Boiler and HRSG Consultancy Services

Consultant Profile

This is a single person consultancy. Plants/end users may use my services for technical support on existing boilers,for a second opinion before purchasing a Boiler/HRSG,evaluating different bids technically and asking the boiler supplier right questions before order or for existing Boiler/HRSG performance evaluation/improvement . With soaring fuel costs,plants are asking if the efficiency of their steam generator or HRSG can be improved. Options based on case to case can be studied. Steam temperature too low or high, superheater tube wall temperature too high, desuperheater spray too much,efficiency lower than predicted, what if boiler/HRSG has to operate under different gas/steam side parameters,checking boiler circulation are a few of the typical issues.
