Both coal-fired boilers and gas-fired boilers are relatively common types in the boiler market in recent years. Although they are more consistent in their comprehensive performance, they have specific combustion methods, combustion products, and specific operational requirements and workflows. A big difference, FANGKUAI Boiler after ample market research, summed up the main differences between coal-fired boilers and gas-fired boilers.
First, the way of burning
Most of the coal-fired boilers use the layer-fired combustion method. The coal passes through the coal-feeding machine to transport the chain grate plane, and the combustion process is completed in the furnace. Most of the gas boilers use chamber combustion, and the natural gas is mixed with the air in the burner in a predetermined ratio, and then injected into the furnace through the nozzle to complete the combustion in the furnace state.
Second, the automatic control of the boiler
Coal-fired boilers are limited by factors such as coal type, coal seam thickness, blast volume, air volume, air volume distribution and grate speed. It is difficult to automatically adjust boiler operating parameters according to load. However, high-quality gas boilers are less affected, and only the size of the burner can be adjusted according to the load, and automatic control is easy.
Third, the combustion products
Coal is mainly composed of C, H, O, N and other elements, ash and moisture, but not the surface of these components, but a more complex compound. After the coal is burned, heat is released, and sulfurized oxygen gas is generated, which is discharged into the atmosphere by the flue gas. These gases are very polluting the environment and cause harm to humans. The natural gas used in gas boilers is mainly composed of methane gas and contains a small amount of non-hydrocarbon gas. Generally, it does not contain water and ash. Therefore, it mainly produces carbon dioxide and water after combustion, and releases a large amount of heat. Compared with coal, Hazardous substances should be significantly reduced.
Due to the difference in fuel, coal-fired boilers and gas-fired boilers show many differences in many specific ways of use and work content. Therefore, in the process of selecting the two, it is necessary to choose according to the needs and convenience of operation.
