Project Status: Under Installation
Project Overview
With the continuous development of the food processing industry in Guatemala, stable and efficient steam supply has become an essential requirement for modern food factories. A food processing company in Guatemala recently selected Dabonn Energy to provide a new 2 ton industrial steam boiler solution to replace its existing aging boiler system.
The customer needed a reliable steam source to support multiple production processes, including food sterilization, food processing, cleaning, and hot water supply. After technical communication and detailed analysis of the factory’s requirements, Dabonn Energy designed a customized steam boiler solution to improve production efficiency, reduce energy consumption, and ensure stable operation.
Currently, the new 2 ton steam boiler is being installed at the customer’s food processing plant in Guatemala.
Customer Requirements
Before this project, the customer was using an old boiler system that had several challenges:
- Increasing maintenance costs due to aging equipment
- Unstable steam output affecting production efficiency
- Higher fuel consumption
- Difficulty meeting the growing steam demand of the factory
- Need for safer and cleaner steam supply for food production
As a food processing enterprise, the customer required a boiler system that could provide continuous and reliable steam for daily production.
1. Stable Steam Supply for Food Processing
Steam is widely used in food production processes, including:
- Cooking and heating
- Food processing
- Production line heating
- Equipment cleaning
The new 2 ton steam boiler can provide sufficient steam capacity to ensure smooth operation of the production line.
2. Food Sterilization Application
Food safety is one of the most important concerns in the food industry.
The steam generated by the boiler will be used for:
- Food sterilization
- Thermal treatment
- Bacteria elimination
- Improving product shelf life
The stable temperature and pressure control of the boiler system help the customer achieve safer and more efficient sterilization processes.
3. Hot Water Supply
Besides steam production, the boiler system also supports the factory’s hot water requirements.
Hot water is used for:
- Raw material cleaning
- Production equipment washing
- Factory sanitation
- Daily industrial processes
This improves the overall energy utilization efficiency of the food factory.

- Lower fuel consumption
- Safe and reliable performance
Industrial Steam Boiler Cost
The cost of an industrial steam boiler depends on several factors, including boiler capacity, fuel type, working pressure, automation level, auxiliary equipment, and installation requirements. For food processing factories, choosing the right boiler type is important to balance the initial investment and long-term operating costs.
For a project like this 2 ton steam boiler installation in Guatemala, the total investment usually includes the boiler body, burner system, control cabinet, water treatment system, feed water equipment, piping system, installation, and commissioning service.
Industrial Gas Steam Boiler Price
An industrial gas steam boiler price is usually higher than traditional fuel boilers because of its advanced combustion technology, automatic control system, and higher environmental performance.
The estimated price range for a gas-fired industrial steam boiler is generally:
- 1-2 ton gas steam boiler: approximately USD 15,000 – 40,000
- 3-6 ton gas steam boiler: approximately USD 30,000 – 80,000
- 10 ton and above gas steam boiler: customized quotation required
Gas steam boilers are widely used in food processing factories because they provide clean combustion, stable steam output, and meet strict hygiene requirements for applications such as food sterilization, heating, and production processing.
Industrial Oil Steam Boiler Price
The industrial oil steam boiler price depends mainly on the boiler capacity, oil burner configuration, fuel consumption requirements, and pressure specifications.
Compared with gas boilers, oil-fired steam boilers usually have a lower initial investment but may have higher operating costs depending on local fuel prices.
- 1-2 ton oil steam boiler: approximately USD 12,000 – 35,000
- 3-6 ton oil steam boiler: approximately USD 25,000 – 70,000
- Larger oil-fired steam boiler systems: customized according to project requirements
Oil-fired steam boilers are suitable for areas where natural gas supply is limited and are commonly used in food factories, textile plants, chemical industries, and other industrial applications.
Industrial Electric Steam Boiler Price
The industrial electric steam boiler price is mainly affected by steam capacity, electric power requirements, automation system, and installation conditions.
- Small electric steam boiler: approximately USD 5,000 – 20,000
- 1-2 ton industrial electric steam boiler: approximately USD 20,000 – 50,000
- Larger electric steam boiler systems: customized based on power availability
Electric steam boilers have advantages such as zero local emissions, simple operation, and low maintenance requirements. They are often selected by small and medium-sized food processing factories, laboratories, pharmaceutical plants, and facilities with strict environmental requirements.
Factors Affecting Industrial Steam Boiler Cost
The final price of an industrial steam boiler project depends on several important factors:
- Steam Capacity: Larger capacity boilers require higher investment.
- Fuel Type: Gas, oil, biomass, and electric boilers have different equipment costs.
- Working Pressure: Higher pressure systems require stronger materials and special designs.
- Automation Level: Automatic control systems improve efficiency and safety.
- Auxiliary Equipment: Water treatment, pumps, tanks, and piping influence the total project cost.
- Installation Requirements: Site conditions and local installation standards affect the final investment.
For food processing companies, the cheapest boiler is not always the best choice. A properly selected steam boiler can provide better energy efficiency, lower maintenance costs, and more reliable production performance over the long term.
Dabonn Energy provides customized industrial steam boiler solutions for food factories worldwide, including boiler selection, system design, manufacturing, installation guidance, and after-sales support.
