Requirements Of Steam Boiler In Food Industry

Steam boiler in food industry is the main power supplying in production, which is the guarantee of production quality and high efficiency operation of industry. The steam is mainly used in material handling, ingredients, thermal processing, fermentation, sterilization, laundry room, dining room and some other places. Most products in the production process requires a low pressure saturated steam, the steam pressure is generally below 1 Mpa. Therefore, a pressure relief device is required in the process of using steam boiler to ensure safety in production. In order to meet the production needs of different situations in different seasons, a factory generally need to be equipped more than two steam boilers.

Food industry steam boiler types

The food industry boiler type is determined by the demand and characteristic of industry and the capacity of the factory and steam boiler. The type should meet the boiler capacity need, and the steam temperature and pressure should meet the need of production. The boiler should have a higher combustion efficiency and lower fuel consumption, low infrastructure and management costs. What’s more, the boiler should be adaptable for the different heat needs. Generally speaking, a 10 t/h steam boiler can meet the need of majority food factory, so the cfb steam boiler, biomass fuel steam boiler or traveling grate boiler, wns type steam boiler are all available for food industry. The cfb steam boiler can provide more steam continually, and the other horizontal steam boiler can be started and stopped at any time.

Location of steam boiler

To ensure a clean production environment, the boiler room generally built in downwind side of workshop, and there should be plenty of fuel and ash handling space near the boiler room. Boiler room and other buildings should maintain a safe distance to prevent accidents. There should be enough water and a water treatment machine to meet the special need of boiler water.
