Hybrid CG
Solid Fuel Boilers
The Hybrid CG design is suitable for applications to
produce high pressure steam or hot water in ranges from 3,450 - 60,000 lbs/hr
(3.4 mm BTU - 60 mm BTU) output from 100 up to 400 PSI. This system is designed
by HBC to combine the best technologies from the "old school" of
biomass combustion and the latest advanced combustion control technologies.
The new HBC chain grate-type stoker system permits a wide range of biomass
fuels with high ash contents to be combusted in an efficient manner with
the added advantage of automatic de-ashing. This combination is particularly
suitable for heating applications in lumber dry kilns, veneer log vats, veneer
dryers, greenhouses, factories, schools and office buildings. This combination
enables these systems to provide a flexible and reliable operation utilizing
a consistent "grade" of biomass waste with moisture contents ranging
from 30 - 50%. The boiler vessel is a two pass hybrid design incorporating
a water tubed boiler-type water membrane and a two-pass fire tube scotch
marine vessel. This vessel's advantages over standard water tube boilers
include much larger steam disengagement area providing high quality steam,
larger steam storage capability for quicker response to sudden steam demand
and much larger thermal storage that provides fast demand response times
and safer operation.
