stacker

Fuel

Pulverisation Fine powder of coal ,grinded by millers is fed

into furnace by hot air(primary air). Secondary air is fed into furnace to complete

combustion. Amount of primary air depends on load(>3%) High thermal efficiency Better control over load fluctuations Free from clinker and slagging troubles

MILLSA Mill is a mechanical device for the grinding coal upto

desired finenessThere are 6 mills , located adjacent to furnace at ‘0’ M

level

Furnace• Tangential firing-flame envelope rotates ensuring

through mixing within the furnace

• Heat energy is transferred through radiation (80%) and convection(20%).

Furnace

• Heat generating rates of 1.5x 106 kJ/m3/hr can be achieved

• Maximum amount of coal can be achieved with min . space and time

• Through tip(vertical arc) temperature can be varied upto 1000c

• So constant superheat temperature can be maintained

Ash handling plant

• Ash generated is about 30-40%of fuel consumption.

• Must be removed time to time • due to hotness , difficult to handle

Bottom ash removal system• Non combustible residue of combustion of furnace is

bottom ash• Bottom ash falls from furnace to ash sluice trench and discarded to ash pond after mixing with water

Electrostatic precipitator An ESP is a filtration device that removes fine

particles from a flowing gas using the force of an induce electrostatic charge minimally impeding the flow of gases through the unit.

Electrostatic precipitator• Dirt particles are negatively charged

• They are attracted to the positively charged plates and stick there

• From time to time, the collecting plates are shaken to empty away the soot (rapping mechanism)

ESP

• collected in ESP hoppers

• We have 8X8 hoppers

Fly ash removal system

Fly ash removal system• Pneumatically send to silo and then to trucks• Fly ash is used in 1.production of cement clinkers, concrete, ceilings 2.structural fills , agricultural purposes, floor etc

Water treatment plant

Babcock and Wilcox boiler• Boiler is a device for generating steam for power,

processing and heating purposes• Supercritical boiler operates above critical point

Supercritical boiler• steam turbine efficiency improves significantly

compared to the typical subcritical cycle.

• The load change rate capability of the system is not restricted by the turbine

• Steam temperature at the inlet and outlet of the reheater is nearly constant over a wide load range

• The boiler feedwater pump power is significantly reduced at lower loads

• Short startup times

Classification Supercritical boiler

UP

Universal Pressure (UP®) boiler.• The original B&W boiler for supercritical applications was the

Universal Pressure (UP®) boiler. • These boilers, nine of which are in operation, are among the largest

capacity fossil fuel boilers in the world. SPECIFICATIONS• Capacity, steam output: 700,000 lb/h (90 kg/s)• Pressure: Subcritical, usually 1800 to 2400 psi throttle pressure with 5%

overpressure capability. • Superheater and reheater outlet temperatures: 538 to 566C • Fuel:Pulverized coal.

SWUP

Spiral Wound Universal Pressure Boiler

• Designed for both base load and variable pressure load cycling operation as well as on-off cycling operation.

• The unique feature of this boiler, compared to other boilers, is that the tubes in the furnace, from the lower furnace inlet headers to a location near the furnace arch, are wound around the furnace circumference rather than being vertical.

• This design allows the fluid in the tubes to pass through the various heat flux zones around the furnace providing a more uniform outlet enthalpy.

Spiral Wound Universal Pressure Boiler

SPECIFICATIONS• Capacity, steam output: From 2,000,000 lb/h (252 kg/s) to more than

10,000,000 lb/h (1260 kg/s).

• Operating pressure: 3500 psi (24.1 MPa) throttle pressure with 5%

overpressure; higher pressures available.

• Superheater steam temperatures: As required, currently in the 595C range.

• Fuel:Pulverized coal.

Vertical Tube Universal Pressure Boiler

• A once-through boiler, applied to systems with a capacity of 400 MW or larger

SPECIFICATIONS

• Capacity, steam output: 252 kg/s to more than 1260 kg/s. • Operating pressure: 3500 psi throttle pressure with 5% overpressure;

higher pressures available. • Superheater steam temperatures: currently in the 595C range. • Fuel:Pulverized coal.
