Communication Is Key to Successful Power Projects
Power plant construction and retrofit projects come in all shapes and sizes, but they all generally have at least one thing in common: complexity. There are usually a lot of moving pieces that must be managed. This can include sourcing the right materials and components, getting equipment delivered to the site at the right time, […]

Best Practices in Boiler Field Services
The field servicing of boilers is challenging. Often there are tough deadlines to meet, limited outage windows, severe space constraints, and many other difficulties to overcome. Here are some key best practices Rentech has gleaned from servicing hundreds of boilers (Figure 1) over the years. Know-How from the Start Projects usually arrive via a call […]

Can Utility-Scale Power Boilers Safely Fire Hydrogen?
There is plenty of enthusiasm around hydrogen as a possible alternative fuel to natural gas in combustion processes. Some hope it can eventually replace natural gas in applications such as utility boilers. However, any transition to 100% hydrogen has plenty of challenges to overcome due to it having such fundamentally different combustion characteristics. This gives […]

Industrial Boilers: What will it take to prepare them to run with hydrogen blends and for 100% hydrogen?
Sponsored by:Rentech Boiler SystemsHydrogen is very much in the news with respect to decarbonization demands. Environmental advocates believe it represents the best way to replace natural gas, oil, and coal as a fuel source in power generation and in other industrial applications. However, numerous challenges stand in the way of replacing natural gas and other fuels with hydrogen. […]

A Boiler for Any Occasion
Boilers obviously play an important role in the power generation industry, providing the mechanism to convert heat produced by burning fuel into steam that can be used to drive a turbine to generate electricity. But many other industries also use boilers to produce steam for a variety of purposes. Boilers are commonly used for space […]
