                         Research and development during last 50 years has led to large Steam Generating capacity Boilers having improved design and construction.Today Boilers are more efficient,compact and lighter in weight in comparison to Old time Boilers.

                   Boilers can burn low grade fuels.Super critical pressure Boilers with pressure as high as 350 Atm,temperature 600 degree centigrade and capacity 1,00,000 kg/hr are available now.
