Spanish term or phrase: Acuopirotubular
Hello everyone.

I am currently translating a Godd Manufacture Practices manual which included water treatment system details. One of the paragraphs says as follows:

"Se cuenta con un sistema de generación de vapor a través de una caldera ACUOPIROTUBULAR de 500 BHP y utiliza como combustible carbón mineral para producir vapor e inyectarlo en cada uno de los equipos de proceso que lo requieran, para realizar procesos térmicos (calentamiento o cocción) a través de intercambios indirectos de este. "

This is my try:
"There is a steam generating system that uses an ACUOPIROTUBULAR 500 BHP boiler, fueled with mineral coal for steam production and injection in each process equipment that requires it for thermal procedures (heating or cooking), via indirect steam exchanges."

Please let me know what the translation is and feel free to make any corrections if needed. We're all here to help and learn.

TXS a lot and Happy Holidays!

hybrid water-tube/fire-tube boiler


Explanation:
An acuotublar boiler is a water tube boiler, and pirotubular is a fire tube boiler, so I am pretty sure this is describing a hybrid system:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-tube_boiler
"You may consider the Sunrod boiler as a hybrid between fire tube boilers and water tube boilers. The waterwall consists of water tubes, but the Sunrod element is a flue tube with a water-tube inside
