Training Agenda: Boiler What is a boiler and how does it work? What various kinds of boilers are there? How can the performance of a boiler be assessed? What are the energy efficiency opportunities with a boiler? Thermal Systems/Boilers © UNEP 2005
What is a boiler? A vessel that uses water to transfer combustion heat into working energy While the water is heated its volume increases about 1,600 times Under pressure, the hot water or steam can be transferred into a process Thermal Systems/Boilers © UNEP 2005

Types of boilers What type of boilers are there? • Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion • Pressurized Fluidized Bed Combustion • Atmospheric Circu-lating Fluidized Bed Combustion • Pulverized Fuel Boiler • Waste Heat Boiler • Fire Tube Boiler • Water Tube Boiler • Packaged Boiler • FBC Boiler • Spreader Stoker Boiler • Chain- or Traveling Grate Boiler Thermal Systems/Boilers © UNEP 2005
Type of boilers • Fire tube boiler • Relatively small steam capacities (12,000 kg/hour) • Low to medium steam pressures (18 kg/cm2) • Operates with oil, gas or solid fuels Thermal Systems/Boilers © UNEP 2005
