ZOZEN 10 TPH Boiler Industry Cases
Case 1: Food Processing Plant

Zozen WNS10 Steam Boilers for the Food Industry Export to Venezuela
Case introduction:
Recently, ZOZEN Boiler successfully supplied two WNS series gas-fired steam boilers to a large meat processing plant in Venezuela—one 5-ton steam boiler and one 10-ton steam boiler. These boilers are utilized on two separate production lines within the plant, ensuring a stable and efficient supply of steam throughout the production process.
The production and processing of meat products involve multiple stages such as raw material handling, sterilization, steaming, and drying. Each of these stages requires a consistent and reliable steam supply. Stable steam not only enhances the quality of the processed products but also ensures food hygiene and safety. As a result, the performance of the boiler equipment directly impacts the factory’s production efficiency and product quality.
The WNS series gas-fired steam boilers feature a three-pass fire-tube structure with a corrugated furnace and high-efficiency heat transfer tubes. This design significantly improves heat exchange efficiency, achieving a thermal efficiency exceeding 98%. For the meat processing plant, this translates into substantial fuel savings, lower production costs, and reduced carbon emissions—delivering both economic and environmental benefits for the customer.
Both boilers provided by ZOZEN have been certified by ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), which underscores their superior manufacturing quality and operational safety. ASME certification is a globally recognized standard in the boiler equipment industry, and equipment that meets this certification is better equipped to satisfy the stringent requirements of international markets.
Case 2: Chemical Enterprise

ZOZEN Boiler Provides 10 TPH Gas Fired Steam Boiler for Mining Industry
Case introduction:
Yunnan Qujing DeXin Coal Industry Co., Ltd., with an annual production capacity exceeding 10 million tons, serves as a benchmark in regional coal supply and clean transformation. Operating in high-altitude and multi-site scenarios, the company places high demands on the stability of its energy systems and environmental compliance.
Industry Challenges:
Load Fluctuations: Coal washing and drying processes are highly time-sensitive, with frequent starts and stops, leading to unstable steam pressure.
High-Altitude Adaptation: High altitude and low oxygen levels can reduce the efficiency of conventional burners and disrupt emission control.
Environmental and Energy Consumption Concerns: Strict NOx emission standards and gas consumption per unit of steam directly impact operational costs.
The ZOZEN Boiler WNS Series 10 t/h gas-fired steam boiler, equipped with a condenser, economizer, and low-nitrogen burner, maximizes waste heat recovery from flue gas. It utilizes the latent heat released from water vapor condensation in the flue gas to preheat boiler feedwater, reducing exhaust temperature and gas consumption. The boiler ensures stable steam output with ample emission margins. Its large-capacity furnace and sufficient steam storage space enable smoother operation, while the optimized heating surface layout delivers higher thermal efficiency and superior steam quality.
Case 3: Textile Factory

Mauritius Textile Plant with ZOZEN 10-ton Heavy Oil Fire Tube Steam Boiler
Case Introduction:
Located in Mauritius, Denim De L’Ile Limited (often referred to as the DDI Textile Factory) prides itself on producing high-quality textile products with a keen emphasis on sustainability and eco-friendliness.
The Challenge:
A few years back, representatives from DDI had the chance to tour ZOZEN Boiler’s production facility, which gave them an insightful look into ZOZEN’s technical prowess and the superior quality of their offerings. Now, when faced with production challenges, DDI’s thoughts immediately turned back to ZOZEN. In the textile realm, a consistent steam supply is pivotal. Yet, their existing steam system was lagging in efficiency and came with escalating maintenance costs. Consequently, DDI was on the lookout for a steam solution that married efficiency, stability, and environmental consciousness.
ZOZEN’s Solution:
Understanding DDI’s prerequisites, ZOZEN recommended their 10-ton WNS series oil-fired steam boiler, optimized to run on heavy oil. This boiler wasn’t just about high thermal efficiency; its reliable operation made it perfectly aligned with DDI’s round-the-clock, intensive production requirements. In Mauritius, geographical and economic dynamics mean that fuel oils, such as heavy oil, often emerge as a judicious energy pick, further validating DDI’s choice.
To facilitate swift installation and fine-tuning, ZOZEN produced a comprehensive installation guide video. But they didn’t stop there. ZOZEN dispatched a seasoned engineer to oversee on-site debugging for a week, ensuring a hitch-free process from start to finish.
Through these successful projects, ZOZEN has demonstrated its technical capability and reliability in delivering customized 10 tph boiler solutions across multiple industries.
