Biomass Boilers

Biomass Heating System Design

Biomass heating, in view of the low carbon nature of the technology, has now become accepted as a mainstream approach in the UK and provide an excellent platform for the achievement of a low carbon economy.

To support this, NIFES have designed a number of biomass boiler installations, initially starting with the feasibility of the project, which considers:

NIFES utilise our established techniques to analyse the energy data received in the context of the site characteristics established during the site survey.

In principle we will use the actual site data overlaid with typical profile information for similar sites to create seasonal profiles, for use in the assessment process.

The data collected is then analysed to yield a shortlist of possible options for the development of the scheme. These options will include the credible technology alternatives together with size considerations for the plant under a series of design scenarios.

We then collate a task plan for the development and implementation of the project, highlighting critical activities and possible risk factors. NIFES specialist biomass boiler engineers can then design, specify, project manage and install the system from inception to completion. We take away the burden of legislative compliance; NIFES liaises with local authorities if needs be to ensure the installation meets all national regulatory requirements.
