biomass co-firing with lignite represents an attractive solution for operating lignite-fired thermalpower plants (tpp) with the dual advantage of using local renewable resources and simultaneously reducingemissions. the subject of this study is technical and environmental investigation of the feasibility of the cofiring of soma lignite with some dried agricultural residues in the soma thermal p...

The Pulverize is a major part of the boiler combustion system and an important part in the system of steam power plant (PLTU). Pulverizer plant serves to break chunks of coal into the coal ash was then fed to the burner. Type of feed coal into a pulverize is cleaned with a value product pulverize optimum 30%. The percentage of this value greatly affects the production of steam in the boiler. Th...

Due to the important role of the boiler-turbine units in industries and electricity generation, it is important to diagnose different types of faults in different parts of boiler-turbine system. Different parts of a boiler-turbine system like the sensor or actuator or plant can be affected by various types of faults. In this paper, the effects of the occurrence of faults on the actuators are in...

The product of corrosion in the feed water system transported into the boiler and gets deposited on the internal surface of waterwall tubes. Proper treatment of boiler feedwater effectively protects against corrosion of feedwater heaters, economizers, and deaerators. It leads to overheating and on-load corrosion and ultimately tube failure.. Heat is transferred through a thin layer of superheat...

This Steam System Survey Guide provides technical information for steam system operational personnel and plant energy managers on some of the major opportunities available to improve the energy efficiency and productivity of industrial steam systems. The guide covers five main areas of investigation: (1) profiling a steam system, (2) identifying steam properties for the steam system, (3) improv...

NOx removal from an actual boiler flue gas was investigated using a commercial ozonizor for indirect NO oxidation and a scrubber using Na2SO3 . The flue gas was in the range of 470~1,480 Nm/h, the gas temperature of 327C, and NOx concentration of 40 ppm. Approximately 80% of NOx removal efficiency was achieved during 180 min of system operation by maintaining pH of 8 and oxidation reduction pot...

Every six months or so the majority of steamdriven ships spend a few days in docks having their boilers scaled and cleaned. In the larger docks there are men who are employed full time in this occupation, but elsewhere and in industry generally the cleaning is more often done as an occasional job. The total number of men engaged in the work full time is not large, but the occupation is a very d...

Wall thinning due to corrosion in utility boiler waterwall tubing is a significant operational concern for boiler operators. Historically, conventional ultrasonics has been used for inspection of these tubes. Unfortunately, ultrasonic inspection is very manpower intense and slow. Therefore, thickness measurements are typically taken over a relatively small percentage of the total boiler wall an...
