INDUSTRIAL STEAM BOILER - THE “HEART” OF INDUSTRIAL LAUNDRY

The steam boiler system is an extremely important part of industries to provide energy for equipment and machinery during operation. For the industrial laundry sector, the boiler system is considered the "heart", providing steam to industrial laundry machines, dryers, and ironing systems.

What is a steam boiler? 

An industrial steam boiler is a system that uses fuels such as (coal, firewood, etc.) to boil water, then uses heat from steam to serve the operating needs of machines in the industrial field such as washing machines, dryers…

Structure and working principle of industrial steam boiler system

Structure

• Burner: the part of the boiler that provides the heat source to boil the water for the system.
• Combustion chamber: the part with high temperature. During the combustion process, the heat from here will be directed to the heat exchanger.
• Heat exchanger: this device is responsible for transferring heat from the burner to the water source without direct contact.
• Supply line: used in hydronic heating systems to help deliver boiled water or hot steam to locations where it needs to be distributed.
• Return line: after the water or steam cools back to the state of water, it will be returned to the boiler for heating again.
• Firebox: where the material is exposed to the air to create a fire.
• Refractory materials: materials used to fill the gaps around the firebox, ensuring that the fire does not escape from the firebox.
• Circulation pump: the part that pushes water or hot steam from the boiler system through the heat distribution parts of the system.

The working principle of the steam boiler system

The operation of industrial boilers is mainly based on the process of generating heat from burning fuel. The water is transported and circulated through the water tank and is continuously pumped into the boiler unit. The combustion chamber is responsible for burning fuel until the heat source reaches 1600 - 2000 degrees Celsius. Then the water evaporates to form hot steam. The hot steam will be used as energy for the exchangers and washing machine, ironing, drying... After the heat exchange or heating process, the hot steam will lose energy and condense into a liquid form, then the cold water will be returned to the water supply tank to be heated again.

The Advantages of the steam boiler system

• Steam from industrial steam boilers is generated from clean water, so it is safe and clean to use steam in production processes.
• The boiler can be used safely, without causing danger to other adjacent machinery and equipment.
• Industrial laundry plants can save on labor and operating costs because the boiler system is designed to optimize the automatic operation process.
• Industrial steam boilers have a minimal, neat, and friendly design. 
• Industrial steam boilers with high efficiency help meet most of the needs of equipment systems such as washing machines, dryers, and industrial ironing machines.
• The steam boiler uses fuel to operate, so it does not make noise that affects the surrounding area.

How is the steam boiler at EcoWash HCMC operated?

Step 1: Before the start

Before operating the steam boiler, it is necessary to check the power source, water in the tank, fuel, and measuring devices.

Step 2: Start the steam boiler

After completing the inspection steps, the boiler operator will perform the starting steps such as turning on the boiler switch, supplying fuel, pumping water, timing, measuring boiler pressure...

Step 3: Maintain the working mode

Maintain boiler operation by monitoring required steam parameters, adjusting steam flow and combustion, and regularly monitoring boiler water level and pressure.

Step 4: Stop the steam boiler

Finally, stop the boiler when the required amount of steam has been supplied.

At EcoWash HCMC, the main factor that we care about the most is protecting the environment through cleaning solutions and machinery equipment. Besides the steam boiler system imported from advanced countries, We also prioritize using environmentally-friendly sources of fuel.
