The issue of staffing for boilers
Thread Content
Everyone, please share the model of the boiler in your workplace, as well as the staffing arrangement. Let’s see how we can save labor and resources while still achieving optimal results Urgently needs discussion
25-ton furnace; currently 5 people, 1 person needed. 7 people are planned to be assigned. Currently, the staff lack skills, and coupled with the inadequate number of officers, this poses many challenges to management work. It is not conducive to the company’s economic production; therefore, it is best to have an extra person on hand, and if that’s not possible, hire someone from outside the factory whenever needed
For quick-installation boilers, 2 people can be assigned to each one; for assembled boilers, 4 people can be assigned to each one.
The main requirement is to have a full-time staff member who can be deployed at any time to monitor the operation of the equipment and the condition of raw materials, as well as to develop maintenance plans; our maintenance tasks are handled by a specialized maintenance company
Our plant has 4 35T steam boilers, operated in a two-in-use, one-on-backup, and one-for-maintenance configuration. There is one shift leader, 2 boiler operators, 2 assistant boiler operators, 1 person responsible for water supply and ash removal, 1 person for loading coal, and 1 crane operator.
Our workshop’s waste heat boilers are staffed with 3 people per shift; when one person is off duty, 2 others must take over their duties
For a 7-ton waste heat boiler, there is 1 boiler operator per shift, and 1 person responsible for water treatment and testing.
Also, 12 hours per shift, :( :( :(
There are no strict regulations either at present; each unit arranges its own equipment. The principle is to work only with proper credentials, and to determine the number of workers based on the intensity of work and working hours; prolonged operation is unsafe and violates labor laws. A full-time or part-time laboratory technician must be assigned.
Our company uses hot oil furnaces, and there is only one person per shift; the number of staff members is determined based on the volume of work, with no fixed requirement specifying how many operators are needed.
10-ton waste liquid incineration waste heat boiler + 1-ton solid waste incineration waste heat boiler (2 sets, one in use and one as backup) + exhaust gas treatment equipment + compressed air equipment + cooling circulating water + PSA – 1 person
Is transporting coal and cinder both the job of forklift drivers?
