Soot Blower Optimization Technique in Recovery Boiler

The Chemical Recovery boiler is the profit earning section of Paper Industry. By properly reutilizing the resources like wood, water and steam for manufacturing, there would be a chance of the paper cost can be reduced. To be the proper functioning of the boiler Soot blowers is necessary. There are 28 Soot blowers available in Seshasayee Paper Board Ltd., Pallipalayam, procured from Clyde Bergemann Inc., Atlanta, USA. Optimization of High-Pressure steam during soot blowing saves green energy and effectively controls the plugging tendency. The fouling management of the boiler was enhanced and the soot blowing steam consumption was reduced. Soot Blowing performed only where and when needed. This project focuses on how to reduce the high-pressure steam during Soot blowing process. Heat transfer from flue gas to water and steam to get maximum potential. This will increase the efficiency of the Recovery Boiler.
