Cleaver-Brooks Reduces Fuel Costs Significantly for Borden Chemical

From Cleaver-Brooks

This client requested a packaged boiler / burner system that was able to burn a
process byproduct (tail gas) with a relatively low heating value (85 BTU/cu.ft.).
Compounding the challenges of burning this fuel was the fact that this gas was
only available at 1.5 psig. NATCOM developed a burner for firing into a refractory
lined chamber, using a center core tail gas stabilizer injector. A Class II natural
gas ignitor was used as sustaining fuel to insure safe, stable operation when
confronted with potential fluctuations in fuel BTU value and pressures. Main tail
gas was injected via two separate zones to insure proper fuel/air mixing.

Products & Services
Boilers (Industrial)
Industrial boilers are closed vessels that use a fuel source or electricity to heat water or generate steam for industrial heating and humidification applications.
Burners
Burners are heating devices that use air supplied specifically for the combustion of a fuel gas.
Economizers
Economizers are mechanical devices that are designed to reduce energy consumption, or to perform other useful, energy-related functions (such as preheating fluids).
Heat Exchangers
Heat exchangers are commonly used in a wide variety of industrial, chemical, and electronics processes to transfer energy and provide required heating or cooling.
