Biomass for a brewing company in Jaén

The company Soluciones de Ingeniería Energética Aplicada SL (SIEA SL) is completing the installation process of a 13 tn/h biomass boiler in Jaén for an important brewing company to produce steam thanks to the generation of heat from biomass with a boiler that will be operational in the coming weeks.

It should be noted that, as this is a client classified as an essential service in this state of alarm, the assembly has been carried out under the conditions required by the government due to COVID-19. The installed boiler is a water-fire tube type MGV-VRT model intended for the generation of 13 tn/h of saturated steam at 15 bar pressure, including a smoke purification train with multicyclone and bag filter and an automatic biomass feeder system with the minimum conditions of quality and characteristics.

The boiler has an excellent sizing of the combustion gas flows that enables high thermal efficiency in addition to minimizing the effects produced by the decantation of particles inside the flame tubes and thus, providing benefits by virtue of reducing equipment stops for cleaning. The project includes an automatic fuel silo extraction system with a capacity of 450 m3 fully integrated with the boiler, which ensures adequate control in the automatic operation of the plant.

Tests are currently being carried out on site for its start-up during the month of September.
