In a water tube boiler, water flows through the tubes and the hot gases
of combustion flow over these tubes. Water-tube boilers are used for
high-pressure boilers
In a fire tube boiler, the hot products of combustion pass through the
tubes surrounded by water.
• The heated water then rises into the steam drum. Here, saturated steam
is drawn off the top of the drum. The steam will reenter the furnace in
through a superheater in order to become superheated. Superheated
steam is used in driving turbines. Since water droplets can severely
damage turbine blades, steam is superheated to 730°F (390°C) or
higher in order to ensure that there is no water entrained in the steam.

• The fluegas laden with flyash is sent through pipes having negatively
charged plates which give the particles a negative charge. The particles
are then routed past positively charged plates, or grounded plates, which
attract the now negatively-charged ash particles.
• The particles stick to the positive plates until they are collected. The air
that leaves the plates is then clean from harmful pollutants.
