Hybrid power for a volatile energy market

Decospan Menen VKK 4 T 15 MW PRJ240302 4

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

Capacity6.3 T/h (4 T/h + 1.5 MW electric)
Design pressure13 barg
Operating pressure8 barg
NOx emissions< 80 mg/Nm³

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. The installation team built the boiler neatly, and we were quickly up and running with the hybrid system.

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.
