3 Good Reasons To Consider An SCRS For Water Tube Boilers

Posted on

As the owner of an industrial operation or business, your water tube boiler serves you and your company very well. From generating steam to power equipment to providing hot water and heat for the building, these industrial implements go far beyond general heat generation. Even better, most of the water tube boilers in use have been around for many years since these systems are designed to function for years on end without failing. However, there is one change that really should be made to a dated water tube boiler: adding an SCRS (Selective Catalytic Reduction System). Here is a look at a few of the best reasons to consider adding an SCRS to your boiler systems.  

SCRS may help lower the levels of nitrous oxide emissions. 

Nitrous oxide emissions can be incredibly damaging to the environment and to the people, plants, and animals within that environment. It is a common problem for industrial operations to combat issues with these emissions because they rely on so many pieces of equipment that reduce the gas as part of normal operation. Unfortunately, water tube boilers that rely on certain types of fuel can be major producers of nitrous oxide, which can definitely be problematic. 

SCRS may be a component in helping your company save money. 

Just about all industrial operations are faced with major costs depending on the volume of emissions produced by the company, especially in certain areas that have extra taxes and fees for companies according to the levels of emissions generated. If you are looking to lower how much you pay, an SCRS may be one simple implement that can help. If you have multiple boilers in your operation, the multiple SCRS implements could yield you even more savings. 

SCRS may give your employees and you a safer workplace environment. 

Workplace safety is a huge concern, especially in industrial operations where there can be a number of liabilities at play and a lot of employees within the vicinity at any given moment. Even dangerous nitrous oxide emissions from equipment like a water tube boiler can be considered a liability for your place of business, and this could potentially lead to a lot of money. if an employee gets sick or injured due to too much nitrous oxide exposure, you as the business owner could be held liable. Having your water tube boilers outfitted with SCRS can help negate some of the risks.
