Why Must Every Industrial Boiler Owner Have A Maintenance Checklist? Let’s Explore!



Routine boiler repair and service is highly recommended and can help your firm achieve operational efficiencies, cost savings, and safer working conditions. Unfortunately, many businesses are reactive, waiting for anything to go wrong before addressing their boilers. 


While it may appear to be an extra cost, preventative maintenance methods can help you avoid boiler breakdowns and expenses, as well as extend the life of your equipment. If your organisation can include routine boiler maintenance into its policies and practices, it will reap both immediate and long-term benefits.


It is absolutely necessary you will always have to keep an eye on the boiler system in order to spot any potential hazards or inefficiencies. Preventive maintenance techniques can be split into daily, monthly, periodic, and annual services to guarantee that your boiler system is working efficiently and effectively. If you find a bigger problem with your equipment during an inspection, make sure to arrange repair services before it gets worse. 


Accidents do occur. It's an unavoidable truth of life. Boilers are highly complicated machines with hundreds of delicate elements that must work together under extreme conditions. When it comes to machines, there will be mistakes and problems. Therefore, it is usually beneficial to have a backup plan in case of a boiler emergency. 


Not to mention the old age, "Time is Money." Your firm loses money every time your boiler breaks down or is out of commission. In addition, a defective boiler can put your team at risk of harm, which is even more alarming.


Don't be caught off guard. A thoughtful planning and preparedness can go a long way towards ensuring that your boiler issues are resolved swiftly and securely. 


Below is a checklist that one must be prepared with at all times to avoid loss of time and life-threatening accidents:

  • Keep external connections to fit Boilers in case of an emergency. 

  • Fool-proof backup plan for fuel. 

  • Quick shutdown procedure in case of the shutdown. 

  • Detailed evacuation plan for any mishap. 

  • Keep a list of numbers ready of boiler rentals and service providers. 


Must Do Your Research before you invest in a Boiler! 


It is important to do thorough research before you do anything related to industrial boilers. Do not wait until the last moment. Keep your list of boiler and boiler service providers ready to ensure readiness in times of emergencies.

What are Bi-Drum Boilers? How Do They Work?

Image
Bi-drum boilers are used for purposes of power generation and as process steam generators. This type of boiler is used up to 100MW for generating power. Bi-drum boilers are non-reheat units which are getting wiped out due to high heat rate of the plant. These boilers are used for generating high steam pressure which is used for power generation owing to their ability to accommodate high load of fluctuation and respond to load changes with more agility compared a single drum boiler. The two drums in the bi-drum boiler are connected using a large number of convective heat transfer tubes known as bank tubes or boiler bank tubes. These tubes are about one thousand in number. The bank tubes and the drum at the bottom that contains water will have a water level that will be up to the normal working level of water in the upper drum. The water availability in the bi-drum boiler makes it very adoptable for large load changes. Flue gases enter the bank tubes which are placed towards t...

How Do Electrostatic Precipitators Work?

Image
Reducing air pollutants is vital for human health and the health of the environment. Poor air quality has harmful effects on human health, particularly the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. Pollutants also damage plants and buildings, and smoke or haze can reduce visibility. Industries are largely responsible for causing pollution. They are also the ones who have access to a number of pollution control devices that absorb, filter, dilute, and disperse pollutants. One such device for pollution control is the electrostatic precipitator. This device works by removing particles and smoke from a gas stream using an electrostatic charge. Dust particles travel past wires that have a high direct current (DC) voltage applied, which ionises the surrounding gas. This corona discharge causes the particles to pick up a small electrostatic charge, without impeding the gas flow. Originally designed for recovery of valuable industrial-process materials, electrostatic precipitators are used a...

The chemical industry in India offers building blocks and essential raw materials for numerous industries such as paints, paper, textiles, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, soap, and detergents, etc. Let’s go through a few statistics of the chemical industry: The chemical industry in India is ranked 4th in Asia and 6th in the world. The global chemical industry is expected to be worth $4.7 trillion. The chemical companies in India contributes 3.4% to the global chemical industry. As of 2018, the chemical industry (including pharmaceuticals and fertilizers) stood at $163 billion. The Chemical sector in India is expected to grow at 9% per annum to reach $304 Bn by FY 2025. The expansion is anticipated to be pushed by rising demand in end-use segments for Specialty Chemicals and also for petrochemical intermediates. In 2015-16, the Chemical and Chemical Products sector accounted for 2.39percent of the GVA, compared to 2.23percent in 2014-15.18 Note: With India possessing a l...
