What are steam boilers used for on college and university campuses? When it comes to generating steam to provide heat and hot water for a major educational campus that includes both dormitory complexes and classroom buildings, load demands can vary greatly in a short span of time. Trying to accommodate a fluctuating load demand is best handled with Miura’s modular, rapid-start, step-fired steam boilers.

Read the detailed case studies below for a look at how Miura has played a role in supporting some of the country's most respected educational institutions:

Duke University

Duke University's commitment to sustainability continues with a $25 million renovation of its East Campus Steam Plant, which includes a complete conversion to Miura's energy efficient natural gas boilers. As a result, the school can expect an average annual savings of 20 percent for fuel costs compared to other boiler designs.

 

University of Arkansas & Texas Southern University

With the installation of the six Miura LX-300 steam boilers, the University of Arkansas has reduced their environmental footprint and saved approximately $280,000. Meanwhile, Texas Southern University has dropped its spending on natural gas from $1.2 million annually to a mere $400,000 after installing four gas-fired LX-200 Miura boilers.
