Waste management service provider seeks temporary boiler hire

Having provided a well-known recycling company with a stand-in boiler arrangement earlier this year, the client was confident in our ability to deliver similar equipment when a more recent requirement surfaced. On that occasion, the company noted a reduction in the efficiency of their combined heat and power plant (CHP) caused by an undetected leak in their system.

Despite the fault being addressed back in March, a similar issue has since occurred on another part of the energy system which prompted our intervention once again. Without a replacement heating source, the anaerobic digestion process would be greatly affected by slowing down the conversion of waste to renewable energy.

Previously, a 250kW boiler was used to deliver the necessary heating capacity but lower temperatures in September meant that a slightly larger unit would be required this time around. For this reason, we specified the hire of a 300kW boiler which was installed ahead of our customerโ€™s CHP system being upgraded.

Our prior knowledge of the site and understanding of the practises undertaken at the recycling plant allowed us to quickly devise, deliver and implement a temporary boiler solution and eliminate the risk of costly downtime. As a result, the client was able to uphold their normal electricity production quotas and ensure that a vital energy source remained constantly available.
