To burn any solid fuel efficiently two stages of combustion must be achieved: Primary Combustion and Secondary Combustion (also known as gasification).
• Primary combustion is normal burning as occurs in a traditional open fire. Gasses are released by the solid fuel naturally during primary combustion and in an open fire the chimney draws these un-burnt gasses and a substantial amount of heat straight out into the atmosphere. Open fires therefore result in a very poor combustion efficiency and typically an open fire has an efficiency of 25% or lower. As well as poor combustion efficiency in a traditional open fire other downsides include high fuel consumption, soot deposits collecting in the chimney increasing the risk of chimney fires and the release of harmful smoke emissions to the environment.
• To improve the combustion efficiency enormously secondary combustion or gasification must occur and with our contemporary closed fire and stove systems a number of factors enable gasification to occur:

• 1. Firebox Temperature • The construction of the closed firebox or stove retains the heat from primary combustion very effectively. Depending on the individual appliance this is achieved by the material used (cast iron or high temperature natural firebrick linings) as well as high temperature insulation. Much higher temperatures in the firebox need to be reached (typically over 571 Degrees Celsius) for secondary combustion to occur and this temperature can never be reached in an open fire. At the higher temperature the primary combustion gasses from the solid fuel ignite and secondary combustion occurs.

• 2. Flue Valve • Each manufacturer has their own unique flue valve system and the end result is basically the same. The flue valve is normally controlled automatically and its function is to retain the primary combustion gasses within the firebox until the high temperature is reached. Unlike a traditional open fire the chimney is only fully open when the door of the appliance has been opened for re-fuelling. Yes it is always open to some degree to allow smoke to exit but the flue valve deflects the gasses back into the firebox to be burned.

• 3. Secondary Air Supply • The introduction of a secondary air supply to the firebox is also very important if secondary combustion is to occur. Typically a primary air supply will be delivered to the fire from underneath the fire bed for primary combustion. A secondary air supply is then introduced higher up on the firebox normally, but nor always, through channels around the door.

• It is the combination of the secondary air supply, the high firebox temperature and the primary combustion gasses in the firebox that results in Secondary Combustion or gasification giving very high levels of combustion efficiency.

• Benefits of Secondary Combustion :
a) The primary combustion gasses from the fire are burned off generating heat that is never obtainable in an open fire. The increase in heat generated by secondary combustion results in much lower fuel consumption and therefore substantial fuel savings.

b) The smoke emissions from the chimney are much cleaner and kinder to the environment even if burning fossil fuels such as coal or anthracite (as in our range of FLAM Multi-Fuel appliances).
c) Combustion efficiency rises from 25% or below in an open fire to over 75% and in some cases peaking at over 90% in a closed system depending on the appliance and the quality of the fuel.
d) Chimneys remain much cleaner as a result of almost complete combustion greatly reducing the risk of chimney fires. It goes without saying that the quality of the fuel is always important. For example burning wood with a high moisture content is never a good idea in any fire, open or closed. The moisture in the wood creates tar which builds up as deposits in the chimney over time and this will always be a chimney fire hazard.
• Note: Wood Gasification or Wood Log Boilers (see product catalogue) also achieve gasification in the format of a heating system boiler as opposed to a fire or stove.

€500 off all showroom models while stocks last

Altech has been producing various types of stoves since 1983, built of a combination of cast iron and Brasilian soapstone. The traditional types like the Vision, Palladian and Fireview store the heat for 3 to 4 hours.

The soapstone heat from our fireplaces vibrates at precisely the same wavelength of your body radiation, at 8-9 µm. Scientists say this explains a lot about the general appreciation for the quality of our heat, which we have recorded over the years. The wavelength of hot metal surfaces is much shorter. It feels aggressively hot when close by, but does not reach far.
Forced-air heating produces a vertical temperature difference of up to 50 degrees, producing a warm head and cold feet. Your body can’t adjust to that. The thermostat in an air heating system controls the air temperature at the level of the thermostat, while creating the illusion that a desired "room temperature" has been achieved. But to be really comfortable, the room would need to have height differences, as in a sauna.
With radiant heat, the heat difference is horizontal. So, by moving closer to or further from the heat source, both older people sensitive to cold and younger people can find an area in the same room where they feel comfortable.

Gasifying Boilers for Wood WoodGasificationBoiler_1_.gif

If you have timber freely available why pay for Oil or Gas to heat your home. This boiler will heat your home for less. very easy to use and there is a €2,000 SEI grant available for these units.

CLICK HERE OR MORE INFORMATION>>>>>

 


The boilers are constructed for burning wood on the principle of generator gasifying with the use of a gas exhaust ventilator, which withdraws the combustion gases from the boiler, or leads air into the boiler.

The boiler body is produced as a weldment of 3-8 mm steel sheets. They comprise the fuel hopper, which is equipped at the bottom with a heatproof pipe fitting with longitudinal hole for the combustion gases and passage of gases. The burnout part of the multiple chamber furnace under the fuel hopper is equipped with ceramic pipe fittings. There is a vertical combustion gas duct in the back of the boiler body, which is equipped with a heating valve in the upper section. The upper part of the combustion gas duct is fitted with a gas exhaust outlet for connection to a chimney.

We also stock a combined boiler for use with pellet and wood

ENVIRONMENT

Reverse combustion and a ceramic combustion chamber enable perfect combustion with minimum polluting emissions. The boilers comply with environmentally-friendly product requirements according to Guideline No. 13/2002 of the Czech Ministry of Environment. They comply the European Standard EN 303-5 and all the boilers rate in class 3

 

INSTALLATION

ATMOS boilers must be connected via the LADDOMAT 21 or ESBE thermoregulation valve to achieve keeping the minimum temperature of water returning to boiler at 65°C. The temperature of water exiting the boiler must be permanently kept between 80º - 90°C. The default configuration of all boilers includes a cooling circuit to prevent overheating. We recommend installing boilers with accumulation tanks.

CERTIFICATION

All ATMOS boilers are certified in testing laboratories for the individual countries of destination: State Testing Laboratory Brno, TÜV Munich - Germany, Lithuania, Ukraine, Sweden, Poland, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary according to current standards - EN 303-5.

Protected by patent.


Advantages of Wood Gasification Boilers ATMOS:

* Option to burn large pieces of wood
* Primary and secondary air is also preheated to a high temperature -    higher effectiveness
* The ventilator automatically switches off when the fuel but out.
* Ceramic combustion space - high effectiveness
* Large fuel container
* Large space for ash (when burning wood you have to clean it once per    week)
* Boiler without tube plate - easier cleaning
* Small size and low weight
* High quality
