Introduction

In the quest for sustainable energy sources, biofuel boilers have emerged as a promising solution for industrial heating needs. These boilers utilize biomass fuels, such as wood pellets, agricultural waste, and energy crops, to generate heat energy through combustion. In this article, we will explore the working principles of biofuel boilers, their advantages over traditional fuel boilers, and present some popular models offered by ZOZEN, a leading provider of biofuel boilers.

Working Principles of Biofuel Boiler

Biofuel boilers operate by burning biomass fuels in a controlled environment, producing heat energy that is transferred to a working fluid, typically water or thermal oil. The combustion process involves the release of stored energy from the biomass, which is then harnessed to generate steam or hot water for various industrial applications.

Advantages of Biofuel Boilers

When compared to conventional fuel boilers, biofuel boilers offer several significant advantages:

Low Carbon Emissions: Biofuel combustion releases carbon dioxide (CO2), but the emissions are considered carbon-neutral since the biomass feedstock absorbs CO2 during its growth. As a result, biofuel boilers have a significantly lower carbon footprint, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

Renewable and Sustainable: Biomass fuels used in biofuel boilers are derived from organic matter, making them renewable resources. Unlike finite fossil fuels, biomass can be continuously replenished through responsible forestry practices and agricultural waste management.

Abundant Resource Base: Biofuels can be produced from a wide range of organic materials, including forestry residues, crop residues, and dedicated energy crops. This diversity of feedstock ensures a reliable and readily available fuel source for biofuel boilers.

ZOZEN’s Popular Biofuel Boiler Models

ZOZEN, a reputable manufacturer of industrial boilers, offers a range of biofuel boilers that cater to different heating requirements. Let’s take a closer look at some of their popular models:

SZL Series: The SZL series biofuel boiler features a chain grate and water tube design, with horizontal dual drums. The furnace adopts a densely arranged water-cooled wall tube structure, providing a large radiation heating surface. This model offers a thermal capacity ranging from 6 to 35 t/h and a working pressure of 1 to 2.5 MPa.

DZL Series: The DZL series biofuel boiler is a compact, horizontal three-pass water and fire tube chain grate boiler. It boasts a convenient on-site installation, shorter construction period, and lower infrastructure investment. With a thermal capacity of 2 to 10 t/h and a working pressure of 1 to 2.5 MPa, it is an excellent choice for various industrial applications.

DZL Tri-drum Series: The DZL Tri-drum series biofuel boiler is a water tube boiler with independent intellectual property rights developed by ZOZEN. It is equipped with an ash blowing device at the rear convective heating surface and ash blowing pipe holes at the top of the furnace. This design allows for ash cleaning without the need to shut down the boiler. The thermal capacity of this model ranges from 15 to 40 t/h, with a working pressure of 1.25 to 2.5 MPa.

YLW Series: The YLW series biofuel boiler is a horizontal, chain grate, assembled thermal oil boiler. It offers high automation and easy maintenance, requiring fewer operating and maintenance personnel. With a thermal capacity of 1400 to 29000 kW and a working pressure of 0.8 to 1.0 MPa, it provides efficient and reliable heating for various industrial processes.
