Mustard husk is an excellent fuel with a GCV ranging from 3800 to 4100 Kcal/kg, which is significantly higher than many other agricultural residues and comparable to some grades of coal.

While our boilers can handle loose mustard husks, Mustard Briquettes are often preferred for larger industrial boilers because they offer a higher energy density, lower storage volume, and a more controlled burn rate.

Yes. All mustard husk-fired boilers from IndianBoilers.com are manufactured according to IBR standards, ensuring they are safe for high-pressure applications in dairies, textiles, and chemical plants.

Depending on the moisture content and boiler efficiency, 1 ton of mustard husk typically generates 3.4 to 3.9 tons of steam.

Mustard ash has a lower fusion temperature, which can cause "clinkering." We design our furnaces with larger grate areas and controlled air-cooling to keep the furnace temperature below the ash melting point.

For loose husks, a Pulsating Grate is ideal. For mustard briquettes, we recommend a Reciprocating or Traveling Grate to ensure uniform air distribution and automatic ash discharge.

We use VFD-controlled screw conveyors for loose husks or hydraulic pushers for briquettes. The system is synchronized with the steam pressure to ensure the boiler "fires up" or "damps down" automatically.

Yes. Our mustard husk boilers are multi-fuel capable. The furnace is robust enough to handle wood, coal, or other agri-residues if mustard husk is seasonally unavailable.

Biomass fuels like mustard husk have high volatile matter. A larger furnace volume provides the necessary residence time for these gases to burn completely, preventing fuel wastage and smoke.

Mustard husk produces approximately 3% to 5% ash. This ash is relatively light and is easily managed by our automated ash handling systems.

If the flue gas velocity is too high, the ash can be abrasive. We design our boilers with optimized gas velocities and use thick-gauge IBR tubes to minimize wear and extend the boiler's life.

To maintain peak efficiency, we recommend using the integrated Soot Blowers once per shift. This prevents ash buildup on the smoke tubes and keeps heat transfer at maximum levels.

For efficient combustion, moisture should be below 12–15%. Mustard husk is naturally quite dry, but if it gets damp during monsoon, it should be blended with dry fuel to prevent white smoke.

Yes. Our PLC-based control panels are IoT and SCADA-ready, allowing you to monitor steam pressure, fuel consumption, and stack temperature from your smartphone or office.

Since mustard husk is significantly cheaper than Diesel or Furnace Oil, most industrial units see a full Return on Investment within 10 to 14 months.

We install a Multi-cyclone Dust Collector (MDC) as standard. For stricter norms, we provide Bag Filters to ensure the chimney discharge is clean and meets all Pollution Control Board (PCB) standards.

Yes. It is a renewable energy source. The carbon dioxide emitted during burning is equal to the amount the mustard plant absorbed during its growth cycle.

Many states offer capital subsidies or interest subventions for biomass-based green energy projects. We provide the technical documentation required to support your subsidy application.

Based in Ahmedabad, we are experts in the regional fuels of India. Our mustard husk boilers feature a rugged 3-pass design, high-quality refractory, and heavy-duty automation, ensuring they survive the rigors of Indian industrial environments.
