Industries in this complex

Each industry brings its own heat-carrier parameters, duty profile and hygiene or safety demands.

  • 01

    Oil Production and Transport

    Viscous, high pour-point crude has to be kept moving, so tank farms, loading racks and pipelines need steady heat and freedom from paraffin deposits. Thermal oil circuits give you up to 300 °C with no pressure in the system, while steam covers purging of pipework and vessels.

  • 02

    Gas Transport and Distribution

    Gas preheating before pressure reduction, compressor hall heating and process duties run around the clock, and any outage has to be agreed with the control room. Compact units from 100 kW to 10 MW fit into existing stations and burn the same gas that the line carries.

  • 03

    Coal Mining and Preparation

    Intake air for the shafts has to be heated through the whole winter to prevent icing and keep the mine working, while preparation plants call for steam in flotation and drying. Air heaters and steam boilers with duplicated control hold both duties without a shutdown.

  • 04

    Oil Shale and Peat Processing

    Wet raw material has to be dried to a tight moisture target, so drying complexes need dry saturated steam and large volumes of heated air under swinging load. An enlarged steam space, careful separation and reinforced convective surfaces keep steam quality stable as the line cycles.

  • 05

    Uranium Mining and Processing

    Hydrometallurgy sets the pace here: extraction vessels, pulp and solution heating and ion exchange columns need steam held at a stable pressure and temperature. Hot water boilers cover intake air heating for underground workings and hot water for the amenity blocks.

  • 06

    Power Generation

    Turbine plant needs superheated steam held to parameter through cycling load, and gas turbine or gas engine sets leave exhaust heat that is worth recovering. Heat recovery boilers complete the block, and peak hot water boilers cover the winter maximum without oversizing the base plant.

[ Applications ]

Fuel and energy sites run to a continuous timetable: wellheads and tank farms, pressure reduction and compressor stations, mine shafts, drying lines, hydrometallurgical circuits and turbine halls. All of them depend on heat delivered at a stated parameter, hour after hour. We size and build boiler plant around your process data rather than around a catalogue page.

What these processes demand from a boiler plant

A pressure reduction station, a ventilation shaft, a drying line or a turbine hall cannot wait while a boiler is repaired, and a planned outage has to be agreed weeks ahead. Much of this plant also stands outdoors, far from any workshop, in areas classified as hazardous. Those constraints shape the design from the first calculation.

Continuous duty
Plant is sized for 24/7 operation with a margin over the calculated load, so that scheduled stops stay rare and unplanned ones do not occur.
Swinging load
Drying lines, test rigs and peak heating cycle hard. Two- and three-pass layouts with generous water and steam volumes absorb the swings without hot spots.
Cold and remote sites
Cold-resistant steel grades, enlarged circulation circuits and containerised housings keep units working at Arctic temperatures where no building exists.
Hazardous areas
Burners, gas trains and enclosures are configured for the area classification of your site and interlocked with the plant safety system.
Integration
CONTROL panels provide the signal set and protocols your control room already uses, so the boiler joins the existing system instead of sitting beside it.

Equipment that fits the duty

The heat carrier defines the choice, and most sites here end up with two or three working together.

Hot water and superheated water

CORE, SLIM and BASE cover workshop and amenity heating in tight boiler houses, and CORE DUO adds two independent chambers where hot standby is required. TRINITY and MEGA carry site-wide networks. Where a higher temperature head is needed, QUANT, QUANTUM, EON and MEGA X supply superheated water.

Steam

RAPID and PILLAR raise steam within minutes for intermittent duties such as purging. TOR, HERO and TRIPASS suit steady process demand. For turbine plant and large drying complexes, MIRA X and PULSE deliver high-parameter steam with spray attemperation that holds temperature as load moves.

Thermal oil, recovery and air heating

MAGMA and CRUX heat tank farms without pressure in the circuit, completed by EXPAND and STORE. PHOENIX recovers heat behind gas turbines and ECHO behind process furnaces. ZEPHYR, KENO, LUMO, ROCK, MODUL and GUST heat shaft air, drying air and open sites directly; ROOK and WARD house plant outdoors.

Heat carriers, capacities and operating parameters

Hot water
Up to 20 MW per unit with TRINITY and up to 50 MW with MEGA, at up to 16 bar and 115 °C.
Superheated water
QUANT, QUANTUM and EON cover up to 20 MW at up to 15 bar and 180 °C; MEGA X extends the range to 209 MW.
Steam
From 600 kW of instant steam with RAPID to 154 MW with MIRA X at 25–220 t/h, 45 bar and 450 °C; PULSE holds saturated steam to 12 bar and 180 °C.
Thermal oil
MAGMA and CRUX work up to 300 °C, keeping heavy oil pumpable while the circuit stays at low pressure.
Hot air
Air heaters from 50 kW to 1500 kW, direct or indirect fired depending on whether the air enters a process or a working area.

Reliability, water quality and service life

Most premature failures here come from water chemistry and from operating outside the design envelope, not from the pressure parts themselves. We therefore supply the auxiliary train with the boiler: DEGAS for feed water deaeration, DRY and BUFFER for blowdown and condensate, BOOST and ECO to bring the flue gas temperature down.

Every unit ships with the Digital Twin telemetry system, which records pressure, temperature, flue gas data and burner behaviour. Your team sees drift long before a trip, plans maintenance against real running hours, and supports the lifetime warranty on the heat exchanger and main load-bearing elements with evidence.

From input data to commissioning

Input data
Process duties, load profile, available fuels, water analysis, site constraints and the interface to your control system.
Calculation and design
Heating surfaces, burner and auxiliary train sized against your real load graph, then layout and control philosophy agreed with you.
Manufacture and testing
Incoming material control, non-destructive testing of pressure welds and hydraulic testing above working pressure.
Acceptance
EN 12952 and EN 12953 under PED 2014/68/EU, ASME practice on request, ISO 9001 quality system, and witnessed inspection by a notified body such as TÜV where your operator requires it.
Commissioning and service
Supervised erection, burner setting, control tuning, operator training and handover with the document package.
