District heating of Kharkhorin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The district heating system of Kharkhorin in Övörkhangai Province, Mongolia provides heating to the city of Kharkhorin, especially during winter months.

Infrastructure

[edit]

With the absence of a centralized district heating system, the district center of Kharkhorin is heated by five private boiler houses, with the company TSTR LLC as the largest one, supplying 42% of the total heat consumed in Kharhorin. All of the boilers are privately owned. It has a total capacity of 6.8 MW with the design heat load of 6.5 MW.[1] The boilers use untreated raw water. The heating season runs 15 September through 15 May.[2]

Fuels

[edit]

All of the boilers of the Kharkhorin district heating system are powered by coal. The coal is transported by trucks to the boiler houses.[2]
