✦ Synopsis
09 Combustion (burners, combustion systems) cogeneration application, utilizing high sulfur, low ash Illinois coal. The second boiler is located at Kanoria Chemicals & Industries in Renukoot, India and is designed for 81 MWth output for captive power requirement, firing high ash, low sulfur coal. This boiler was supplied by Thermax B&W Ltd., a joint venture company of B&W and Thermax of India. The choice of CFB technology was based on its fuel flexibility, cost effectiveness and environmental benefits for solid fuels. Based on the broad experience in designing utility and industrial boilers for operation world-wide, B&W has developed a cost effective and compact atmospheric pressure IR-CFB boiler. The B&W IR-CFB boiler design is distinctive in its use of U-beam particle separators.
World-wide, B&W offers IR-CFB boilers up to 175 MWe, both reheat and non-reheat, and is pursuing units up to 350 MWe. This paper reviews the general description of each IR-CFB boiler, design and performance aspects, as well as overall operating experiences. The availabilities of the boiler, including maintenance aspects and emissions data, are also presented.
