Upgrade the process burner, improve the boiler and burner controls, and incorporate heat recovery: Here are three ways to increase the efficiency of an industrial boiler system.
As boilers age, they become less efficient, thereby increasing operational costs. Replacing the boiler is the obvious choice; however, it may not be necessary. If the boiler pressure vessel is in good shape, upgrading the burner and controls while adding heat recovery can not only restore a boiler to its original efficiency but probably improve it.
