Boiler/Furnace Operations

Waste is burned in the boiler/furnace and the resulting heat is used to generate power. Precise measurements support the optimisation of this process, and also help to control emissions. In addition, thermal monitoring within the boiler provides important information on the refractory wall condition.

Thermal imaging in the boiler must overcome the extreme heat to monitor interior conditions and optimise the combustion process. Control of the process is also supported by measuring carbon monoxide (CO) emissions and acid dewpoint. Flue gas detection is required to ensure plants comply with emissions regulations.

The advanced products developed by AMETEK Land provide solutions to support combustion efficiency and emissions control, which together lower process costs and avoid fines for non-compliance. Our accurate, non-contact measurements allow optimal conditions with no interference with the combustion process. Boiler monitoring spots maintenance issues at an early stage.
