ASME Certified Waste Heat Boiler Successfully Delivered to South Korea for Steel Industry Giants POSCO and Hyundai
As a leading industrial boiler manufacturer in China, Taishan Group proudly completed the delivery of an ASME-certified waste heat boiler system to South Korea. This milestone marks our first successful shipment of steam boilers to the Korean market, setting the stage for long-term cooperation with top-tier steel producers like POSCO and Hyundai Steel.
What is a Waste Heat Boiler?
A waste heat boiler is a high-efficiency energy recovery solution that utilizes the hot flue gas from upstream industrial processes to produce steam. It plays a critical role in energy conservation, thermal efficiency enhancement, and environmental protection. Waste heat boilers are widely used in steel plants, chemical factories, cement manufacturing, and other heavy industries.
Each waste heat boiler must be custom-designed to match the unique flue gas conditions of the facility — including temperature, pressure, flow, and dust content — requiring manufacturers with rich expertise and strong technical capabilities.
Project Overview: Waste Heat Boiler Export to South Korea
In April 2020, Taishan Group received an order from a Korean client for multiple boiler components related to HRSG (Heat Recovery Steam Generator) systems. The order included:
- Four steam drums
- One deaerator
- Two blowdown tanks
- One flue gas duct
These components were manufactured according to ASME standards, ensuring full compliance with international regulations and performance expectations. The final users are none other than POSCO and Hyundai Steel, both of which are globally renowned steel manufacturers.
After nearly five months of meticulous design and precision fabrication, all equipment has been shipped and arrived safely at the project site, ready for installation and commissioning.
