Emissions

Complying with emissions regulations is an important concern for industrial facilities operating a boiler room. On the federal level in America, the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 were established by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to reduce pollutants that harm the ozone layer, air quality, and visibility.

While facilities value energy efficiency, they need equipment to also stay cost-effective and produce adequate steam. With Miura’s modular steam boilers, facilities don’t have to choose one or the other. Miura prides itself on equipping facilities with energy-efficient boilers that match fluctuating load demands and produce full steam in five minutes – no more energy wasted on waiting for burners to heat up.


NOx Emissions

When choosing a steam boiler for your facility, the amount of nitrogen oxides (NOx) emissions is important to consider. NOx is a family of poisonous gases created from burning fuel at high temperatures. Everyday vehicles emit NOx regularly, but industrial equipment, including steam boilers, commonly emit it at a higher rate. Limiting the amount of NOx your steam boiler releases reduces occurrences of acid rain, smog, and deterioration of the ozone layer.
