BIO-MASSter Boiler and Integrated Combustion Control/Monitoring System HURST BIO-MASSter is one of the most advanced systems available for controlling biomass combustion and boiler operation. Our expertise combined with our commitment to improvement has allowed us to develop a biomass boiler and control system unsurpassed in the biomass industry. The system is fully automated and provides ultimate control and flexibility to meet the requirements of various biomass fuels. In addition, our product line includes Flat Grate, Underfeed, and Traveling Grate Stokers to meet any biomass burning requirement.

Biomass and bio-fuels provide a clean and renewable energy solution. Many green-thinking companies are using bio-fuels to:

  • Manage their impact on the environment
  • Reduce emissions of greenhouse gases
  • Cut energy costs
  • Generate revenue by the sale of carbon credits
  • Achieve energy independence
  • Reduce or eliminate waste disposal costs by using it as fuel

Hurst Boiler is a leader in the development of boiler technology as well as sustainable solutions for renewable energy.

Offering integration and scalability, the new, high-efficiency Integrated Control Systems from Hurst Boiler for boiler room monitoring and communications provide advanced supervisory boiler controls for all new and legacy Hurst products.

BIOMASSTER

Firing boilers on solid fuels has always been a challenge. With variables like fuel-moisture percentages and varying BTU values, achieving a constant and clean burn with solid fuels can be cumbersome at times.

The Biomasster system is designed as a complete monitoring and automated control system providing intuitive control of the boiler, fuel feed, and peripheral equipment operation. Through the HMI (human-machine interface), the operator is given a “dashboard" view of all the motors, devices, and processes relative to easy operation of the boiler. From the main operator's view, all points of the system are visible and easily accessible.

All Hurst solid fuel customers can upgrade to this new technology. The Biomasster system is easily adapted to any existing Hurst solid fuel boiler system.

Imagine the ease and lower cost of operation once this system is working for you.
