Can coal-fired boilers and gas-fired boilers be installed in the same boiler room? If so, what measures need to be taken? According to that standard, thank you.
They can be placed together, but there must be a certain distance between the two boilers; this distance needs to be large enough for a person to pass through
I asked the chief engineer at my company who has spent his entire career working on boilers about this. He said it wasn’t necessary. I asked for the basis, and he said that the regulations don’t forbid putting them together. He said that applying it together with many other users poses no problems at all.
Thank you. GB50028 states that gas boilers should be placed in a separate boiler room, while GB50016 requires that there be firewalls between gas boilers and other civil buildings. Is this the correct way to understand it?
I personally do not recommend it. Coal-fired boilers generate dust easily, causing significant environmental pollution; boiler rooms equipped with such boilers are rarely clean. Gas burners have certain requirements regarding the environment, and even covering the burner with a casing cannot prevent pollution. Furthermore, the mechanical operation of coal-fired boilers inevitably generates sparks, and the flames may also burst outward, posing a threat to gas pipelines.
They can be located in the same building, but a firewall should be installed between coal-fired boilers and gas-fired boilers to separate them into different areas.
