SHB Power Plant Engineering

SHB was started in 2007 by three engineers previously together with another company. SHB immediately received an order to upgrade four Bubbling Fluidized Bed boilers in Indonesia that were suffering from boiler tube erosion from sand captured within biomass from the fields. SHB reputation grew and two biomass boilers in Brazil were modified with a proprietary “step-floor” design that improved the efficiency, stable turndown capability, and reduced tube erosion and mechanical problems with grates. SHB developed new combustion systems for improving chemical recovery boilers that substantial reduced the risk around the chemical recovery boilers. The company has developed a proprietary “Hi-Cyclone” furnace technology that improve the 3 T’s of good combustion, Time, Temperature & Turbulence.
