Modified boiler

Details: The modified boiler has a mechanism to recycle used steam so that steam (at 130°C), generated by boiling water, returns to the boiler at a temperature of 90-100°Cafter transferring heat for the useful purpose. Due to the recycling of steam instead of allowing its condensation, fuel and water requirement has reduced drastically. These modified boilers have been installed in food processing industries (mawa making, jaggery making), textile, plywood, paper, leather and dye industries. Using this technology it is possible to save fuel and water consumption by upto 30 and 80 percent, respectively
