Boilers

We buy and sell industrial steam boilers to the processing industries. The basic purpose of any industrial steam boiler is to convert the chemical energy in fuel into thermal energy that can be used to generate steam or hot water.

Inside the combustion chamber, two fundamental processes must occur to achieve this objective. First, the fuel must be mixed with sufficient oxygen to allow a sustained combustion. The heated gases produced by the combustion process must then transfer the thermal energy to a fluid such as water or steam. Various components inside the boiler are required to promote efficient combustion and heat transfer. Common fuel sources include coal, electricity, natural or propane gas, oil, steam or hot water, and wood.

There are three basic types industrial steam boiler: fire tube, hot oil and water tube boilers. Manufacturers include Babcock Wanson, Byworth, Ruston, Cochran and Wellman Robey. We stock a large inventory of used, unused and boilers, please contact us with your requirements.
