What is a waste pot, and what’s the difference between it and an air tank?
Mountain dialect, scrap boiler – maybe a waste heat boiler? Air tank, gas cylinder? Steam drum? ? ? ? ?
The waste boiler is essentially a steam generator that recovers waste heat to produce steam. The drum is a vessel that supplies deoxygenated water to the waste boiler and facilitates gas-liquid separation; it is an auxiliary device for the waste boiler.
A waste heat boiler is a device that uses exhaust gas to generate steam; in other words, it is a steam generator. The steam drum functions as a device for separating steam from the water used in the boiler. The waste boiler and the drum together constitute the boiler system.
A waste heat boiler is probably the device in question, one that uses the residual heat from flue gas to generate steam
Is a waste heat boiler a device that uses residual heat to generate steam?
The common name for the emergency cooler at the outlet of the cracking furnace in ethylene cracking processes; it is used to cool the cracked gas in order to recover its thermal energy and generate steam
Personal understanding: Waste boilers generate steam through the recovery of waste heat from gases (of course, this does not include boilers designed specifically for steam production), while drum boilers produce steam by recovering waste heat from liquids or solids.
A waste heat boiler, as the name implies, is a boiler that utilizes various high-temperature exhaust gases for waste heat recovery. It can be divided into smoke tube boilers and water tube boilers; each type has its own advantages and disadvantages, and both are widely used. Currently, water tube boilers are used a bit more frequently.
