Steam boiler specialist, Fulton, has
supplied Advanced Plasma Power
(APP) with one of its Electropack
EP60 steam boilers, almost tripling
the steam capacity at the company’s
Swindon Gasplasma test facility.

With its Gasplasma technology, APP
claims to offer the optimum solution
for converting municipal solid waste
into clean, local energy. The Swindon
plant, which is essentially a smaller
version of the commercial plants APP
offers, is a test facility built to evaluate
different types of wastes supplied by
clients from various countries to
optimise the Gasplasma process and,
subsequently, the viability of a plant
for that specific location.

A spokesperson for APP said:
“Given the growing interest in the
Gasplasma process and subsequent
increases in steam loads, we needed
to upgrade our Fulton Electropack
EP24 electric steam boiler. As it has
been extremely reliable, and the
larger EP60 model almost tripled our
output to 92g per hour, buying
another Fulton boiler was an easy
decision.”He adds that the footprint
of both models is identical, and with
similar plumbing interfaces also
minimising installation costs, the
decision was made even easier.
