Burner modulation. Modulating control is a basic improvement in controlling combustion. A continuous control signal is generated by a controller monitoring the steam or hot water line. Reductions in steam pressure or hot water temperature lead to an increase in firing rate. The advantages of introducing burner modulation in combustion control
Read MoreJan 01, 1996 · As with atmospheric-pressure oxy-combustion processes, carbon dioxide (CO2) capture rates of 90% or higher can be achieved. The staged-combustion approach of the SPOC process, when operated at elevated gas pressure, allows for near elimination of flue gas recycle (FGR) and leads to significant improvements in efficiency and reduced costs.
Read MoreImproperly tuned boilers and boilers operating at off-design levels decrease combustion efficiency resulting in increased CO emissions. In some cases, the addition of NOx control systems such as low NOx burners and flue gas recirculation (FGR) may also reduce combustion efficiency, resulting in higher CO emissions relative to uncontrolled boilers.
Read MoreFlue gas recirculation, or FGR, is the most effective method of reducing NOx emission from industrial boilers with inputs below 100 MMBtu/hr. FGR entails recirculating a portion of relatively cool exhaust gases back into the combustion process in order to lower the flame temperature and reduce …

Read MoreBoiler water carry-over is the contamination of the steam with boiler-water solids. Bubbles or froth actually build up on the surface of the boiler water and pass out with the steam. This is called foaming and it is caused by high concentration of any solids in the boiler water. It is generally believed, however, that specific substances such as alkalis, oils, fats, greases, certain types of
Read MoreBy reducing the boiler pressure, some of the heat losses through leakages or transmission may be reduced slightly. However there can be problems with the boiler with reduced pressure. The boiler circulation may be upset and the steam lines may have insufficient capacity and flow to transport the low pressure …
Read MoreMay 01, 2000 · Fuel supplies and, when boilers are served by a common stack, furnace pressure control, all stabilize system operating pressures so the mere positioning of the fan damper and fuel valve reproduces a combustible mixture at the correct air to fuel ratio. But that assumes the air can reach the combustion chamber.
Read MoreIn variable pressure operation, boiler pressure is varied to meet turbine requirements. This can significantly improve cycle efficiency when operating at low loads (15 to 40% of maximum continuous rating, or MCR). However, boiler response to turbine requirements is slower in this mode. When fast response is needed, pressure increments are used.
Read MoreLow-water trips protect boiler pressure parts by shutting down the fuel combustion process, eliminating high temperatures in the furnace when the natural circulation cooling process is interrupted. Control of the boiler drum level is sophisticated, and even the best-tuned control systems cannot always prevent a low-water condition.

Read MoreDec 23, 2020 · In order to achieve proper combustion, we must know the contents of fuel properly. Need to operate the Boilers at designed parameters of fuel. For example if FC of the fuel increases, then need to increase air & combustion time and need to reduce turbulence. So it is very important to know the fuel contents. 8-Operating the Boilers at stable loads
