Utilities - Water Bio-digester Heating Kent 2000kW Boiler Hire

On-site boilers at a bio-digester plant had failed, resulting in an interruption of the fuel gas production process due to system cooling. The challenge was to quickly design and implement a temporary replacement system to restore operation, while a long-term solution was implemented.

What Did We Do?

Our expert attended site and carried out a survey to identify the nature and scale of the problem. A system design and project plan was produced to address the heating requirements.

How Did We Do It?

Once the approach was agreed with the customer, we employed a large HIAB plus trailer to deliver a 2MW boiler to site, supported by a 20,000ltr fuel tank. This was connected by flexible pipework to the main flow and return heating coil using the customer’s flange connections.

The Results

Once installed and commissioned, the hire boiler quickly generated sufficient hot water to restart the biological process within the bio-digester. Full production of fuel gas was rapidly re-established. The timely intervention eliminated the need to remove the inactive contents and restart the entire process, resulting in significant savings in time, cost, and productivity.

The Regional Sales Manager at Carrier Rental Systems said: “The project enabled continuity of operation at the plant, upon which more than 1 million customers depended. It highlights the importance of a rapid response and a tailored solution to ensure a successful outcome.”
