The ICAVI Vibrating Grate combustion system was developed to provide greater operational stability, thermal efficiency, and flexibility in the use of different biomass fuels. Its operation is based on a vibrating mechanism that promotes the continuous and uniform movement of fuel across the grate, ensuring better fuel distribution during combustion and maximizing energy utilization. The fuel bed is supported by a water-cooled finned tube wall, similar to the boiler furnace, providing high thermal resistance and increased operational safety. The vibrating motion is transmitted to the grate through a mechanical assembly consisting of an eccentric shaft and a rigid connecting bar, allowing vibration frequency and intensity to be adjusted according to fuel characteristics. The air distribution system is designed with independent chambers beneath the grate, ensuring proper combustion control across different bed zones and improving thermal efficiency. One of the main advantages of the ICAVI Vibrating Grate is the uniform distribution of fuel over the grate, significantly reducing ash sintering formation and contributing to greater operational stability, reduced maintenance requirements, and improved combustion performance. This technology is recommended for applications requiring high operational flexibility and the use of biomass fuels with varying physical characteristics and moisture content.
