  • UNIT-1 THERMAL POWER STATIONS Introduction

    UNIT-1 THERMAL POWER STATIONS Introduction

    UNIT-1 THERMAL POWER STATIONS Introduction ➢ Thermal energy is the major source of power generation in India. More than 60% of electric power is produced by steam plants in India. India has large deposit of coal (about 170 billion tonnes), 5th largest in world. Indian coals are classified as A-G grade coals. ➢ In Steam power plants, the heat of combustion of fossil fuels is utilized by the boilers to raise steam at high pressure and temperature. The steam so produced is used in driving the steam turbines or sometimes steam engines couples to generators and thus in generating electrical energy. ➢ Steam turbines or steam engines used in steam power plants not only act as prime movers but also as drives for auxiliary equipment, such as pumps, stokers fans etc. ➢ Steam power plants may be installed either to generate electrical energy only or generate electrical energy along with generation of steam for industrial purposes such as in paper mills, textile mills, sugar mills and refineries, chemical works, plastic manufacture, food manufacture etc. ➢ The steam for process purposes is extracted from a certain section of turbine and the remaining steam is allowed to expand in the turbine. Alternatively the exhaust steam may be used for process purposes. ➢ Thermal stations can be private industrial plants and central station. Advantages And Disadvantages Of A Thermal Power Plant Advantages: ▪ Less initial cost as compared to other generating stations. ▪ It requires less land as compared to hydro power plant. ▪ The fuel (i.e. coal) is cheaper. ▪ The cost of generation is lesser than that of diesel power plants.

    Environmental, Health, and Safety Guidelines THERMAL POWER PLANTS DRAFT FOR SECOND PUBLIC CONSULTATION—MAY/JUNE 2017 WORLD BANK GROUP Environmental, Health, and Safety Guidelines for Thermal Power Plants Introduction 1. The Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Guidelines are technical reference documents with general and industry-specific examples of Good International Industry Practice (GIIP).1 When one or more members of the World Bank Group are involved in a project, these EHS Guidelines are applied as required by their respective policies and standards. These industry sector EHS guidelines are designed to be used together with the General EHS Guidelines document, which provides guidance to users on common EHS issues potentially applicable to all industry sectors. For complex projects, use of multiple industry-sector guidelines may be necessary. A complete list of industry-sector guidelines can be found at: www.ifc.org/ehsguidelines. 2. The EHS Guidelines contain the performance levels and measures that are generally considered to be achievable in new facilities by existing technology at reasonable costs. Application of the EHS Guidelines to existing facilities may involve the establishment of site-specific targets, based on environmental assessments and/or environmental audits as appropriate, with an appropriate timetable for achieving them. 3. The applicability of the EHS Guidelines should be tailored to the hazards and risks established for each project on the basis of the results of an environmental assessment (EA) in which site-specific variables, such as host country context, assimilative capacity of the environment, and other project factors, are taken into account. The applicability of specific technical recommendations should be based on the professional opinion of qualified and experienced persons.

    POWER STATION SITING and URBAN GROWTH by M. HER TAN* and G.E

    PAPER 11 " POWER STATION SITING AND URBAN GROWTH by M. HER TAN* and G.E. SMITH o 1. SUMMARY The future growth of urban development in Australia, together with a continued search for a higher stand- ard of living and a better quality of life, would depend to a large extent on an increased supply of electricity. It is estimated that by the end of the century, the installed generating capacity in Australia would range between 80,000 and 120,000 MW which would be accommodated on some 50 to 80 large power station sites. The location of future power stations, however, is becoming increasingly more difficult. As the generating capacity installed at one site increases, the siting requirements, safety criteria and environmental considerations are becoming more complex. Furthermore, as the growth in urban development continues, the availability of suitable sites for large power stations with their associated works and various easments is becoming limited. ,- Co-ordinated planning in the use of available resources, together with a better understanding of our environment and technological advances in generation and transmission of electricity, should reduce some of the problems in future power station siting. .. 2. INTRODUCTION The locations of early power plants in Australia and many overseas countries were generally close to the community centres, supplying the energy needs of the small but developing populations. The power plants were small and,widely scattered about the newly formed cities, while the countryside had no electricity at all. With the growth of urban development, continuing rise in energy demand and rapid technological advances in transmission of electricity, the locations of major power stations shifted in increasing numbers from the load centres to the fuel sources.

  • Copy of Ammonia Co-Firing Analysis

    Copy of Ammonia Co-Firing Analysis

    25 March 2021 JERA and Japan seek costly and dirty alternative to RE: Lengthening the lifeline of coal power in Japan Executive Summary ● Japan’s Green Growth Strategy released December 2020 set the pathway for Japan to test co-firing ammonia in coal power plants in 2021 and increase its use from 2030. Jera, a joint venture between Chubu electric and TEPCO, plans to start a pilot programme to use ammonia as a fuel with coal in mixed combustion at its Hekinan thermal power station in central Japan by 2030 and hopes to achieve 20% use of ammonia at all its coal-fired power plants by 2035. ● Ammonia co-firing is in its infancy currently with 20% fuel mix (calorific value) only recently reached. Several issues regarding ammonia combustion exist, including its low flammability, high NOx emission, and low radiation intensity. 100% ammonia-firing is currently unproven on commercial scale. ● This analysis suggests green ammonia will not be able to compete on cost with fossil based ammonia by 2050 without significant policy and regulatory changes. Fossil based ammonia with CCS/CCU, marketed as “blue”ammonia cannot be considered carbon neutral as EOR technology only furthers the use of fossil fuels and the life-cycle of carbon used via utilisation can not be adequately assessed. ● We find that mid-level fuel costs will increase Jera’s thermal coal power plants fuel bill to $2,680 billion per year without CCS (brown ammonia) and $3,034 billion per year with CCS (blue ammonia). An absolute increase of $1,207 billion and $1,561 billion per year respectively.

When dry cooling technology is adopted, the water consuming is same with the coastal nuclear power plant, and the fuel do not increase which is always happed in the thermal power plant cause of the backpressure. The research of the applying dry cooling technology in inland nuclear power plant is urgent with good prospects. This paper focuses on the construction of AP1000 nuclear power in water lacking district inland, analyses the using of indirect dry cooling system, proposes some suggestions for the engineering practice. Keywords: Indirect dry cooling system; Lack of water region; Conventional island; Application. 0 INTRODUCTION According to “Development plan of nuclear power in medium and long term (2005-2020)” approved by the state council, China will adhere to the basic principle of "promote the construction of nuclear power actively" for electric power development, and enhance the construction of 1000MW pressurized water reactor nuclear power generation units. In 2008, national development and reform committee held a meeting on the development of inland nuclear power, and proposed that the third generation (AP1000) of nuclear power technology will be used in inland nuclear plants. The water consumption of inland nuclear power generation units is double of thermal power generation units with re-recycle water cooling system.
