Main properties and advantages of the wood gasification hot
water boiler of series “Pyrotherm”
1.1.
Basic information for the hot water boiler
The wood gasification hot water boiler of series “Pyrotherm” is steel-plate
hot water boiler, which uses solid biomass fuel in shape of wood logs. The
boiler is designed to be connected to local hot-water heating systems, as well
as heating up domestic hot water. The boiler uses wood logs with moisture
content up to 20% (the parameters of the fuel are described below), the
resulting heat energy from thermo-chemical conversion (i.e. combustion
process) is transmitted to the circulation water in its water jacket and the heat
energy is transported to the heating system/consumer. The design of the
boiler is optimized in order to achieve high efficiency and low cost heating
process, as well as easy maintenance, ash removal and servicing. The hot
water boiler of series “Pyrotherm” is manually fuel fed boiler. The
combustion process is organized in the combustion chamber of the boiler.
The set of the hot water wood gasification boiler of series
“Pyrotherm” consists of the following :
•
Hot water boiler of series “Pyrotherm” - 1 sp;
•
Combustion chamber ceramic directing element - 1 sp;
•
Thermovalve for control of air flow rate – 1 sp;
•
Steel ash cleaning brush – 1 sp;
•
Ash scrapper – 1 sp;
•
User manual for installation and exploitation of hot water boiler of
series “Pyrotherm” – 1 sp;

Basic information for the pyrolisis process.
The pyrolisis process is chemical decomposition of the biomass through
heating of the matter. The word pyrolisis is coined of two Greek words
„pyro” – fire and „lysis” – decomposition. The wood pyrolisis process is
realized at certain conditions, the products of this process are volatile gases,
which are utilized like gas combustion process. The pyrolisis gases are
extracted out of the fuel chamber and are directed through a ceramic nozzle
and oxidized in the combustion chamber, reaching high intensity of the
combustion process and high efficiency. This process have many advantages
– the combustion process could be optimized and allows efficient utilization
of the fuel material. The design of the how water boiler of series “Pyrotherm”
allows optimal conditions for the above mentioned process, so they are
