…that steamrollers the competition!
With its unique design features optimising efficiency and saving plant owners money, the ICI Caldaie Composite Steam Boiler is fast becoming the boiler of choice throughout the Water Industry.
The ICI Composite Boiler range has been selected for some of the highest-profile enhanced Bio Gas projects currently being delivered in the UK, including Beckton & Crossness THP projects and the 4 Anglian Water AMP 5 Special Projects (Basildon, Cliff Quay, Colchester and Pye Wipe STWs). It is also being considered for a number of other on-going schemes.
In addition, a worldwide THP technology provider has recognised the numerous advantages that come with an ICI Caldaie Composite Boiler.
The first feature of the composite boiler is the fired section, consisting of a three pass and fully wet back design. ICI Caldaie incorporates all its standard firetube boiler design features into its composite boilers, ensuring a long and reliable life-cycle.
The Benefits
- The main boiler body is manufactured with flanged tube plates – rather than traditional t-butt welds – to ensure maximum security and reduced stress points.
- Large furnace designed for low heat release, incorporating possible corrugated design.
- Front doors fitted to the boiler by double pin joint hinges that can be opened without removing the burner.
- Feed water inlet thermal sleeve and stainless steel sparge pipe
- Internal steam separator to ensure dryness fraction of 99.5%.
- Arced internal support brackets to reduce stress points.
Combining a waste heat and fired boiler together, this ICI Caldaie product has a separate section for utilising high-grade waste heat from new CHP assets. The waste heat operates as the primary fuel source to generate the provision of free steam for on-site process requirements as opposed to using non-renewable fuel sources such as gas and oil, which obviously come at an additional cost.
Efficiency of the composite unit can be improved, typically in excess of 5%, with the addition of flue gas economisers.
