Seeking advice on boiler renovation

2015-11-21View Original

Thread Content

Our factory previously used a hot water boiler that burned 0.8 tons of coal. Now, there is a requirement to convert it into a gas boiler. Our factory has propylene-containing gas emissions, and we would like to know whether it is possible to use these emissions for combustion in the boiler. By how much will costs increase after switching from coal to gas?

:Lol, mine used to burn coal too; I’ve now installed a gas system, but I haven’t used it yet!

I would like to ask whether it is possible to use impure gases for combustion in the boiler. . . . . . First, it depends on whether your ambient energy is sufficient and stable; from that, it can be determined whether it can be utilized. The cost of natural gas is generally about 300% higher than that of coal.

In Wenzhou, natural gas is readily available, so it’s better to switch to a gas stove. As for the small amount of propylene mixture used in chemical production, it mainly depends on whether the gas source and gas flow rate are stable Is the calorific value appropriate? If it can be guaranteed, it can be used as gas.
