Biomass Chain Grate Steam Boiler
Description
The Biomass chain grate steam boiler is a high-efficiency thermal energy equipment designed specifically for large-scale industrial heating needs. Utilizing mature chain grate combustion technology, it uses various biomass briquettes or pre-treated biomass fragments as primary fuels, stably and efficiently converting biomass energy into continuous and reliable steam heat energy. The Biomass chain grate steam boiler is an ideal choice to replace traditional coal-fired boilers, achieving a green energy structure transformation, reducing carbon emissions, and lowering operating costs.
Working Principle and Combustion Process
- Fuel Supply:Biomass fuel, after crushing and screening, is evenly spread at the front end of a slowly moving chain grate by a feeder.
- Preheating and Drying: Under the radiant heat of the front arch and the action of primary hot air, the fuel moisture evaporates, and the temperature rises to the ignition point.
- Volatile Matter Release and Combustion:Entering the main combustion zone, a large amount of volatile matter is released and intensely mixed with secondary air for combustion, maintaining the furnace temperature at 900–1100°C.
- Coke Combustion:Fixed carbon continues to burn in the middle and rear sections of the grate, while ash and slag move with the chain grate to the tail end, falling into the slag remover for cooling and discharge.
- Flue Gas Heat Exchange: High-temperature flue gas flows sequentially through the furnace radiant zone, slag-collecting tubes, convection tube bundles, and economizer, decreasing in temperature to 140–160°C before entering the dust removal and desulfurization system.
