Biomass Fuel Options & Combustion Systems

ISOTEX Ecotherm biomass fired thermic fluid heaters are engineered with advanced multi-fuel combustion systems capable of efficiently burning the full spectrum of agricultural, forestry, and industrial biomass waste fuels — converting low-cost waste streams into high-value process heat.

Indian Coal

Domestically sourced coal with variable GCV (3,000–4,500 kCal/kg); cost-effective primary fuel for continuous thermic fluid heating with stationary or bubbling bed grate systems

Imported Coal

High-GCV imported coal from Indonesia, South Africa, and Australia (5,000–6,500 kCal/kg); superior thermal performance for high-capacity, high-efficiency thermic fluid applications

Lignite Coal

Low-rank lignite with high moisture content (2,500–3,500 kCal/kg); optimised with dedicated bubbling bed combustion technology for full energy extraction

Low-GCV Coal

Sub-standard and washery reject coal grades (2,000–3,200 kCal/kg); utilised with advanced grate systems for maximum heat recovery from otherwise waste fuel streams

Mixed Coal (Indian + Imported)

Blended coal strategy combining Indian and imported coal grades; optimises fuel cost while maintaining consistent GCV input and stable thermic fluid outlet temperature

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

Carbon-Neutral Biomass Energy — Environmental Performance

ISOTEX Ecotherm biomass fired thermic fluid heaters deliver outstanding environmental performance — combining the inherent carbon-neutral and circular economy advantages of biomass waste combustion with advanced emission control and EcoVadis-certified manufacturing practices.

>95% Particulate Matter Removal

Multi-cyclone separator plus bag house filter achieves over 95% PM removal — stack emissions comply with CPCB norms for biomass-fired industrial heaters across all states

EcoVadis Sustainability Certification

ISOTEX holds EcoVadis sustainability certification providing independent third-party verification of our environmental, ethical, and supply chain management practices

Carbon Credit Opportunity

Biomass-fired renewable energy qualifies for renewable energy credits and carbon offset income under national and international carbon trading schemes

ESG Reporting Data

SMARTWIZ IoT generates verifiable carbon savings, biomass consumption, and energy efficiency records for annual ESG sustainability disclosures and investor reporting

Reduces Stubble Burning

Utilising paddy straw, mustard stalk, and crop residue as heater fuel directly reduces open field burning in Punjab, Haryana, and UP — a key contributor to seasonal air quality crises

Agricultural Waste Utilisation

Converting agro-waste (rice husk, mustard stalk, cotton stalk, bagasse) from waste disposal problem to productive fuel — eliminates field burning and supports India’s circular economy targets

Carbon-Neutral Biomass Combustion

Biomass combustion is recognised as carbon-neutral under UNFCCC international accounting standards when sourced from agricultural waste — combustion releases only the CO₂ absorbed during crop growth

Carbon-Neutral Biomass Energy — Environmental Performance

Combustion System Options

  1. Stationary Grate — Ideal for sized coal, larger lumps, and medium-GCV coal grades requiring extended burn time on a fixed bed

 2 Bubbling Bed — Advanced fluidised bed technology for mixed coal grades, variable moisture content, and low-GCV coals for consistent combustion

Fluidized cum Bubbling — Advanced combined fluidised and bubbling bed technology for mixed coal and biomass co-firing — maximum fuel flexibility for variable fuel availability scenarios

Technology Advantages

5 Technology Advantages of the Ecotherm Biomass Fired Heater

The Ecotherm delivers factory-assembled, plug-and-play biomass fired thermic fluid heating — eliminating traditional on-site erection costs and timelines while providing class-leading combustion flexibility, advanced automation, and long-term reliability for biomass HTF applications.

01

Modular Engineered Heater House

  • Up to 74% reduction in site installation costs through factory-assembled modular heater house design
  • Up to 46% reduction in space utilisation — compact modular layout for space-constrained industrial sites
  • Up to 50% reduction in refractory costs (material & labour) versus traditional site-erected heater houses

02

Advanced Soot Blowing Technology

  • Automated soot blowing system keeps heater tube surfaces clean — ensuring maximum heat transfer at all times
  • Effectively removes soot, ash, and deposit build-up from heater tubes — prevents progressive efficiency degradation
  • Improved fuel efficiency and reduced operating costs — clean tubes mean less fuel for the same heat output

03

Oil-Cooled Top Reversal — Efficiency Built to Last

  • Fully oil-cooled turnaround chamber unlike traditional refractory top cover designs — eliminates refractory cracking
  • Longer life: oil-cooled top eliminates refractory maintenance and frequent repair shutdowns associated with conventional designs
  • Low maintenance: trouble-free operation with minimal downtime — no refractory patching or annual repair campaigns

04

Thermic Fluid Preheater (TFPH) — Waste Heat Recovery

  • Smart energy-saving device recovers waste heat from coal flue gases to preheat thermic fluid — particularly valuable with higher flue gas temperatures from coal combustion
  • Heater efficiency improvement of up to 3% through flue gas heat recovery — directly reduces coal consumption and operating cost
  • Fuel savings: lower coal bills through improved thermal efficiency — TFPH pays back rapidly through reduced coal consumption

05

SMARTWIZ IoT Heater Control System

  • IoT-enabled heater control panel with real-time data monitoring, predictive maintenance alerts, and cloud-based analytics
  • 24/7 remote access: monitor heater temperature parameters
  • Data-driven insights: optimise coal feed rates, combustion air settings, and draft control to minimise coal consumption per kCal output
