PP Boilers

AFBC/FBC Boiler

AFBC (Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion) and FBC (Fluidized Bed Combustion) boilers are advanced combustion systems designed to burn a wide range of low-grade fuels efficiently. By suspending fuel particles in a bed of heated air, these boilers ensure uniform combustion, reduced emissions, and high thermal efficiency. Ideal for industries seeking cost-effective and eco-friendly steam generation.
Fuel Options

Coal, rice husk, biomass, petcoke, sludges

Capacity

10 TPH to 200 TPH

Working Pressure

Up to 120 kg/cm² (IBR-certified)

Temperature

Up to 540°C (superheated steam)

PP Boilers’ AFBC/FBC boilers are engineered to handle diverse fuels, including coal, biomass, agro-waste, and industrial sludges. Key design elements include:

  • Fluidized Bed Technology: Enhances combustion efficiency by suspending fuel in a turbulent air stream.
  • Fuel Flexibility: Burns low-calorific fuels like rice husk, coal rejects, and petcoke.
  • Emission Control: Integrated with cyclones, ESPs, or scrubbers to minimize particulate matter and SOx/NOx emissions.
  • Modular Construction: Simplifies installation and maintenance.

   Advantages

  • Low-Cost Fuel Utilization: Optimizes low-grade or waste fuels.
  • Uniform Combustion: Fluidized bed ensures complete fuel burnout.
  • Adaptability: Suitable for fuels with high moisture or ash content.
  • Cogeneration Ready: Integrates with power turbines for combined heat and power (CHP).
  • Fuel Efficiency: Reduces operating costs with high combustion efficiency.
  • Eco-Friendly: Lowers emissions through controlled combustion and pollution control systems.
  • Versatility: Handles multiple fuel types in a single system.
  • Compact Design: Requires less space compared to conventional boilers.
  • Low Maintenance: Robust construction minimizes downtime.

Applications:

  • Power Plants: Captive and co-generation power units.
  • Textiles: Steam for dyeing and drying processes.
  • Chemicals: Process heating and reactor systems.
  • Paper Mills: Steam generation for pulp drying.
  • Distilleries: Combustion of spent wash and biomass blends.

Features:

  • In-Bed Coils: Studded coils for enhanced heat transfer in the fluidized bed.
  • Advanced Air Distribution: Nozzles ensure uniform air-fuel mixing.
  • Ash Recycling: Re-injects unburned particles for improved efficiency.
  • Automated Controls: PLC-based systems for real-time monitoring and adjustments.
  • Durable Refractory Lining: Withstands high-temperature combustion environments.

What is Fluidized Bed

What is Fluidized Bed Combustion? Fluidized Bed Combustion is a combustion technology that suspends solid fuels on upward-blowing jets of air during the combustion process. The result is a turbulent mixing of gas and solids that provides more effective chemical reactions and heat transfer.
