The customer is a
well-established supplier of Wood chip, fines for pellets and animal bedding
throughout Wales and the West Midlands. ESP Energy were commissioned to design
and install an industrial system that was capable of burning the lower grade
wood chip that did not pass quality control for being sold to their customers.
The customer was initially
looking at many different boilers but the Heizomat’s industrial feed system and
the chain and flight de-ashing system gave them confidence that it would be
able to cope with the fuel they wanted to burn where other boilers wouldn’t so
easily.
It was decided that 2 x RHK AK
1000 boilers would be installed to deliver heat to a 350m2 drying floor and a
conveyor dryer.
An additional reason for the
customer choosing Heizomat was that they were able to increase the flow
temperature of the boiler feeding the conveyor dryer to 105˚C giving additional
drying capacity.
A custom fuel store was designed to hold 2 x open troughs with a shared agitator.
