Combustion & boilers
Refractory construction for combustion and boiler plants – wood combustion, thermal treatment, waste incineration, biomass and industrial boilers.
Refractory construction for Combustion & boilers
Combustion and boiler plants are among the chemically most aggressive operating environments for refractory materials. Chlorides, alkalis, heavy metals and changing fuel compositions load the lining in many different ways. SBS Refractory Service is your experienced partner for refractory construction on all types of combustion and boiler plant.
Whether a waste incineration plant, a biomass power station, a thermal treatment plant or an industrial boiler — we know the specific challenges of every plant type. Our material concepts are matched precisely to the type of fuel, the ash chemistry and the operating conditions.
Thanks to our SCC certification we also meet the strict safety requirements for work in contaminated areas. Our installation teams are specially trained and equipped for work in combustion plants.
Typical challenges
Chemical attack by chlorides, alkalis and heavy metals in the flue gas
Erosion by fly ash travelling at high particle velocity
Slagging caused by low-melting ash constituents
Changing fuel compositions call for flexible material concepts
Work in contaminated areas with special PPE
