Reliable Steam Solutions with Corner Tube Boiler Technology

The corner tube boiler has become a widely recognized solution in industries that demand continuous, stable, and high-capacity steam production. Designed with a unique structural layout, the corner tube boiler integrates a natural circulation system supported by external downcomers placed at the four corners of the furnace, forming a rigid and reliable frame.

This configuration ensures excellent pressure-bearing performance and extended operational life, while also allowing the boiler to maintain a large water capacity and a steady steam output even under fluctuating loads. As a result, the corner tube boiler is often selected by enterprises that cannot tolerate significant steam pressure or flow instability, which is particularly important in processes where production continuity determines overall efficiency.

ZOZEN DHL Corner Tube Boiler: Technical Strength and Operational Advantages

Among ZOZEN’s corner tube boiler offerings, the DHL coal-fired steam boiler stands out for its comprehensive approach to structural stability, combustion performance, and long-term reliability. The boiler adopts a membrane-wall furnace combined with a single-drum corner tube layout, which reinforces the overall structure and ensures the system remains firmly supported under high loads. This arrangement enhances sealing performance and reduces heat loss through the furnace walls. The boiler’s elevated grate system is designed for reliable fuel combustion, enabling the furnace to maintain strong firepower and consistent heat release during extended operation.

The circulation system of the DHL corner tube boiler relies on natural circulation driven by density differences between the downcomers and risers. Because the four exterior downcomers are symmetrically arranged at the furnace corners, the force distribution remains balanced, which helps maintain circulation stability even when the boiler is operating at high steaming rates. The convection heating surface, composed of tightly arranged tubes, further increases heat exchange efficiency, ensuring that water absorbs heat evenly and transitions into high-quality steam. The boiler is built with a large furnace volume and a long flue-gas travel path to achieve full combustion, while the air distribution design improves mixing between fuel and air to reduce unburned particles.

To enhance operational efficiency, the DHL corner tube boiler is equipped with an economizer and an air preheater. These components utilize the boiler’s residual heat to warm feedwater and combustion air, decreasing the system’s overall fuel consumption and enabling the boiler to maintain stable thermal performance during continuous operation. By adopting grate systems with reliable speed control and uniform air distribution, the boiler supports smooth fuel feeding and minimizes the operational fluctuations that often occur with coal-fired equipment. Moreover, the water treatment and monitoring systems designed for the DHL series provide users with consistent steam purity, which is crucial for industries with strict product sanitation or process requirements.

The control system integrates temperature, pressure, and combustion monitoring to help operators maintain a stable working environment. While the boiler is engineered for long-term durability, ZOZEN places equal emphasis on simplifying on-site maintenance. Accessible inspection ports, optimized tube layouts, and well-designed cleaning channels contribute to maintaining the boiler’s performance during prolonged industrial use. Through these features, the DHL corner tube boiler demonstrates how advanced engineering can support both thermal performance and dependable daily operation.

Case Study: PT Angels Products Refinery and its Steam Demand

PT Angels Products has been engaged in sugar refining since 2003 and has grown into one of the well-recognized refineries in Banten. Sugar refining requires a stable and substantial quantity of steam because almost every processing stage depends on precise thermal conditions. During decolorization, evaporation, crystallization, and drying, steam plays a central role in transferring heat efficiently and uniformly. At the same time, food-industry hygiene standards require steam for sterilization and sanitation, making the quality of steam a crucial factor influencing the consistency and purity of the final product.

Given its commitment to producing high-quality sugar, PT Angels Products places strict expectations on its steam systems. The company needed equipment that could support continuous high-load operation, maintain dependable output, and provide steam with stable pressure and purity. After evaluating multiple suppliers and completing technical comparisons, the refinery selected the ZOZEN 75 t/h DHL corner tube boiler as its primary steam source. The decision was rooted in the boiler’s structure, combustion stability, and its ability to maintain strong steam production throughout extended production cycles.

Because the boiler was supplied as a bulk unit, the installation process required careful handling and a high standard of on-site assembly. To ensure construction quality, ZOZEN collaborated closely with a trusted local agency, coordinating logistics, supervising installation steps, and ensuring that every assembly process met engineering requirements. Once installation was completed, performance testing showed that the boiler met the refinery’s output, pressure stability, and steam quality expectations. The furnace demonstrated steady combustion, and the convection surfaces delivered uniform heat absorption, resulting in reliable steam production during the refinery’s demanding operational schedule.

The refinery reported that the boiler’s performance aligned well with its need for consistent and high-pressure steam. Because sugar refining involves continuous heating and controlled evaporation, the stable output of the corner tube boiler supported smoother process flow and reduced interruptions in the production line. The high steam purity also met the sanitation requirements for food-grade applications. Through this project, the 75 t/h DHL corner tube boiler demonstrated its suitability for industries with large, consistent, and hygiene-dependent steam demand.
