The ever increasing prices of energy coupled with decreasing availability of conventional energy sources and increasing dependence of our economy on energy for its growth and development, have perforce indicted that proper utilization of fuel is an important as the development of new or substitute energy resources.

The supply of poor quality of fuel not only aggravates the deteriorated production losses but also affect the boiler and thus causing capital losses due to their shortened life.

Low boiler efficiency & excess fuel consumption need for frequent laborious cleaning, fireside corrosion, costly maintenance & shutdown, environmental pollution etc. They all are the result of a single factor i.e. Formation of excessive smokes and soot. 

Formation of smokes & soot in turn is a result of incomplete combustion of fuel. Proper fuel preparation and correctly adjusted equipment ensure optimum combustion HEATER AID treatment will eliminate the balance soot. HEATER AID is complete post ignition fireside treatment in boilers. 

Fuel oil contaions carbon and hydrogen which,on combustion are converted into Carbon Dioxide and Water Vapour realizing large quantities of heat.If however, combustion is incomplete,the carbon may be converted into Carbon Monoxide which results in a liberation of only 52% of the total heat in the fuel.Under very poor combustion conditions,unburnt fuel may leave through the chimney carrying away the entire heat content of the fuel vapours.

C + O₂ = CO₂ + 8,084 KCAL/KG OF CARBON

2C + O₂ = 2CO + 2,430 KCAL/KG OF CARBON

"FOR EVERY KG OF UNBURNT CARBON, 8,084 KCALs OF HEAT IS LOST"

For every kg of carbon partially oxidized to carbon monoxide, 5,654kcal of heat is lost.incomplete combustion also leads to serious pollution problems (smoke and carbon monoxide). In a boiler, maximum permissible CO is 300ppm.

HEATER AID cause isotopic oxidation of unburnt of adherent soot & carbon deposits on the boiler smokes space including uptake and condition fly ash to be blown off with normal soot blowing operation, leaving heat transfer surface clean.

HEATER AID helps preventing clinker formation BAD THERMAL CONDITION. HEATER AID reduces thermal stress on the structure and save up to 5% or more on fuel consumption, reduces maintenance cost & DOWN TIME.

HEATER AID mixture specially contain zinc base which coat the boiler tubes & prevent corrosion. Zinc has higher conductivity than Iron. It helps the conductivity & zinc is also a WELL-KNOWN DE-SOOTER.

In high temperature zone scale is made up of low melting point compound of sodium, vanadium, sulfur and oxygen. These compounds once deposited are very difficult to remove and reduce thermal flow through heat transfer surfaces. Soot blower has no applicable effect on this deposit.

Thus usual chemicals compound formed on combustion of fuel containing sulfur, sodium, vanadium etc. are: -

These typical problems arise from the reaction of undesirable element in the fuel (Notably sulfur & vanadium) with oxygen in the air as well as the incomplete combustion of the fuel.

The catalyst promotes more complete combustion. This reduces the production of the soot & coke like deposits resulting from unburned and incomplete burned fuel. This important since deposit build like the proverbial SNOWBALL. Once a molten deposits adheres to the wall, it provides new surface to collect other particles which may not be adhesive themselves. Thus problem start with the first particles. By reducing the amount of particles above stricture point and by more complete combustion HEATER AID catalyst help to reduce this deposit problem.

Also of an importance is the fact that the HEATER AID allows the use of less air. This is a direct result of the more complete combustion. Oxygen has different attraction to different components in the fuel mixture. Oxygen preference is for hydrocarbons and the HEATER AID makes these hydrocarbons more “AVAILABLE”, to the oxygen (i.e. more complete combustion). This means a large proportion of the oxygen reacts with fuel and consequently a smaller part is available to react with sulfur and vanadium. And with less excess air there is a less total oxygen to react with these unwanted elements. Both sulfur and vanadium can combine with oxygen to form compound with varying amounts of oxygen in each molecule sulfur become SO₂  or sulfur powder. Without HEATER AID treatment Vanadium can range from vanadium oxide to V₂O₅, it is these high oxides that create the build of smut problem.

Of all the V₂O₅ create the most problem, it is the only V₂O₅ that is molten (liquid) at boiler operating temperature, and is therefore  “STICKY”, i.e. it will adhere to boiler walls & tubes, as will be explained in the next paragraph, promotes the formation of SO₃. SO₃ react with water (a production of combustion) to form sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄). This is highly corrosive material, which attack and destroy the boiler tubes. SO₃ is formed from reaction of sulfur dioxide with oxygen this can occur in two ways, in thermal reaction and involving V₂O₅.

The use of HEATER AID reduces the excess air (available oxygen) and thus retards these reactions by denying oxygen, V₂O₅ formation and less V₂O₅ for the catalyses reaction.

Thus HEATER AID reduces the formation of soot deposits and smut. By reducing the rate of formation, catalyst allows the self-cleaning processes occurring in boiler operation to clean away the build up of deposits that have already occurred. A boiler is self-cleaning (in principle) through various mechanisms including hot gas erosion (sand blasting by tribally particulate suspended in the exhaust gases), thermal expansion/contraction (boiler fired and off line) and fusion/re-structure (Freeze-melt surface tension effects upon cooling and reheating). By reducing the rate of deposition of adherents below the rate of erosion (as with the addition of HEATER AID catalyst, the full benefit of boiler self-cleaning can be realized. 

Combustion processes are characterized by the reaction of molecular fragments and free atoms, collectively called free radicals. These radicals are such that they interact with each other rather indiseiminately. While one observes only the end products too, which affect the combustion/heat transfers. Observation of certain operating parameters on Board will help the trained operator to produces reduction in fuel consumption (i.e. ISO 14000 HANDALCO at U.P. ; ISO 9000 SIYARAM MILLS LTD., at Maharashtra ; ISO 9000 KRISHNA VINYLS LTD., at Maharashtra ; ISO 9000 SHREE VIGHNAR S.S.K. LTD., at Maharashtra etc.)

Excess air can be reduced while maintaining a steady clean flame. This reduction is evidence of more complete combustion, hence higher utilization of available fuel. More complete heat transfer caused by the subsequent reduction in stack gas velocity may show up as a reduction in stack temperatures or other similar parameters. Better efficiency will also be apparent from a reduction in require clean tubes indicates more complete combustion therefore better efficiency.

80% to 85% decrease of total deposits, absence of hard slags formed on heat transfer surfaces and 75% decrease in the frequency of tube blowing.


Boiler which required water washing every 180 days, have extended the period to 700 days since using HEATER AID thus giving a considerable amount of money saving. The ability of the catalyst to allow a reduction in excess air prevent, acid corrosion in several ways with less air available to unit with sulfur and vanadium, the occurrence of V2O5 and SO3 is greatly reduced. The reduction in these corrosive compounds and the unproved acid dew point act to retard corrosion on boiler floor, earl bills and tubes as well as economizers stacks etc.

HEATER AID keep heat transfer surface clean, hence periodical cleaning is avoided. Generally cleaning methods are mechanical and chemical so avoided with all it subsequent disadvantage. The flue space cleaning is reduced to brooming of furnace and air blowing of tubes.

About 5% saving in fuel at any given load of sets the cost of HEATER AID many folds.

Since Boiler maintenance reduces the down time, boiler is available in the state of readiness at all times.

The oxidation of parent metal in the flue spaces is retarded.

HEATER AID being on line treatment no additional equipment or precaution is necessary in boiler operation.
