Instructions on fire safety measures in a gas boiler room. Fire safety measures in the boiler room

The development of the domestic thermal power industry is inextricably linked with the names of Russian scientists and engineers. The foundations of heat engineering science were laid in the middle of the 18th century. the great Russian scientist M.V. Lomonosov. In 1766, the talented Russian heat engineer I.I. Polzunov created in Barnaul the world's first thermal power plant for driving factory mechanisms, which included a steam boiler. The practical use of steam power plants provided a new source of energy and played an important role in the development of industrial production. A number of theoretical and experimental works on the study of the working processes of boiler plants were carried out at the end of the 18th and beginning of the 11th centuries. scientists V.V. Petrov and Ya.D. Zakharov.

Boiler plants according to the type of heat carrier produced are divided into:

Steam (for generating steam);

Water heating (for the production of hot water).

A hot water boiler house has one heat carrier - water, in contrast to a steam boiler house, which has two heat carriers - water and steam. In this regard, in a steam boiler house, it is necessary to have separate pipelines for steam and water, as well as a tank for collecting condensate.

Boiler plants are equipped with water treatment devices, instrumentation and appropriate automation equipment, which ensures their uninterrupted and reliable operation. Hot water boiler plants are designed to produce hot water used for heating, hot water supply and other purposes.

Hot water and steam boilers differ depending on the type of fuel used, the design of boilers, furnaces, etc. The structure of both a steam and a water-heating boiler plant usually includes several boiler units, but not less than two and not more than four or five. All of them are interconnected by common communications - pipelines, gas pipelines, etc.

Boiler plants, depending on the type of consumer, are divided into:

Energy;

Industrial and heating;

Heating.

Power boiler plants produce steam for steam turbines in thermal power plants. Such boiler houses are equipped, as a rule, with boiler units of large and medium power, which produce steam with increased parameters.

Industrial heating boiler plants (usually steam) produce steam not only for industrial needs, but also for heating, ventilation and hot water supply.

Heating boiler plants (mainly water-heating, but they can also be steam) are designed to service heating systems, hot water supply and ventilation of industrial and residential premises.

Depending on the scale of heat supply, heating boiler houses are divided into local (individual), group and district.

According to the material of boiler structures - cast iron and steel.

According to the aerodynamic regime of the furnace - with a vacuum and with a pressurization.

According to the movement of combustion products and water - gas-pipe, water-pipe, gas-water-pipe.

According to design features: cylindrical, horizontal water tube, vertical water tube.

By the nature of the circulation of the working fluid - with natural or forced circulation.

In terms of transportability - stationary and mobile.

According to the currently accepted label steam stationary boilers in accordance with the circulation scheme of the coolant in them, they have the following designations:

E - with natural circulation;

Ep - with natural circulation and intermediate superheating of steam;

PR - with multiple forced circulation;

P - straight-through;

Pi - direct-flow with intermediate steam overheating;

Kp - with combined circulation and intermediate steam reheating.

To the designation of the boiler in numbers add:

steam capacity, T/h;

absolute pressure, kgf/cm 2 ;

furnace index (G - gas, M - fuel oil);

if the furnace is pressurized - the letter "n";

steam superheat temperature is shown in brackets.

For example: E-10-14G; Ep-16-14-GM(250).

Hot water boilers with a heat output of 4 ... 180 Gcal / h is denoted by the letters KV. The type of fuel burned (in letters), the heat output Gcal / h (in numbers), and the temperature of the heated water C are added to the designation.

For example: KV-GM-10-150.

Functionally, the boiler and its equipment can be divided into several parts (figure):

Fuel supply system;

Air supply system;

Burner devices;

Water supply system;

Boiler drum.

Figure - Functional diagram of the boiler

In accordance with the above diagram, the boiler unit itself includes:

A combustion device in which fuel is burned and flue gases are formed - highly heated combustion products;

Boiler (metal container), inside which the coolant circulates and through the surface of which heat is transferred from gases to the coolant;

A system of gas ducts used to remove flue gases into the atmosphere;

Devices for supplying fuel and air to the furnace, removing fuel combustion residues and combustion products, coolant circulation;

Pipeline systems for water, steam, air, structurally made as a single unit with the boiler unit.

Boiler plant - a set of one or more boiler units installed in one room and equipped with common auxiliary devices for fuel preparation, ash removal, water treatment and boiler feed, gas cleaning and removal.

to auxiliary elements boiler room include:

blowers required to supply air to the boiler furnace;

smoke exhausters-fans, contributing to increased draft and thereby reducing the size of the chimney;

feeding devices (pumps) necessary for supplying water to the boilers;

feed water treatment devices that prevent scale formation in boilers and their corrosion.

a water economizer is used to heat the feed water before it enters the boiler;

the air heater is designed to heat the air before it enters the furnace with hot gases leaving the boiler unit;

thermal control devices and automation equipment that ensure the normal and uninterrupted operation of all parts of the boiler room.

Armature boilers are devices and devices that ensure the safe and trouble-free operation of boilers and boiler equipment.

Boiler plants in accordance with Federal Law-116 "On the industrial safety of hazardous production facilities" belong to the category of hazardous production facilities with all the ensuing consequences regarding the requirements for ensuring safe operation.

Safety requirements for the operation of boilers are set out in the Rules for the Design and Safe Operation of Steam and Hot Water Boilers (Decree of the State Technical Supervision Service of the Russian Federation No. 88 dated 11.06.2003).

Allowed to work with boilers faces:

not younger than 18 years old;

with appropriate training;

passed the test of knowledge of the rules of operation;

who have been instructed.

The results of examinations and periodic testing of the knowledge of the attendants must be documented in a protocol signed by the chairman of the commission and its members and recorded in a special journal. Persons who have passed the exams are issued certificates signed by the chairman of the commission and the inspector of boiler supervision.

Permission is issued by order. Re-testing the knowledge of the operating personnel of the boiler room should be carried out periodically, at least once every 12 months.

Personnel servicing heat-using installations and heat networks must clearly understand the technological features of their enterprise (organization) and its significance for National economy, know and comply with these Rules, safety regulations, instructions and other directive materials.

During operation the operator (driver) of the boiler house is obliged:

receive and check the serviceability of the equipment, record the readings of instrumentation and A;

do not leave the workplace;

to ensure compliance with the mode of operation;

when performing work inside the boilers - the obligatory execution of a work permit signed by the beginning. boiler room;

daily check of serviceability of instrumentation (with an entry in the duty log);

checking safety valves (with an entry in the duty log).

During planned shutdown of boilers :

burn unused fuel;

when working on gas - reduce the gas supply, stop its supply, turn off the air supply;

blow and ventilate the firebox.

Stop the boiler immediately (with simultaneous notification to management and emergency services) in the following cases:

unregulated increase in temperature and pressure inside the boiler above the technological parameters;

lowering the water level;

faulty control and measuring equipment;

detection of cracks, bulges, ruptures of pipelines and other structural violations in the main elements of the boiler and casing.

Causes of accidents and prevention of steam boilers

Leakage of water often leads to explosions causing great destruction and accidents. Organizational reasons - violation of rules and regulations, absence of a fireman at the workplace. Technical reasons - the absence or malfunction of the sound indicator of the limiting water levels, the temperature sensor, the malfunction of the water-indicating glass.

1. Accidents of steam boilers due to unsatisfactory water conditions occur when untreated water is added to the boiler, scale appears on the boiler pipes, the locking latch on the furnace doors of the firing holes is absent or malfunctioning, through which flame, ash, slag and steam are often ejected, which leads to its turn to injury.

Prevention: regular monitoring of the quality of feed water, its chemical treatment, purging and rinsing, mechanical cleaning of boiler heating surfaces.

2. Accidents associated with the phenomenon of alkaline corrosion of metals occur as a result of the simultaneous impact on the metal of increased local stresses close to the yield strength or exceeding it, and alkaline-aggressive boiler water. All this is exacerbated by sudden changes in the operating mode of the boilers (fluctuations in loads and steam parameters, forcing kindling and cooling down of steam boilers). The danger arises at an alkali concentration of 100 g / l, i.e. at a 10% solution. The aggressiveness of water increases with an increase in its alkalinity. To control it, it is necessary to use indicator devices.

Prevention: regular inspections (detection of salt deposits on the outside of rivet joints or in places of pipe rolling, and during hydraulic tests, it is necessary to monitor the flow of water through leaky joints and joints); easy tapping of surfaces with a hammer (in the presence of “brittle” fractures, the rivet heads fall out of the holes); flaw detection.

3. Accidents in steam boilers due to excess operating pressure occur for the following reasons: malfunction or absence of pressure gauges of purge cocks, safety valves, their deliberate jamming or lack of adjustment to the allowed pressure; operation of the boiler at high pressure.

Organizational reasons: lack of training of personnel, violation of the requirements of the instructions or their absence, violation of the firing mode of the boiler.

4. Accidents of steam boilers due to the wear of their elements occur when the requirements of the rules for the safe operation of boilers are violated or ignored during preventive maintenance hours and when replacing defective components, parts, instruments and control devices.

The safety of gas boilers has many aspects. This is the possibility of ignition of the boiler room, gas explosion, poisoning of personnel with combustion products. To ensure complete safety, a set of measures and a wide range of different equipment is required.

Design solutions for the detection of gas contamination in the boiler room

The first priority is to ensure control of gas leaks by monitoring the composition of the air in the boiler room. Methane is lighter than air, so CH4 sensors must be placed under the ceiling to detect the methane concentration in a gas boiler building.

The project provides for the control of gas contamination in the premises with the help of stationary gas analyzers. Hazardous gas detectors (CH 4) have two thresholds.

At the 1st threshold (0.5% volumetric concentration) - a warning alarm is triggered.

At the 2nd threshold (1% volume concentration):

- an alarm is triggered;

- the gas supply is stopped by closing the solenoid valve at the inlet;

- technological ventilation is switched off;

- emergency ventilation is switched on;

- at the entrance, red signal lamps light up and a local sound alarm is triggered

Gas contamination signals are sent to the process control system.

Fire safety system design

Fire safety includes:
- Stops the physical supply of gas in case of fire or smoke in the gas boiler
- Design of external fire water supply with a supply of water for at least 3 hours.
- The correct location of the entrances to the gas boiler fire equipment, the supply time should not exceed 10 minutes.
- Device for exhaust and supply smoke ventilation
- Arrangement of emergency exits
- Design of automatic fire extinguishing installation
- Installation of a modern fire alarm
- Installation of evacuation lighting and warning systems

When a signal is received about smoke (fire) in the premises from fire detectors installed on the ceilings to the common control panel of the boiler house building, the systems are turned on depending on the prevailing situation and the general ventilation is turned off.

Design of a process control system for a gas boiler house

All security systems are combined with a single process control system. The boiler house project includes a set of sensors and measuring instruments, signal dispatching systems and the premises of a single control room for a gas boiler house. The design also includes the development of software and the operator's workplace.

Design solutions for grounding and lightning protection

Common causes of fire are lightning strikes and electrical discharges from industrial activities. To ensure the electrical safety of gas boilers, it is necessary to develop a system for equalizing potentials and lightning protection.
