In a feed mill, the selection and use of boilers requires comprehensive consideration of a number of factors, including the temperature, pressure, safety and efficiency of the steam. Here are some detailed analyses of boilers in feed mills:
Steam boilers can effectively sterilise, disinfect and dry feed due to the high temperature steam produced under high pressure, thus improving the quality and palatability of feed. However, steam boilers require special attention to safety issues during operation, such as regular checking of steam pipework for leaks, steam-water separators for proper functioning and burners at maximum power.
Coal/biomass fired boilers use renewable biomass resources (e.g. straw, wood chips, etc.) as fuel, and convert biomass into gas through gasification technology to provide feed mills with the required heat and steam. Compared with traditional energy sources, biomass boilers have the advantages of environmental protection and energy saving, but their operation and maintenance are relatively complex and require more technical support.
In general, when the operating costs of boilers are taken into account, coal-fired boilers are the most widely used in feed plants. Bidragon offers a range of coal-fired boiler solutions, including manual burners, chain grate boilers, and reciprocating grate boilers. Bidragon Boiler can recommend and customise the appropriate coal-fired boilers according to customers’ requirements. The boilers used in feed plants are currently undergoing a gradual process of innovation in line with advances in science and technology, with the new boiler system showing promising improvements. Due to the high demand for feed, the selection of energy-efficient and cost-effective boilers can significantly reduce fuel costs. Biomass and gas boilers have been progressively adopted in feed mills to meet this demand.
