Increasing Energy Consumption to Fuel Asia Circulating Fluid Bed Boilers Industry: Ken
Research
Today, energy management is a necessity and is very essential for future. Boilers generate
steam which is used to provide space heat, process heat and other variants of heat. Steam
boiler is used for generation of heat through heat transfer process from a working fluid or
water. The invention of circulating fluid bed boilers has given boilers and power plant operators
a greater flexibility in burning wide range of fuels. Circulating fluidized bed operation is a clean
process with lower emission pollutants. Key factors affecting the advanced CFB boiler
technology are wide fuel flexibility, excellent emission performance and large range of load
adjustment. This proved that it is one of the clean coal combustion technologies commercially
applied in large scale operations. The need for cost efficient and cleaner combustion
technology coupled with stringent environmental regulations in Asia, has led to the
development in energy efficient power generation.
According to the study “Asia Circulating Fluid Bed Boilers Industry Situation and Prospects
Research Report”, circulating fluidized bed boilers are designed for lignite or coal, from
industrial to large-scale utility boilers. Majority of the circulating fluidized bed boilers are
designed for fuels such as biomass and various types of waste which are co-fired with regular
fuels simultaneously. The industries that are benefitted from circulating fluidized bed
technology are textiles, paper, fertilizer, chemicals and petroleum refining. Circulating fluidized
bed boilers solve Asia’s energy crisis and decreased dependence on grid power. Decrease in
fossil fuels, high degree of carbon emission into the atmosphere, and increasing quantity of
hazardous waste from energy production processes are few factors driving the circulating
fluidized bed boilers market in Asia.
The various products types available in Asia’s circulating fluidized bed boilers are subcritical,
supercritical and ultra-supercritical. Circulating Fluid Bed Boilers in Asian market are utilized in
calendering process resin, chemicals, manufacturing and others. Circulating fluid bed boilers
market in Asia is spread across China, Japan, India, Korea, Saudi Arabia and other region. The
leading players in Asia’s circulating fluid bed boilers industry are Dongfang Boiler Group Co
(China), AE&E Nanjing Boiler Co (China), Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (India), Mitsubishi
Heavy Industries (Japan), Shanghai Boiler Works Co (China), Thermax. D Ltd (India) and Doosan
Heavy Industries & Construction Company Limited (UAE).
Circulating fluidized bed boilers are used to produce energy from a variety of fuels such as
biomass, coal, and peat because they have a very low operating temperature, emit low levels of
harmful gases such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sulphur dioxide. Circulating
fluidized bed boilers installation is highest in the oil and gas industry because power
consumption has increased rapidly over the past few years. It was observed that there is a
