Used for generating steam for power, processing or space heating, or for producing hot water to heat products or a hot water supply, a boiler delivers steam or hot fluid to the end use point at the desired pressure and temperature.

A 50-hp Scotch Marine boiler manufactured by Hurst Boiler, Coolidge, Ga., is loaded and ready to ship to California.

ProFire SBR-5 Series is compatible with boiler types such as firetube and watertube. The burner series is capable of less than 5 ppm NOX emissions with flue-gas recirculation (FGR). 

A benefit of a modular, once-through watertube design is the ability to rapidly generate full steam even from a cold start (on-demand steam). On-demand steam can improve steam generation operations by matching the actual load demand with boiler output in near real time. While traditional boilers typically are placed in a standby or idle mode when not in use, such operating techniques are not required with on-demand watertube boilers.

Ed Verderose joined Miura Boilers, Rockmart, Ga., as national accounts manager, a position that is focused on working with businesses and facilities that have multiple locations in the U.S. market. Miura is one of the largest industrial steam boiler manufacturers in the world and manufactures on-demand steam solutions.

The Performance Series is suited for industrial applications ranging from 17,250 to 103,500 lb/hr (500 to 3000 hp).

Superior Holding Inc. will complete the full integration of its Richmond, Va.-based English Boiler subsidiary into Hutchinson, Kan.-based Superior Boiler. The Richmond and Hutchinson arms of the company both will now operate under the Superior Boiler name.

Fives opened a combustion research center in Europe to speed up the development of new technologies for the energy and oil-and-gas industries. The Fives European Combustion Centre in the province of Piacenza (northern Italy) will reduce the time to market of combustion systems that have improved energy performance, are more environmentally friendly and guarantee a high level of security, says the company.

Can boiler maintenance impact your bottom line? You bet it can. When a boiler is operating at optimum efficiency, it can help save thousands of dollars on a facility’s energy costs. Sounds great, but how can you make sure that happens?

CBEX Dryback Elite achieves 3 percent O2 across its 10:1 turndown range. The standard package offers 30 ppm NOX with less 10 ppm CO. The boiler is generally 20 percent smaller than other firetube models and heats up faster, according to the manufacturer.
