| Description
|
A boiler is a closed vessel in which water or other fluid is heated. The fluid does not necessarily boil. (In North America the term "furnace" is normally used if the purpose is not actually to boil the fluid.) The heated or vaporized fluid exits the boiler for use in various processes or heating applications, including central heating, boiler-based power generation, cooking, and sanitation.
(Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boiler)
Boilers can be fired with biomass (wood chips or pellets, corn cobs, etc.), biogas or biofuel as well as fossil energy resources.
