CASE STUDY PILGRIMS HOSPITAL – 2.9MW BIOMASS STEAM BOILER DESIGN AND BUILD

A 2.9MW steam-raising woodchip boiler was installed at Pilgrims Hospital in Lincolnshire. Firing on woodchip, which is stored in newly constructed storage sheds, the boiler meets the heating and hot water requirements of the main hospital building. Working on a sub-contract agreement, ESP undertook design work associated with the steam and condensate installation, as well providing consultancy support on boiler specification. ESP ’ s steam specialist, Derek Short, advised the client on performance and statutory compliance issues whilst also overseeing elements of the steam and condensate fabrication. Woodchip boilers can deliver substantial cost savings, as well as reducing carbon emissions by around 90% compared to natural gas heating. It is estimated that carbon emissions at Pilgrims Hospital have been reduced by around 50% since the commissioning of the biomass system.
