Fuel

Fuel


The source of heat for a boiler is combustion of any of  sevaral fuels , such as wood , coal , oil or natural gas. Electric steam boilers use resistance or immersion-type heating elements. Nuclear fission is also used as a heat source for generating steam. Heat recovery steam generators  (HRSGS) use the heat rejected from other processes such as gas turbines.
