The BWD60 boilers replace the three-pass fire tube boilers in the main plant room that had come to the end of their working lives.
Lallemand GB’s project manager Evert Wijnberg explains: “BWD60s have a slightly higher capacity than the boilers they replaced.”
The other key element was the use of Babcock Wanson’s prestige BW72H control system, which alleviates the normal demands of running a steam boiler with its in-built self-checking controls and minimal testing needs. This has enabled the firm to manage its complex steam demand pattern while reducing costs.
Evert says: “The more successful we are at managing the balance between the two boilers and the steam demand pattern, the more we can reduce the energy bill and make the best return on our investment.”
