How to clean the accumulated dust from the gas burner?
When using a gas burner, coking and ash accumulation often occur in the nozzle and furnace, which not only affects the uneven heat transfer of the heating surface and exacerbates the wear of the heating surface, but also cannot raise the temperature, resulting in the inability to carry out normal production. So, what causes coking and ash accumulation in gas burners? How to solve it? Let’s learn together below!
When selecting fuel for gas burners, a single pure wood particle should be chosen. Generally, pure wood particles are not prone to coking and ash accumulation. At present, the better options on the market are miscellaneous wood, oak, pine, and rosewood. If acceptable, rosewood can be chosen. Pure rosewood particles have a higher calorific value than other particles and ensure no coking. The appropriate particle fuel length for gas burners is 6mm and 8mm. Particles that are too short or too long are prone to coking and tempering.
If the dust removal of the raw materials for gas burners is not clean, or if the raw materials are oily and the particles burned also contain dust or grease, coking may occur. Try to minimize the use of crushed materials for particles. Some particles are compressed with wood powder, resulting in hard particles that cause incomplete combustion and coking. The raw materials for fuel must be dry. The built-in parameters of the gas burner must be changed arbitrarily. Changing the equipment parameters arbitrarily can easily cause abnormalities in the gas burner. If it is necessary to change the equipment parameters, please operate under the guidance of professional personnel.
During the operation of the gas burner, operators need to periodically observe the combustion of particulate fuel in the furnace through the observation port. Cleaning method for gas burner: Remove the equipment used for the gas burner and gently tap the coke block from the nozzle with a wooden or iron rod to remove it from the gasification chamber. Reducing the air intake while ensuring no smoke can reduce carbon buildup.
In summary, this is an introduction to the causes and solutions of coking and ash accumulation in gas burners. In addition, the air distribution, furnace design, and feeding speed of gas burners can also cause coking, so please pay attention when using them. If you don’t understand, it’s better to find a professional to clean it up.
