A:Steam generator is a kind of steam boiler, but its water capacity and rated working pressure are small, so it is easy to install and use, and it is mostly used in the production and processing of small business users.
Steam generators are also called steam engines and evaporators. It is the working process of burning other fuels to generate heat energy, transferring the heat energy to the water in the boiler body, raising the temperature of the water, and finally converting it into steam.
Steam generators can be subdivided according to different categories. For example, according to product size, it can be divided into horizontal steam generator and vertical steam generator; according to fuel type, it can be divided into electric steam generator, fuel oil steam generator, gas steam generator, biomass steam generator, etc., different Fuels make a difference in the operating costs of steam generators.
The fuel used by the electric steam generator is electricity, which is used to heat the heating group in the evaporator. It is clean, environmentally friendly, non-polluting, and has high thermal efficiency, which can be as high as 98%, but the operating cost is relatively high.
The fuel gas steam generator uses natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, biogas, coal gas and diesel oil, etc. It is the most widely used evaporator at present, and its operating cost is half of the traditional evaporator. Electric steam boiler. It is clean and environmentally friendly. Features: The thermal efficiency is over 93%.
The fuel used by the biomass steam generator is biomass particles, which are processed from crops such as straw and peanut shells. The cost is relatively low, which reduces the operating cost of the steam generator, which is 1/4 of the electric steam generator and 1/2 of the gas steam generator. However, the pollutant discharge of biomass steam generators is relatively large, and in some areas due to environmental protection policies, biomass steam generators have been gradually eliminated.
