Furnace / Boiler Upgrade - Leirvik, Faroe Islands

Babcock & Wilcox Renewable Service upgraded the furnace and replaced the hot water boiler at Leirvik waste-to-energy plant in the Faroe Islands. The plant dates back to 1989 and was originally designed for 2.5 tons of waste per hour. The purpose of the plant upgrade was partly to increase the capacity of the plant and to extend the service life. The capacity was raised to 3.5 t/h, 12 bar and 140 °C and is expected to extend its useful life.

Onsite Inconel® Cladding and Combustion Air Upgrade - Sundsvall Energi AB

B&W Renewable Service won this project for onsite Inconel® cladding and combustion air upgrade at Korstaverket in Sundsvall, Sweden. The client also requested the possibility to increase the capacity of the boiler. We also performed a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model and recalculated all boiler parameters.

Economizer and Boiler Wall Replacement - Karlskoga, Sweden

For this project, B&W Renewable Service replaced the front boiler wall and economizers 1 and 2, as well as installed a new rapping device system for cleaning of the heating surface on a waste-to-energy plant (Line 1) in Karlskoga, Sweden.
