The wood biomass boiler "Bailer Series" is a boiler that uses wood biomass fuel and RPF as fuel. It is a new combustion technology boiler that can reduce various issues such as the increase in waste, emissions of CO2 and dioxins, which are causes of global warming and air pollution, the depletion of fossil fuels, and the rising costs of fuels like heavy oil. The adopted "centrifugal separation space division gasification combustion principle" is a combustion principle that utilizes the airflow within the combustion chamber, allowing solid fuels such as wood biomass and RPF to self-combust solely with air supply. This new combustion principle is patented in major countries around the world. It achieves complete combustion at high temperatures exceeding 1100°C without using auxiliary fuels like heavy oil or kerosene, enabling clean combustion without the need for secondary combustion burners.

A steam boiler is a device that heats water to generate steam, which is used for various applications such as heating, power sources, and industrial processes by utilizing the energy of the steam. Steam boilers are designed to adjust the pressure and temperature of the steam to obtain the necessary energy. They can be widely used in power generation equipment, drying facilities, textile and dyeing industries, as well as heat sources for food processing. Since they are small-scale flow boilers, qualifications such as those for boiler technicians are not required. 【Compatible Fuels】 ■RPF ■RDF ■Wood chips ■Wood pellets ■Construction waste Models are available for steam output of 500 kg/h and 1000 kg/h. *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

A hot water boiler is a device that heats water to generate hot water, which is used for various purposes such as heating and hot water supply. Hot water boilers are generally used for heating and hot water supply in buildings and facilities. By switching the fuel currently used, such as heavy oil or kerosene, to biomass fuel, significant reductions in fuel costs can be achieved. 【Compatible Fuels】 ■RPF ■RDF ■Wood chips ■Wood pellets ■Construction waste They are available in different capacities of 10,000 kcal/h, 100,000 kcal/h, 200,000 kcal/h, and 500,000 kcal/h to suit various applications. *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.

The "Bailer Series" is a boiler that uses wood biomass as fuel. Thanks to its unique combustion principle, it forms a high-temperature thermal core of over 1100 degrees Celsius using only solid fuel, enabling clean combustion without emitting air pollutants, even without the use of secondary burners. The compact combustion chamber (burner) supplies the heat generated from combustion to a highly efficient heat exchanger (boiler), converting it into thermal energy such as hot water, steam, or warm air, which can be utilized for various applications. 【Features】 ■ Reduction in fuel costs ■ Contribution to preventing global warming ■ Formation of a circular economy ■ Creation of local businesses *For more details, please refer to the catalog or feel free to contact us.

The Japanese-made solid fuel boiler "Bailer" can accommodate a variety of fuels and effectively utilize them as thermal energy and electrical energy. Since waste plastic fuel (RPF/RDF) is originally garbage, converting it into fuel helps reduce costs and saves on waste plastic disposal fees. Compared to heavy oil boilers, it can produce the same amount of hot water or steam at about one-fourth the price, depending on the fuel. 【What is RPF?】 A coal substitute fuel primarily made from industrial waste plastics and old paper. 【What is RDF?】 A coal substitute fuel mainly composed of general plastics. In addition to wood chips, it also accommodates a variety of fuels such as RPF, RDF, construction waste, and wood pellets. 【Features】 ■ Cost-effective and capable of providing continuous and stable thermal energy supply ■ High-efficiency provision of steam, hot water, and warm air ■ Effective utilization of thermal energy and electrical energy ■ Compatible with a variety of fuels (such as wood chips and wood pellets) The key point is that since it is originally garbage, converting it into fuel helps reduce costs and saves on waste plastic disposal fees.

The "Bailer Series" is a boiler that widely accommodates solid fuels such as wood pellets, wood chips, and RPF. With the implementation of the new plastic law promoted by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry in April 2022, it is now permissible to burn waste plastics, which were previously disposed of as waste, for thermal utilization. By converting these plastics into fuel and burning them in the Bailer Series, it is possible to reduce both fossil fuel costs and industrial waste disposal costs. The system can be easily operated via a touch panel and supports automatic operation. Thanks to its unique combustion method, ignition is quick, and it can achieve high-temperature combustion of over 1100°C. We offer a "steam boiler" that can be used as a heat source for drying equipment and food processing, as well as a "hot water boiler" suitable for baths and hot water supply in facilities such as bathing and nursing care. ★ We are distributing a "Textbook on Solid Fuel Boilers" that includes product features and examples of cost reduction.

Thermal recycling (heat recovery) refers to the process of incinerating waste materials such as plastic products and recovering and utilizing the heat energy generated during this process. As the environmental impact of plastic waste is becoming a concern, thermal recycling is gaining attention in Japan for its purpose of effectively utilizing energy resources. The waste that is incinerated mainly consists of general and industrial waste, such as waste plastics, paper scraps, and wood scraps, particularly those that are difficult to recycle through conventional plastic recycling methods or are hard to sort. The waste heat recovered through thermal recycling is used for various applications, including power generation within facilities, heating, hot water supply, and heated swimming pools. **Features** - Waste with foreign substances can also be reused. - Reduces the use of fossil fuels. - Contributes to the prolongation of landfills. - Can suppress the generation of methane gas. In line with the concept of thermal recycling, Ikros treats various waste materials, such as wood scraps and waste plastics, as solid fuel and handles biomass boilers that can utilize the generated heat energy for various purposes. *For more details, please download the catalog or contact us.*

As global warming becomes more serious, efforts are being made around the world to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Among the terms that are often heard are "decarbonization" and "carbon neutrality." While these two terms are quite similar, they actually have clear differences. It is important to avoid confusing these terms when engaging in CSR activities. This article will clearly explain the differences between decarbonization and carbon neutrality. *For more details, you can view the related links.

Biomass power generation is a method of electricity generation that is gaining attention as one of the renewable energy sources. It utilizes organic resources that have previously been discarded, such as wood, agricultural residues, and livestock waste, to produce electricity in a stable manner. In particular, its "carbon-neutral" mechanism, which does not significantly increase carbon dioxide emissions, is highly regarded and has become a part of efforts to combat global warming. This article will provide a detailed explanation of the mechanisms, benefits, challenges, and domestic and international case studies of biomass power generation. *For more detailed content, please refer to the related links.
