Biomass Steam Boiler Overview
Rising oil prices and increased demand for cleaner energy sources prompted many boilermakers to reinvent the conventional use of biomass to generate steam and heat. Modern biomass boilers incorporate cutting-edge technology to create autonomous systems that do everything from ash removal and air and emissions control.
Thanks to the evolution of steam boilers, there are now various sizes, designs, and manufacturers, each offering cutting-edge technologies and a glimpse of more to come.
What Is a Biomass Steam Boiler?
Biomass boilers create heat by burning naturally occurring/non-fossil fuels. Fuels such as wood chips, wood logs, and wood pellets can be used in biomass boilers.
How Does a Biomass Steam Boiler Work?
Biomass steam boilers are simple and easy to use. They burn wood chips, logs, pellets, or other biological materials resulting in hot gas and air that goes through a flue and then through a heat exchanger, where the heat is transferred to the water used for central heating. Thermal tanks store excess heat.
Performance and Features of Biomass Steam Boiler
The efficiency of these boilers can reach 80-90% when properly installed and maintained, a significant difference from many fossil fuel boilers. Your boiler’s efficiency is primarily determined by the type of fuel it uses. Water content and density are crucial factors in evaluating a fuel’s energy efficiency. Well-seasoned logs and wood chips tend to have the most moisture content and, therefore, low energy yield per ton, followed by wheat and then wood pellets.
The parts of Biomass Steam Boiler are
- Feeder
- Chain grade

The Pros and Cons of Biomass Steam Boilers
Biomass heating systems offer many benefits. Most of them can be easily integrated with already existing space heating systems. In addition to lowering your home’s carbon footprint, these technologies also have fantastic financial benefits. Indeed, biomass steam boilers can make up for their initial installation cost quickly, plus biomass fuel is cheaper than fossil fuel, and depending on your country, you may be up for some payment from government initiatives and schemes.
The other thing is that biomass steam boilers are simple to install and maintain. However, they require a little more than their gas and oil cousins. You must do things like de-aching, lubrication, etc., regularly to maintain lifespan and efficiency.
