Problems and probable reasons A lot of ash in the boiler

Slagging in the boiler

→ fuel contains biomass with high ash content (bark, seed residues, leaves, needles etc.) → biomass is contaminated with sand & dirt → contains waste products → fuel contains biomass with low melting lti ttemperature t (bark, (b k seed d residues, leaves, needles etc.) → biomass is contaminated with sand & dirt → contains waste products → not proper technology

20

Problems and probable reasons

21

Deposits and corrosion → fuel contains “not clean” biomass, high content of sulphur & chlorine → contains waste products Poor combustion → too high content of dust → too t high hi h moisture i t content t t → air supply is too low

Visual combustion control: smoke None, or only quite thin, visible smoke White smoke, that quickly di disappears iin open air i

22

Good combustion with a sustainable pp y of air supply The smoke contains water vapour from ffuel el moisture moist re

Visible greyish or dark smoke. Can occur visible carbon particles

The smoke contains ash particles. Can be controlled through the primary and secondary air supply. Possibly the air speed is too high through the boiler

Thick, dark smoke with a smell of tar

Bad combustion with high amount of un-burnt carbon. Ensure that the air supply l fit fits th the amountt off fuel f l being b i burned Source: English Handbook for Wood Pellet Combustion,
