A rice straw application for thermal oil heating
Buyers considering a rice straw-fired boiler should distinguish thermal oil heating from steam generation. This report concerns a YLW thermal oil heater. Its heat duty is stated in kcal/h, not tonnes of steam per hour.
Send the proposed rice straw characteristics, fuel supply pattern, process heat duty and oil temperatures when discussing a new installation. The photographs below accompany the published commissioning report.
