We will discuss the economic impact of this method and the process needed to make the change and sustain the change. A boiler running at optimum performance will save money in fuel usage, last longer, have higher yields and be more environmentally compliant. Many new technologies have recently been brought to market to allow users to run boilers in a more optimum fashion. Technologies for boiler modeling allow for online model development of how the boiler is currently running. Model Predictive Control technologies allow for the boiler model to be made an integral part of the boiler control strategy. Technologies for NOx emissions reduction can be implemented as part of the control strategy. The control strategy for the boiler can be developed to balance optimum fuel usage, boiler efficiency, boiler corrosion and NOx emissions for optimum boiler performance. Come to this session to learn more about the different technologies for modeling, control, NOx, SO2 and Mercury reduction for commercial and industrial boilers. (0.6 CEU's)
