Abstract

Boilers are used in many industrial facilities to generate electricity or produce heat, steam and hot water.  Many hazards are occurring on the boiler affecting boiler operation. Within unsafe conditions, boiler hazards might cause explosions, property implosions, injuries and death. This project outlines changes on piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID controller) of boiler pipelines improving smooth operation and boiler efficiency following control requirements of international standards and safety regulations such as National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) to be checked on Boiler Burner Management System and all safety requirements to be developed. Moreover, the project presents the safe arrangement of boiler components in P&ID designs for each part of the boiler to achieve functional safety requirements and comply with the original approach for Burner Management Systems.
