Operation of a wood stove: saves on heating

10/10/19

Have you ever wondered how the operation of a wood stove is? These types of industrial stoves can help you save up to 90% on the energy bill of your business. If you generate woody waste, this is your option.
The operation of industrial wood stoves allow you to take advantage of any type of woody waste generated by your business to provide hot air to your premises. Industrial buildings, commercial premises, enclosures dedicated to the agricultural sector … A stove of these characteristics can mean an energy saving of more than 90% in your bill.
 
They are an ideal alternative for carpentry or companies that work with wooden pallets or other woody waste originating in their manufacturing processes. We tell you why.

How does an industrial wood stove work?

The first thing you should know is that these types of stoves are formed by several steel sheets, joined by welding. To this material is added cast iron, which is responsible for providing adequate heat resistance. In addition, they are usually equipped with a door (usually front) that resists very high temperatures, up to 800 degrees Celsius. 

The operation of a wood stove is to incinerate the wood and subsequently discard the smoke. For this reason they have two entrances: one of combustion air and another post combustion.
The hot air distribution process is carried out through a gap, which causes the air to heat up when it comes into contact with the walls of the stove. The grilles, meanwhile, channel the hot air outlet to the rest of the environments.
 

In summary: wood stoves do not heat by burning wood or firewood, but thanks to a combustion process where the wood reaches very high temperatures and ends up releasing combustible gases. These are responsible for providing heat.

Example of operation of a wood stove

Here is a practical example of how an industrial wood stove works. In a 600m2 industrial warehouse located in Almansa (Albacete) they have installed a 100kW MET MANN model EP-100 stove. The total investment of the equipment and installation has been about € 6,000. If this business had opted for a diesel or gas heating system, the initial investment would have been double.

The secret is in the operation of wood stoves. Let′s say that the installation consumes 25 kilos of wood per hour. However, the company is totally free because it takes advantage of the woody waste that the company itself generates in the development of its activity – currently the price of the log is 12 cents per kilo-, which would not happen if they had opted for a heating with diesel or gas.
If this business had opted for a diesel or gas heating system, the initial investment would have been double. They would also have to use a fuel, with its consequent cost. In the case of the Almansa industrial building, the installation consumes 25 kilos of wood per hour.
For this reason, industrial wood-burning stoves with fans are an alternative increasingly valued by users for their efficient, ecological and fast amortization operation.
In addition, recent increases in traditional energy prices – with prospects of continuing to increase – make this type of system an efficient, economical option that in turn generates local jobs.
