Hybrid power for a volatile energy market

The hybrid steam boiler is Callens’ answer to fluctuating energy prices — reducing both operating costs and emissions.

High-capacity hybrid steam boiler

This 6.3 T/h hybrid steam boiler runs on both electricity and high-quality natural gas. Switching between energy sources happens instantly, making it easy to respond to market price changes.

Currently, only 2 T/h of steam is used, leaving plenty of capacity to boost production without needing to upgrade the boiler room.

“We’re very satisfied with the work delivered. Thanks to Callens, we’re taking a smart and steady ride on the wave of the energy transition.,” said the CEO.

Keeping energy use under control

Energy consumption is kept in check with:

  • Frequency-controlled pumps
    Reduce energy use, ensure consistent steam quality, and extend pump life.
  • Economiser 
    Uses flue gases to preheat the feedwater, raising efficiency to 95%.

Rental boiler bridges the transition

A Callens rental boiler with a capacity of 5 T/h kept production running smoothly during the boiler room renovation. The process temperature remained perfectly stable, and after eight weeks, the factory was back to full independent operation.

Technical specifications
  • Capacity: 6.3 T/h (4 T/h + 1.5 MW electric)
  • Design pressure: 13 barg
  • Operating pressure: 8 barg
  • NOx emissions: < 80 mg/Nm³
