Power Generation: Biomass

Biomass Power Plants generates power from biomass fuels such as wood pellets, bagasse and hog fuel.

This fuels are susceptible to spontaneous combustion since it can occur at any stage of storage, production or transport. Early detection of fire or combustion is important for safety control.

Monitoring of industrial boilers is also important to oversee boiler performance and improves efficiency.

It is essential to measure the burner/flame and steam temperatures in an industrial boiler to prevent refractory and boiler tube fouling or damage and unnecessary fuel consumption.

VisionTIR offers different solutions for an early detection of fire and to optimize your boiler operation.

  • Industrial Boiler Monitoring

    Monitoring the temperatures of burner/flame and steam in an industrial boiler is essential. Our ProTIR system will provide accurate temperature monitoring to prevent refractory and boiler tube fouling or damage and unnecessary fuel consumption within an industrial boiler.

  • Storage silo

    Biomass fuels are stored in large piles or silos which is a fire risk because of spontaneous heating and combustion. FireTIR System is a flexible solution based in radiometric infrared cameras for early fire detection of fire hazards and hot spots before a fire breaks out.

  • Conveyor Belts

    Biomass fuels are moved from storage pile or silo to a mill conveyor belt where spontaneous heating may occur.  Our FireTIR System can detect hot spots quickly before a fire breaks out.
