Distributed Energy Applications Become Popular EPCB New Products Realize Distributed Boiler System

January 11, 2022

Back in the 1980s, the distributed energy supply system was mentioned internationally. In China, the concept of distributed energy was first proposed to solve the problem of shortage in the power supply industry. With the introduction of the goal of "carbon neutrality", each industry is contributing its own strength in its own field.

Boilers play a vital role in the process of achieving "carbon peak and carbon neutrality". EPCB has never interrupted the research and development of boilers. The research and development of the new thermal oil boiler has successfully realized a distributed boiler system, which distributes the boilers to each production line, and the heat energy is produced and used immediately. Every progress can provide users with better service!

Let's first briefly understand the concept of distributed energy.

What is Distributed Energy?

The so-called "distributed energy resources" refers to the comprehensive energy utilization system distributed on the user side.

It integrates and optimizes the user's multiple energy needs and resource allocation conditions, and adopts a new energy system with demand-responsive design and modular configuration, which is a decentralized energy supply method relative to centralized energy supply.

Compared with the traditional centralized energy system, distributed energy has the advantages of saving energy consumption, improving energy utilization efficiency, as well as the reliability and safety of system functions, energy saving and environmental protection. At present, distributed energy design has been widely used in industrial parks, residential heating and other fields.

Distributed energy has the characteristics of reasonable utilization of energy efficiency, low loss, low pollution, flexible operation, and good system economy.

What is a Distributed Boiler System?

The distributed boiler system adopts a unified control system. The boiler is distributed to each production line, and the boiler is placed wherever heat energy is needed. The heat energy is produced and used immediately, which can reduce the loss of heat energy in the transportation process. It has the effect of reducing energy waste.

This design concept is compatible with distributed energy sources and can meet the individual needs of users for energy. The boiler can be rationally configured and overall optimized according to actual energy needs. Compared with the previous boiler system, It can maximize the use of heat and reduce heat waste in the process of transferring heat from the pipeline to the production line.

Therefore, the distributed boiler system can reduce the steam demand in general. For example, if 2T of steam was originally required, it may now only need 1.5T. Because the technology of “distributed energy” avoids steam loss in the transportation process.

EPCB's New Product Introduction

EPCB has introduced a new type of boiler system, which modulates the entire boiler system, which can save costs for customers in five aspects: equipment, transportation, installation, operation, and environment.

Specific features:

1. Adopt integrated soft connection design, small size, easy to transport and easy to install;

2. Using the self-developed new "through steam generation technology" to achieve steam output in 3 seconds with high thermal efficiency;

3. The PLC automatic control system is adopted, which is easy to operate and save labor costs;

4. The six-fold interlocking safety protection system ensures the safe and stable operation of the boiler system.

5. Ultra-low nitrogen emissions, no additional treatment of exhaust gas is required to protect the environment.

How does EPCB's new product realize a distributed boiler system?

EPCB's new products are small in size and occupy a small area. They can be flexibly placed. The auxiliary equipment of thermal oil boiler is all integrated in the boiler system, and the steam boiler only needs water treatment and a chimney.

The distributed steam boiler system can directly recover secondary steam and condensed water, without or requiring very few pipelines. This structural design makes it more convenient to arrange the boiler system in a distributed manner, and users can rationalize the operation of the boiler system according to the peak and low peaks of heat consumption.

Distributing modular boilers to each production line has more advantages:

No need for a dedicated boiler room:

Distributing the boiler to the production line eliminates the need for a dedicated boiler room, which not only saves space, but also avoids the waste of heat from the pipeline to the production line.

No need for professional boiler worker:

With an intelligent operating system, the boilers on the production line can be directly controlled by workers. With the continuous innovation of intelligent technology, even if the boilers are distributed in various production lines, one terminal can manage all the boilers in the factory.

No need for complicated boiler maintenance:

The modular boiler integrates all boiler systems in one module, which is convenient for maintenance, and can be quickly solved when problems are found, and it is highly replaceable.

No complicated boiler installation is required:

Integrated design, and soft connection, the user's on-site installation is very simple, which can directly save expensive installation costs.

More flexible use: The boiler can be shut down at will when the production line is not in use, the operation is simple, and it does not affect the operation of other production lines in the factory.

Shortcoming:

It is not suitable for solid fuels. Due to the problems of solid fuel operation and dust pollution, it is more suitable for centralized treatment.

The arrangement of liquid and gas fuel pipelines needs to be carefully designed.

Conclusion

As one of the core equipment in distributed energy, the boiler is not only used for heating and steam supply, but also used for power generation. Therefore, it has high requirements for the parameter range, steam quality, boiler efficiency, and safety performance of the supporting boiler equipment. EPCB is committed to tying the interests of customers with the interests of the company, mutual benefit and win-win, and promoting social development as a part of the company's development concept, which is beneficial to the society. This has always been the case for EPCB boilers.
