ASH HANDLING PLANT

This plant can be divided into 3 sub plants as follows:1) Fuel and Ash Plant. 2) Air and Gas Plant. 3) Ash Disposal and & Dust Collection plant.

Fuel and ash plant

vCoal is used as combustion material in KTPS, In order to get an efficient utilization of coal mills. The Pulverization also increases the overall efficiency and flexibility of boilers. vHowever for light up and with stand static load, oil burners are also used. Ash produced as the result of combustion of coal is connected and removed by ash handling plant. vAsh Handling Plant at KTPS consists of specially designed bottom ash 9/3/12 fly ash in and electro static precipitator economizer and air

Air & Gas Plant

Air from atmosphere is supplied to combustion chamber of boiler through the action of forced draft fan. In KTPS there are two FD fans and three ID fans available for draft system per unit. The air before being supplied to the boiler passes through pre-heater where the flue gases heat it. The pre heating of primary air causes improved and intensified combustion of coal. The flue gases formed due to combustion of coal first passes round the boiler tubes and then it passes through the super heater 9/3/12

Ash Disposal & Dust Collection Plant

KSTPS has dry bottom furnace. Ash Handling Plant consists of especially designed bottom and fly ash system for two path boiler. Two slurry pumps are provided which is common to both units & used to make slurry and further transportation to ash dyke through pipe line. Dry free fly ash is collected in two number of 31 fly ash hoppers which are handled by two independent fly ash system. The ash is removed from fly ash hoppers in dry state is carried to the collecting equipment where it is mixed with water and resulting slurry sump is discharged

For general mankind, today an Eco friendly industry is must. As far as air pollution is concerned now a day various flue gases filter are there in service. The choice depends on the size of suspended particle matter. These filters are E.S.P. Fabric filter high efficiency cyclone separations and stalling room. Fop fly ash, where the particle size vary from 0.75 microns to 100 micron use gradually use E.S.P. to purify the flue gases due to its higher efficiency & low running cost etc. In an ESP the dust lidder gas is passed through an intense electric field, which causes ionization of the gases& they changed into ion while travelling towards opposite charged electrode get deposited as particles and thus dust is electric deposited an

 Now

a day micro-processor based intelligent controllers are used to regulate the power fed to the HVR. The controls the firing / ignition angle of the thyristor connected in parallel mode. Input out waves of the controller and HVR are also shown above, which clearly indicates that average power fed to ESP field can be controlled by variation of the firing angle of thyristor. The output of controller with respect to time is also controlled by microprocessor, so that ESP operation is smooth and efficient. The chars is as shown: As can be seen in the event of spark between electrodes the output of controller is reduced to zero for few millisecond for quenching the spark. Controller also takes place care of fault in KVR and gives a trapping and

BOILER
A boiler (or steam generator) is a closed vessel in which water, under pressure is converted into steam. It is one of the major components of a thermal power plant. A boiler is always designed to absorb maximum amount of heat released in process of combustion. This is transferred to the boiler by all the three modes of heat transfer i.e. conduction. Convection and radiation.

9/3/12

Boilers are classified as

Fire tube boiler B. Water tube Fire tube boiler:boiler In this type the
A.
products of combustion pass through the tubes which are surrounded by water. These are economical for low pressure only. Water tube boiler:In this type of boiler water flows inside the tubes and hot gases flow outside the tubes. These tubes are interconnected to common water channels and to steam outlet. The water tube boilers have many advantages over the fire tube boilers High evaporation capacity due to availability of large heating surface. Better heat transfer to the mass of water. Better efficiency of plant owing to rapid and uniform circulation of water in tubes. Better overall control. Easy removal of scale from inside the tubes.

BOILERS ARE TWO TYPES:-

9/3/12

Furnace
Furnace is primary part of the boiler where the chemical energy available in the fuel is converted into thermal energy by combustion. Furnace is designed for efficient and complete combustion. Major factors that assist for efficient combustion are the temperature inside the furnace and turbulence, which causes rapid mixing of fuel and air. In modern boilers, watercooled furnaces are used. 9/3/12

PULVERISED FUEL SYSTEM

q

The boiler fuel firing system is tangentially firing system in

which the fuel is introduced from wind nozzle located in the four corners inside the boiler
q

The crushed coal from the coal crusher is transferred into

the unit coalbunkers where the coal is stored for feeding into pulverizing mill through rotary feeder the rotary feeders feed the coal to pulverize mill at a definite rate. Then coal burners are employed to fireburning system coal The functional requirement of the fuel the pulverized is to supply a controllable and uninterrupted flammable furnace along with primary air into furnace. input of fuel and air and to continuously ignite and burn 9/3/12 the fuel as rapidly as it is introduced into the furnace

Fuel Oil System

ECONOMIZER
The flue gases coming out of the boiler carry lot of heat. An economiser extracts apart of this heat from the flue gases and uses it for heating the feed water before it enters into the steam drum. The use of economiser results in saving fuel consumption and higher boiler efficiency but needs extra investment.

AIR Air preheaters are employed to recover the heat from the PREHEATERSused to heat the flue gases leaving the economiser and are

incoming air for combustion.

9/3/12

SUPER HEATER
Superheated steam is that steam, which contains more heat than the saturated steam at the same pressure i.e. it, has been heated above the temperature corresponding to its pressure. A superheater is a device which removes the last traces of moisture from the saturated steam leaving the boiler tubes and also increases its temperature above the saturation temperature.

Reheater

Reheaters are provided to raise the temperature of the steam from which part of energy has already been extracted by HP turbine. 9/3/12
