Abstract |
The Chemical Recovery boiler is the profit-earning section of the Paper Industry. By properly reutilizing the resources used in various sections of the industry, the net consumption of resources like wood, water and steam can be reduced. Soot blower is one of the major components required for the proper functioning of the boiler. Several issues like Nozzle rupturing, Steam leakage, Lance tube bending and corrosion are frequently reported among the 28 soot blowers of Seshasayee paper and boards limited, Pallipalayam, procured from Clyde Bergemann Inc., Atlanta, usa. This project concentrates on the analysis of root causes of these problems and aims at eliminating them. Also, we have suggested a few corrective measures to be taken to increase the operating efficiency of the soot blowers and the boiler. |
