Brilliant they look great, will get in touch with them. You are very helpful I appreciate it!

Awesome thanks!

Hey LittleInch, is it no good using the exiting steam to heat the boiler feed water? Thanks for the pointers on the thermal efficiency... think I was fooled by some of the Chinese manufacturers claiming >90% efficiency on their boilers. Cheers, Basil

Thanks so much that info has helped me a lot! I will have a look at that book as well. Cheers, Basil

Ok sure that makes sense. I will have a browse for boilers with high corrosion resistance. Do you happen to know anything about choosing the optimum boiler operating pressure for the process? That is what I am struggling with most. Thanks, Basil

Hey Georgeverghese. The gas itself is not being dried in the process, the biomass producing the gas is being dried so the gas being produced should be of low enough acidity providing the dryers are functioning effectively. In regards to the condensation of the phenols - the gas leaves the...

Thanks for the reply, problem is the plant is being built in China so it will save heaps of money on the product and the shipping to buy a boiler made in China

Hi, I am a new engineer in my first job and have been tasked with the design of a steam generator. The company is a very small start-up so I am the only one working on this. The fuel I have available is a pyro-gas produced from the pyrolysis of bamboo powder, the details of the fuel are listed...

Thanks again for the great info! I will make another post in the boiler and pressure vessel forums as you said. In response to georgeverghese, the water vapour content in the gas (previous to burning) should be very low as the biomass will be dried prior to pyrolysis. There'll be a fair amount...

Thanks for all the responses! My apologies, I realise I've described the fuel completely wrong by trying to simplify my question. The fuel is actually pyro-gas - the volatiles produced from pyrolysis consisting mainly of CO, CO2, Methane and tar (which is majority phenol). In response to...

Hi, I am a new engineer in my first job and I have been asked to source a steam generator for a biogas power plant. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to calculate the electrical output achievable from the generator? I think I have calculated the boiler capacity correctly - I used the...
