Definition
1ton/hour biomass steam boiler uses biomass pellets, wood chips, straw, and other biomass fuel as energy, producing high-temperature air to heat water through combustion. This equipment produces 1ton/hour superfluous steam per hour. It is widely applied in food processing, chemical industry, paper making and other fields. In addition, it gradually becomes a ideal alternative to traditional gas fired boiler and oil-fired boiler.
The price range of 1ton/hour biomass steam boiler
The price range of 1ton/hour biomass steam boilers is relatively wide. For example, the price of some small vertical biomass steam boilers is about $490, while the price of a large-scale horizontal or automatic biomass steam boiler is about $7841-$9381. These differences mainly depend on boiler structure, control system, environmental protection, auxiliary equipment and other factors.
The main factors that affect boiler price
1. The structure of boiler and steam pressure
Structure: The price of a horizontal boiler is higher than a vertical boiler. Because horizontal boiler has more complicated structure and bigger floor space.
Steam pressure: The higher the rated working pressure, the higher the design and manufacturing costs of the boiler. For instance, boilers with a pressure of 1.25MPa usually cost more than those with a pressure of 0.7MPa.
2. Control system type
Manual control: Price is relatively low, but it needs manual operation.
Automatic control: Price is relatively high, but it is convenient to operate and operating efficiency is high. For example, a single-tube horizontal chain grate biomass steam boiler. (DZL)
3. Environmental protection equipment
The boiler equipped with advanced environmental protection equipment such as dust removal, desulfurization and denitrification is more expensive, but it complies with environmental protection requirements。
4. Fuel adaptation
The price of boiler that can adapt various biomass fuels is higher because of its more complex combustion system design.
5. Does it include auxiliary equipment?
Boiler includes burner, fan, induced draft fan and other auxiliary engine is higher.
Advice about price depend on different requirements
Limited budget: You can choose small vertical, manually controlled biomass steam boilers, which are relatively cheaper.
Pursuing efficient automation: It is recommended to a select horizontal, fully automatic controlled biomass steam boilers. Although the price is higher, the operating cost is lower.
Emphasizing environmental protection: You should give preference to choosing boilers equipped with advanced environmental protection equipment. Although the initial investment is large, it can avoid environmental penalties in the future.
FAQ
1. How much steam can a 1 ton/hour biomass steam boiler produce?
A 1 ton/hour biomass steam boiler can produce 1 ton/hour of saturated steam. This output is sufficient to meet the steam requirements for most industrial production processes.
2. How much fuel does a 1 ton/hour biomass steam boiler consume per hour?
To produce 1 ton/hour of steam, a biomass steam boiler typically consumes 150-200 kg of biomass fuel per hour. The exact fuel consumption may vary slightly based on factors such as the type of fuel and the boiler’s efficiency.
3. How much the operating cost of boiler?
Fuel cost: The price of biomass fuel is approximately $112-$167 per ton, fuel cost per hour is about $17-$30.
Power cost: Electricity consumption per houris about 20-30 kW/h, with a cost of $1.7-$2.5.
Operation and maintenance: Every shift needs one operator, the labor cost is about $0.7-$1.4 per ton. Annual maintenance per ton is about $0.4-$1.1.
Depreciation cost: The price of a new boiler is approximately $13997-$27994. Calculated based on ten years lifespan, the cost is about $0.28-$0.56 per ton.
4. How long can recover the cost?
Take a $13997 biomass steam boiler as an example. Assuming the cost of each ton of steam is $28, the selling price is $42, the profit per hour is $14, it operates for 20 hours per day, runs for 300 days a year, and the annual profit is $83981. The cost recovery period is approximately 2 years. The actual recovery period may vary due to factors such as market price fluctuations and operating time.
Conclusion
The price of a 1ton/hour biomass steam boiler varies depending on factors such as structure, control system, environmental protection equipment. The price range is quite wide. When choosing a boiler need to consider comprehensively own needs, budget, environmental protection, operating costs and rate of return on investment. Though biomass steam boiler has high initial investment, its energy saving and environmental protection will save running cost in the long term.It not only complies with the national environmental protection policies, but also has excellent economic and social benefits.
