Advancements in Boiler Technologies Improve Power Plant Operations and Increase Fuel Efficiency

Power Plants Boiler Technology Advancements

The drive for operational improvements at power plants never stops. Increasing fuel efficiency is a key way to get higher returns on investment. By getting more power output from the same input, recent boiler technology advancements are raising the bar for what can be expected in the current and future generations of equipment. Stringent environmental regulations will continue to set the course for the industry and as emission-reduction goals become more strict the market must continue to adapt and innovate to maintain compliance. One such example that has been seen recently is the once-through boiler technology design. These boilers produce very high temperature and pressure steam when compared to older technology such as drum boilers. By creating steam at these higher levels there are considerable efficiency gains allowing plant operators to reduce overall fuel consumption and thereby lower the emissions of the process.
