point, hybrid and alternative...
What is a Burner and How Does It Work?
The burner is the main combustion equipment that starts combustion by mixing fuel with air in a controlled manner and provides the necessary heat to the boiler. The source of heat that turns water into steam in steam boilers...
What is a Natural Gas Steam Boiler?
A natural gas steam boiler is a system that uses natural gas as fuel to heat water and produce steam. It is frequently preferred to meet process heating, sterilization, drying and general steam needs in industrial...
