What Kind of Biomass Boilers Are Used in Palm Oil Plant
The Palm Oil industry in Southeast Asia and Africa generates large quantity of biomass wastes whose disposal is a challenging task. Palm kernel shells (or PKS) are the shell fractions left after the nut has been removed after crushing in the palm oil mill. Kernel shells are a fibrous material and can be easily handled in bulk directly from the product line to the end use.
The primary use of palm kernel shells is as a boiler fuel supplementing the fibre which is used as primary fuel. Palm kernel shells have been traditionally used as solid fuels for steam boilers in palm oil mills across Southeast Asia. The steam generated is used to run turbines for electricity production. These two solid fuels alone are able to generate more than enough energy to meet the energy demands of a palm oil mill. Most palm oil mills in the region are self-sufficient in terms of energy by making use of kernel shells and mesocarp fibers in cogeneration. In recent years, the demand for palm kernel shells has increased considerably in Europe, Asia-Pacific, China etc resulting in price close to that of coal. Nowadays, cement industries and power producers are increasingly using palm kernel shells to replace coal. In grate-fired boiler systems, fluidized-bed boiler systems and cement kilns, palm kernel shells are an excellent fuel.
According to the size of palm oil plant, DZL or SZL chain biomass boiler can be generally satisfied. DZL chain biomass boiler of our company is fast installed boiler, fast installation, time saving , compact structure, small area and so on. It has the advantages of high reliability, high thermal efficiency and strong overload capacity. It is the best design product of the same kind of domestic products. The SZL chain grate biomass boiler belongs to the assembly boiler. It has the original membrane water cold wall structure, the innovative front and back arch structure, the lengthened type grate, and the bilateral air inlet is convenient to adjust the air volume of each wind chamber. Which type of furnace is more suitable for you, you need to describe the production process in detail, our engineers will customize you according to your situation - design the biomass boiler that is most suitable for your needs!
