Boiler Solutions for Power & Utilities Industry

Power & Utility Plants

Cleaver-Brooks designs, manufactures and maintains reliable, efficient and sustainable boilers for power generation. For cogeneration, our saturated and superheated boilers are ideal.

Our proven steam boiler design enables the burning of a wide fuel range, while reducing the impact of slagging, fouling, corrosion and erosion in the furnace.

Which Boiler is Best for Utilities and Power Generation?

Heat recovery steam generators (HRSG) and waste heat boilers are used in many areas of the utilities industry to recycle otherwise wasted heat from the manufacturing process. This heat is then turned into steam or hot water, reducing both carbon emissions and fuel costs.

The Cleaver-Brooks HRSG line utilizes the exhaust from gas turbines or reciprocating engines to achieve efficiencies of more than 80%, compared to 56% for traditional technologies such as conventional electricity generation and an onsite boiler.

What are the Benefits of Combined Heat and Power or CHP?

Combined Heat and Power, or CHP, can increase overall plant efficiency by 30% to 40%, adding onsite power generation and heat recovery required for downstream heating or process needs.

The HRSG is an integral component to any CHP system. When coupled with selective catalytic reduction (SCR), an HRSG can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, while also providing plant reliability and increased efficiency.
