Introducing the Biomass Stoker Boiler

 

The Boiler

Boiler Type "C" Style, Three Pass, Low Pressure Boiler rated for 30 Psi water pressure (other pressures available). Three Pass design provides maximum heat transfer with low stack temperature. The boiler is designed and constructed to the A.S.M.E. low-pressure boiler code and meets all the requirements of the authorities of the Provinces of Canada.

The Biomass Stoker Boiler's extra large combustion volume assures complete combustion of solid fuels, clean firing and unrestricted gas flow. The large firebox with arched crown sheet provides and exceptionally high proportion of the primary (radiant) heating surface which is many times more efficient than secondary (indirect) heating surface. The firebox boilers are used in automatically fired Solid Fuel systems all over North America. Supplied boiler horsepower ranges from 50 - 300 BHP (other sizes available).

Special Boiler features used for Solid Fuel combustion systems:

  • A.S.M.E. Boiler Code Certification

  • 3-Pass full wet back design for maximum durability and economy

  • Open furnace bottom for stoker installation

  • Hinged furnace access door; front, rear or side 16 or 20 inch diameter

  • Custom rear flue gas box outlet

  • Abundant heat transfer surface per boiler horsepower

  • Outstanding inspection access as well as quick and easy maintenance

  • Flushout and inspection openings are 3x4 inch hand-hole type.

  • Covered with mineral insulation and steel jacket

Stoker Base

The Chain-grate stoker uses endless chain, which is constructed to form a support for the fuel bed.

The chain travels over the sprockets mounted at the front of the stoker. The stoker chain links are cast from a special high heat resistant cast iron. Chain links are designed to transport most of the Solid Fuels during the combustion process.

The stoker base is constructed of 0.250" (or thicker) mild steel. The stoker walls are lined with two layers of High Temperature insulation (for a total thickness of 4"). The use of multi-layer insulation assures low stoker surface temperature. The primary part of the combustion chamber is lined with 9" firebrick. The remaining part of the combustion chamber is lined with 9" refractory. The use of firebrick and refractory combined with high temperature insulation guarantees good heat radiation, which enhances fuel combustion.

The back of the stoker base is equipped with hinged, large access door c/w sight glass. The door (lined with refractory) provides an easy access to the combustion chamber for periodic inspections. Large (4" diameter) sight glass enables to view Solid Fuel combustion without opening the back door.

The chain grate is driven by a hydraulic motor, which enables it to move at a very low speed. The main advantage of the moving chain grate is that the fuel falls on the chain grate, and combustion is completed as it moves slowly through the base. The ash remains on the grate and falls onto the main ash removal auger as the grate turns around.


The Biomass Stoker Boiler 

consists of steel base with factory installed:

  • Hi temperature insulation and refractory
  • Combustion and over-fire air system
  • Automated ash removal
  • and Chain-grate
