Abstract:
Sustainability in power supply chain has been supported by emission reduction of coal-fired power generation and increasing renewable energy power generation. Under the power market reform of direct power purchase transactions, this paper focuses on the channel selection and emission reduction decisions of power supply chain. From the theoretical perspective, this paper develops the decision-making models of centralized and decentralized power supply chain, which consist of one renewable energy power generation enterprise, one coal-fired power plant and one power grid enterprise. The optimal strategies of power quantities and profits for power supply chain members and their corresponding numerical experiments are analyzed in different cases. The results show that there are qA1Nc*<qA1Lc* for renewable energy power generation enterprise A, qB1Nc*>qB1Lc* and eBNc*>eBLc* for coal-fired power plant B, which indicate that the direct power purchase channel in the centralized scenario is conducive to promoting the transaction quantity of renewable energy power generation, as well as the on-grid power quantity and emission reduction efforts of coal-fired power plant B. Furthermore, the profit of whole power supply chain could be enhanced by the increasing on-grid power preference coefficient of coal-fired power generation, subsidy for renewable energy power generation and preference coefficient for clean production, and by the decreasing emission reduction cost coefficient of coal-fired power plant. Additionally, the emission reduction effort of coal-fired power plant is positively relevant with preference coefficient for clean production, whereas it is negatively relevant with power grid wheeling charge, emission reduction cost coefficient and subsidy for renewable energy power generation. Our findings can provide useful managerial insights for policymakers and enterprises in the sustainability of power supply chain.

Abstract:
This study aims to investigate the feasibility of using a feedwater heaters system with coal-fired power plant. Furthermore, the influence evaluation of the different coal consumption on the coal-fired power plants in terms of power output and thermal efficiency improvements. As well, this study focuses on the effect of different feedwater heaters' numbers which caused the highest exergy destruction of the coal-fired power plants. For different values of the coal consumption, a parametric study was conducted to determine the efficiency of the coal-fired power plant. The results show that, when the coal consumption increases the power output will increases too. The slight decreases in the efficiencies are due to the small differences in how the mass flow rates of different streams increase. The exergy destruction was increased by about 16% when the consumption of fuel increases by 40 kg/s. It was observed that operating the coal-fired power plant at high coal consumption leads to reduce the effective ness of the feedwater heaters and increases the power output.

Abstract:
It has been well known that nuclear power plant and coal-fired power plant release some amount of radioactive materials during their normal operations. The purpose of this study was to compare radiation exposure doses to the public as a consequence of airborne effluents released from nuclear and coal-fired power plants under the normal operation. NRCDose3 was used to estimate radiation exposure doses to the public from gaseous effluents of nuclear power plant during its normal operation while CAP88-PC was used to calculate doses to the public living around coal-fired power plant. The results showed that radiation exposure doses from nuclear power plant were less than those from coal-fired power plant and regulatory annual limits. Effective dose by external exposure, skin equivalent dose, and organ equivalent dose from gaseous effluents of nuclear power plant were 2.93 × 10−4 mSv/y, 2.90 × 10−3 mSv/y, and 1.78 × 10−2 mSv/y, respectively. On the contrary, the corresponding effective dose by external exposure, external skin dose, and organ dose from coal-fired power plant were 1.13 × 10−2 mSv/y, 5.33 × 10−2 mSv/y, and 1.17 × 10−1 mSv/y, respectively.

Abstract:
According to the analysis of coal-fired power plants, the article built the evaluation index system of coal-fired power plants energy conservation and emission reduction. Based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP), we determined the weight of each evaluation index. By using the calculation of rating scores in cleaner production, we set up a model of energy conservation and emission reduction for coal-fired power plants. On the basis of the results, the level of coal-fired power plants energy conservation and emission reduction was divided into five levels: excellent, good, medium, pass and fail. Taking a coal-power plant in Heilongjiang Province as an example, we drew a conclusion that the score of energy conservation and emission reduction in the coal-power plant was 89.52 which represents the good level. According to the evaluation result, we proposed corresponding suggestions. The results provide decision-makers with ideas and methods for energy conservation and emission reduction evaluation in the coal-fired power plant.

Abstract:
Coal consumption and CO2 emissions are the major concerns of the 21st century. Solar aided (coal-fired) power generation (SAPG) is paid more and more attention globally, due to the lesser coal rate and initial cost than the original coal-fired power plant and CSP technology respectively. In this paper, the off-design dynamic performance simulation model of a solar aided coal-fired power plant is established. A 330 MW subcritical coal-fired power plant is taken as a case study. On a typical day, three various collector area solar fields are integrated into the coal-fired power plant. By introducing the solar heat, the variations of system performances are analyzed at design load, 75% load, and 50% load. Analyzed parameters with the change of DNI include the thermal oil mass flow rate, the mass flow rate of feed water heated by the solar energy, steam extraction mass flow rate, coal consumption, and the plant thermal efficiency. The research results show that, as DNI increases over a day, the coal saving rate will also increase, the maximum coal saving rate reaches up to 5%, and plant thermal efficiency reaches 40%. It is analyzed that the SAPG system gives the best performance at a lower load and a large aperture area.

A series of alumina ceramics and silicon carbide (SiC) particulate composites were evaluated in terms of their erosive and abrasive wear behaviour under different conditions, with the aim of reducing wear damage in power plants. The alumina ceramics tested ranged in composition from 90% alumina to 97% alumina content. A nitride fired and an oxide fired SiC particulate composites were also tested for comparison. The impact angle, impact velocity, as well as particle size and type were varied for solid-partide erosion, whereas effects of the applied load, abrasive speed and type of abrasive were studied for abrasive wear. The target materials were also evaluated in terms of morphology and mechanical properties including hardness, flexural modulus and flexural strengths. The erosion rates of the tested alumina ceramics increase with an increase in the impact angle, reaching a maximum at 90°. The high purity 96% alumina dry-pressed body has the best erosion resistance at most impact angles, while the 92% alumina dry pressed body has the worst erosion resistance. The erosion rates also increased with an increase in particle impact velocity, resulting in a velocity exponent (n) value of 1.5. A decrease in the erosion rate was observed for both an increase in particle size range and a decrease in erodent partide hardness. At all angles of impact, solid partide erosion of the target materials is dominated by intergranular fracture and surfaces are typically characterized by erosion pits. The five alumina target materials also show a marked increase in erosion rates when the test temperature is increased from ambient to 150°C. The abrasive wear rates for the materials increased with both applied load and abrasive speed, owing to increased tribological stresses at the contacting asperities. There is also a general trend of increasing abrasion resistance with increasing alumina content. Severe wear, characterized by fracture and grain pullout, is the dominant mechanism of material removal during abrasive wear. This was accompanied by the formation of grooves on the wear surfaces. Although this study was successful in terms of material selection for wear damage reduction in power plants, it also highlighted significant factors and modifications that might need to be considered in future studies.

Abstract:

Coal is the most common fossil resource for power production worldwide and generates 40% of the worlds total electricity production. Even though coal is considered a pollutive resource, the great amounts and the increasing power demand leads to extensive use even in new developed power plants. To cover the world's future energy demand and at the same time limit our effect on global warming, coal fired power plants with CO2 capture is probably a necessity. An Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) Power Plant is a utilization of coal which gives incentives for CO2 capture. Coal is partially combusted in a reaction with steam and pure oxygen. The oxygen is produced in an air separation process and the steam is generated in the Power Island. Out of the gasifier comes a mixture of mainly H2 and CO. In a shift reactor the CO and additional steam are converted to CO2 and more H2. Carbon dioxide is separated from the hydrogen in a physical absorption process and compressed for storage. Hydrogen diluted with nitrogen from the air separation process is used as fuel in a combined cycle similar to NGCC. A complete IGCC Power Plant is described in this report. The air separation unit is modeled as a Linde two column process. Ambient air is compressed and cooled to dew point before it is separated into oxygen and nitrogen in a cryogenic distillation process. Out of the island oxygen is at a purity level of 95.6% and the nitrogen has a purity of 99.6%. The production cost of oxygen is 0.238 kWh per kilogram of oxygen delivered at 25°C and 1.4bar. The oxygen is then compressed to a gasification pressure of 42bar. In the gasification unit the oxygen together with steam is used to gasify the coal. On molar basis the coal composition is 73.5% C, 22.8% H2, 3.1% O2, 0.3% N2 and 0.3% S. The gasification temperature is at 1571°C and out of the unit comes syngas consisting of 66.9% CO, 31.1% H2, 1.4% H2O, 0.3% N2, 0.2% H2S and 0.1% CO2. The syngas is cooled and fed to a water gas shift reactor. Here the carbon monoxide is reacted with steam forming carbon dioxide and additional hydrogen. The gas composition of the gas out of the shift reactor is on dry basis 58.2% H2, 39.0% CO2, 2.4% CO, 0.2% N2 and 0.1% H2S. Both the gasification process and shift reactor is exothermal and there is no need of external heating. This leads to an exothermal heat loss, but parts of this heat is recovered. The gasifier has a Cold Gas Efficiency (CGE) of 84.0%. With a partial pressure of CO2 at 15.7 bar the carbon dioxide is easily removed by physical absorption. After separation the solvent is regenerated by expansion and CO2 is pressurized to 110bar to be stored. This process is not modeled, but for the scrubbing part an energy consumption of 0.08kWh per kilogram CO2 removed is assumed. For the compression of CO2, it is calculated with an energy consumption of 0.11kWh per kilogram CO2 removed. Removal of H2S and other pollutive unwanted substances is also removed in the CO2 scrubber. Between the CO2 removal and the combustion chamber is the H2 rich fuel gas is diluted with nitrogen from the air separation unit. This is done to increase the mass flow through the turbine. The amount of nitrogen available is decided by the amount of oxygen produced to the gasification process. Almost all the nitrogen produced may be utilized as diluter except from a few percent used in the coal feeding procedure to the gasifier. The diluted fuel gas has a composition of 50.4% H2, 46.1% N2, 2.1% CO and 1.4% CO2. In the Power Island a combined cycle with a gas turbine able to handle large H2 amounts is used. The use of steam in the gasifier and shift reactor are integrated in the heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) in the steam cycle. The heat removed from the syngas cooler is also recovered in the HRSG. The overall efficiency of the IGCC plant modeled is 36.8%. This includes oxygen and nitrogen production and compression, production of high pressure steam used in the Gasification Island, coal feeding costs, CO2 removal and compression and pressure losses through the processes. Other losses are not implemented and will probably reduce the efficiency.

Tuncel December 2005, 95 Pages In this work, metal pollution in groundwater near by Soma coal-fired power plant was invistigated. Coal combustion results in huge amounts of bottom ash from which metals can originate and migrate to groundwater and pollute it. Forty groundwater samples were collected from water wells in an area near by the power plant to determine 14 metals namely
Na, Ca, K, Mg, Al, Ba, Fe, Zn, Cu, Pb, Cr, Cd, Ni and V. Samples were collected in polyethylene bottles, the pH of the water was measured. Then, the samples were acidified and stored to be analyzed. FAAS, FAES, GFAAS and ICP-AES were used to determine the elements. The results were compared with the WHO, the Turkish and EC guidelines for drinking water quality. Fe concentrations in 12 wells were higher the three guidelines. Zn concentrations in 5 wells were higher than the EC guidelines, but not higher than the Turkish guidelines. Pb concentrations was less than all guilelines but it was relatively high in 8 wells. The other anthropogenic elements were lower than all guidelines but these metals tend to accumulate and they will exceed the guildlines overtime. Enrichment factor calculations showed that the anthropogenic elements were enriched in the regions close to the ash piles pointing out that the ash piles are the main source of these elements. Factor analysis was applied and four main factors of the determined metals were found indicating that the power plant and the ash piles are the main source for the anthropogenic elements.

Abstract:
The fast depletion of fossil fuel has increased the havoc and need of finding an alternative for the existing fossil fuel based energy industry. As a result, many renewable energy sources such as Solar, Wind, Geo Thermal, Bio mass, etc... are being looked in to. One of the major sources of renewable energy is our sun. There are two methods of tapping the energy from the sun. 1. Solar Thermal It involves using the sun’s heat directly in some processes or indirectly to produce electricity. 2. Photo Voltaic It involves using the light to produce electricity using Photo Voltaic cells. This report involves only the Solar Thermal part where the sun’s heat is indirectly used to produce electricity. This report focuses mainly on a method known as Compact Linear Fresnel Reflectors (CLFR). This method involves the focusing of sun’s energy to an over head tube through mirrors arranged to form the shape similar to that of a Fresnel lens and hence the name. Water runs in the over head tube, the focused energy from the sun, heats up the over head tube and produces steam which in turn runs a steam turbine which in turn produces electricity. This report focuses mainly the potential of using CLFR technology to be augmented in to existing coal fired power plants in India. India has a solar reception of 5 Peta watt hours per year with an average of 4 – 7 kW/m2 DNI. One of National Thermal Power Corporation’s Coal fired thermal power station, Dadri Thermal Power Station, has been chosen for the purpose of case study for this particular thesis. Since there is coal shortage at the power plant location and the plant is not able to produce the peak load, our primary objective was to achieve the production of peak load. The existing power cycle and the solar steam augmented power cycles have been simulated using Thermoflow software and the results have been tabulated.

In order to mitigate climate change, there is a desperate need to reduce CO2 emissionsfrom different sources. CO2 capture and sequestration will play an important role in thesereductions. This report is focused on the capture of CO2 from flue gas emitted by a coalfired power plant, which is also described in this report. From the available technologies,post combustion capture with chemical absorption is chosen. It is already been shown byprevious work that it is possible to capture CO2 by this method; this report goes a stepahead to simulate this process. Various methods available are described briefly alongwith the justification why 30% (wt) MEA is used as solvent for this kind of process. Afirst approach is made towards the simulation of the process using Aspen Plus 2006. Themass balance and the energy required for the process have been calculated. Forsimulation the help was taken from Aspen Plus 2006 documentation, also previous workassisted in performing it. The results obtained can be used as the base for optimizing thesimulation.

In the United States approximately 37% of the 4 trillion kWh of electricity is generated annually by combusting coal (USEPA, 2013). The abundance of coal, ease of storage, and transportation makes it affordable at a global scale (Ghose, 2009). However, the flue gas produced by combusting coal affects human health and the environment (USEPA, 2013). To comply with federal regulations coal-fired power plants have been implementing sulfur dioxide scrubbing systems such as flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems (Alvarez-Ayuso et al., 2006). Although FGD systems have proven to reduce atmospheric emissions they create wastewater containing harmful pollutants. Constructed wetlands are increasingly being employed for the removal of these toxic trace elements from FGD wastewater. In this study the effectiveness of using a constructed wetland treatment system was explored as a possible remediation technology to treat FGD wastewater from a coal-fired power plant in Kansas. To simulate constructed wetlands, a continuous flow-through column experiment was conducted with undiluted FGD wastewater and surface sediment from a power plant in Kansas. To optimize the performance of a CWTS the following hypotheses were tested: 1) decreasing the flow rate improves the performance of the treatment wetlands due to an increase in reaction time, 2) the introduction of microbial cultures (inoculum) will increase the retention capacity of the columns since constructed wetlands improve water quality through biological process, 3) the introduction of a labile carbon source will improve the retention capacity of the columns since microorganisms require an electron donor to perform life functions such as cell maintenance and synthesis. Although the FGD wastewater collected possessed a negligible concentration of arsenic, the mobilization of arsenic has been observed in reducing sediments of wetland environments. Therefore, constructed wetlands may also represent an environment where the mobilization of arsenic is possible. This led us to test the following hypothesis: 4) Reducing environments will cause arsenic desorption and dissolution causing the mobilization of arsenic. As far as removal of the constituents of concern (arsenic, selenium, nitrate, and sulfate) in the column experiments, only sulfate removal increased as a result of decreasing the flow rate by half (1/2Q). In addition, sulfate-S exhibited greater removal as a result of adding organic carbon to the FGD solution when compared to the control (at 1/2Q). Moderate selenium removal was observed; over 60% of selenium in the influent was found to accumulate in the soil. By contrast, arsenic concentrations increased in the effluent of the 1/2Q columns, most likely by dissolution and release of sorbed arsenic. When compared to the control (at 1/2Q), arsenic dissolution decreased as a result of adding inoculum to the columns. Dissolved arsenic concentrations in the effluent of columns with FGD solution amended with organic carbon reached 168 mg/L. These results suggest that native Kansas soils placed in a constructed wetland configuration and amended with labile carbon do possess an environment where the mobilization of arsenic is possible.

Abstract:
Type 11 hot corrosion has been identified as a major life limiting factor of gas turbine components in the topping cycle of coal fired combined cycle power plant. Impurities in the coal combustion gases provide the environmental contaminants necessary for type 11 hot corrosion to occur. It is the purpose of the present study to develop corrosion lifting models such that corrosion rates and thus component lives in coal fired combined cycle plant gas turbines may be accurately predicted thus minimising efficiency losses and plant downtime due to corrosion related problems. Type 11 hot corrosion has been shown to follow bi11lodal distributions which cannot be modelled using the well known mathematical models. It has been shown that a probabilistic approach to modelling is appropriate and that the Gumbel Type I extreme value model of maxima can be used to model the maximum extreme corrosion data This is appropriate as it is the maximum extreme corrosion which in life limiting in the plant gas turbine. Basic corrosion data has been generated through a series of laboratory hot corrosion tests designed to simulate the ambient conditions within the plant gas turbine. The variables having most influence on the corrosion process have been identified as ; temperature, thermal cycling, alkali (Na + K) metal sulphate deposition rate, S02 and HCl in the ambient atmosphere. The corrosion models have been developed from this data which accurately predict the type 11 hot corrosion rates observed in the coal fired gas turbine of a combined cycle power plant .

Abstract:
Meeting energy demand while mitigating catastrophic climate change is a serious challenge faced by governments around the globe. The role of coal in the energy mix is integral to this problem: coal is a relatively cheap, flexible and plentiful energy resource; however it is also one of the most polluting. CO2 emissions from coal-fired power plants contribute to global warming. Development and deployment of carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) technology is vital in order to reduce the environmental impact of burning coal. CCS involves capturing and purifying C02 from the emission source and then sequestering it safely and securely to avoid emission to the atmosphere. Oxyfuel combustion, in which the fuel is burnt in a mixture of pure oxygen and recycled flue gas instead of air, is a viable option for CCS from coal-fired power plants. The subject of this discourse is modelling and simulation of oxy-coal combustion. Accurate prediction of the operating characteristics of oxy-coal plants is a vital step towards deployment of the technology. This requires a fundamental understanding of the processes involved and how they might differ from conventional air-firing operation. The distribution of the furnace heat transfer determines the integration between the gas and the water/steam cycles. In order for existing boiler technology to be converted to oxyfuel operation, heat transfer in an oxy-coal furnace should be very similar to air-firing. A combination of fundamental modelling, fluid dynamics, and process simulation have been applied in order to study the impact of oxyfuel combustion on electricity generation. Effectively, nitrogen is replaced with CO2 in the combustion gases and this will affect the gas specific heat capacity, thermal conductivity, diffusivity and absorptivity/emissivity and hence change the rate of convective and radiative heat transfer. The gas-side heat transfer processes are intrinsically linked to chemical reactions and turbulence, and these are accounted for using a CFD model of the furnace. The CFD-generated data are then linked to a full plant simulation in order to investigate the impact of oxyfuel combustion on plant operation. The heat transfer components in the full plant model are developed specifically for detailed prediction of heat transfer and account for changes in composition and mass flow of the flue gases. A range of inlet oxygen concentrations varying from 21-35 vol-% and recycle ratios varying from 80-65% are investigated and the combined simulations reveal a 'working range' of approximately 30-33% inlet oxygen and 72-68% recycle ratio where the distribution of heat transfer is sufficiently similar to allow the plant to operate within the given set- points for air-firing.

Abstract:
With the renewed interest in the construction of coal-fired power plants in the United States, there has also been an increased interest in the methodology used to calculate/determine the overall performance of a coal fired power plant. This methodology is detailed in the ASME PTC 46 (1996) Code, which provides an excellent framework for determining the power output and heat rate of coal fired power plants. Unfortunately, the power industry has been slow to adopt this methodology, in part because of the lack of some details in the Code regarding the planning needed to design a performance test program for the determination of coal fired power plant performance. This paper will expand on the ASME PTC 46 (1996) Code by discussing key concepts that need to be addressed when planning an overall plant performance test of a coal fired power plant. The most difficult aspect of calculating coal fired power plant performance is integrating the calculation of boiler performance with the calculation of turbine cycle performance and other balance of plant aspects. If proper planning of the performance test is not performed, the integration of boiler and turbine data will result in a test result that does not accurately reflect the true performance of the overall plant. This planning must start very early in the development of the test program, and be implemented in all stages of the test program design. This paper will address the necessary planning of the test program, including: • Determination of Actual Plant Performance. • Selection of a Test Goal. • Development of the Basic Correction Algorithm. • Designing a Plant Model. • Development of Correction Curves. • Operation of the Power Plant during the Test. All nomenclature in this paper utilizes the ASME PTC 46 definitions for the calculation and correction of plant performance.

Abstract:
Since 50% of the electric power in the US is generated by pulverized-coal-fired power plants and 95% of the US fossil fuel reserves are coal, immediate action should be taken to improve coal-fired power plant performance. The DOE has started a program to develop most efficient coal-fired power plants with the goal to reach 60% net power plant efficiency. Present coal-fired power plants are mainly designed and built more than 30 years ago with a net power plant efficiency of about 32%. We should not wait for a general application of a future technology with the potential of reaching the 60% net efficiency level of coal-fired power plants. We must take action today and build more advanced pulverized-coal-fired power plants based on a technology, which has already gained operating experience and is commercially available. This paper shows how such power plants can be built as new units or as units replacing outdated units. A power plant net efficiency of 45% can be achieved even with highly effective emission reduction systems already included. The 40% lower specific coal consumption of these plants over present units reduces also the CO2 discharge by the same magnitude. Coal-fired power plants can also be designed for proving high operating flexibility. They can support the grid system in case of grid disturbances and can also stay at idle operation after full-load rejections for immediate reloading. Therefore, blackouts can be avoided. This paper provides detailed information on how to build such advanced pulverized-coal-fired power plants.

Full text
Abstract:
The design of a dual shell or a dual pressure condenser employed in a coal fired plant is different from that in a combined cycle plant. The coal fired plant dual pressure condenser is equipped with feedwater heaters in the condenser neck, extraction piping, an external flash tank and a large number of vents and drains. Dual shell or dual pressure condenser in a combined cycle plant does not include feedwater heaters in the condenser neck and the related extraction piping. There is no external flash tank and the number of vents and drains are minimal. Combined cycle plants have a higher steam flowrate, are required to operate in bypass mode and in certain instances have high make up water flowrate. Apart from the above major differences there are a number of minor differences that must be accounted and addressed when converting a coal fired plant dual shell or dual pressure condenser into a combined cycle plant condenser. This paper highlights the major and minor differences in the design, construction and operation of dual shell or dual pressure condenser operating in a coal fired plants and combined cycle plant. The modifications required to convert the condenser from coal fired application to combined cycle application are discussed. Precautions to be followed in operating the condenser in the new role are addressed.

Abstract:
Coal is a valuable primary energy source that has excellent supply stability and economic efficiency. Japan has extremely low energy self-sufficiency and coal-fired power generation is positioned as an important base load power supply. One urgent issue we face is to find realistic countermeasures that greatly reduce CO2 emissions from coal-fired power plants which produce a large volume of CO2 emissions. Therefore, we have launched the Osaki CoolGen Project since April 2012 as an “Integrated Coal Gasification Fuel Cell Combined Cycle (IGFC) Demonstration Project” subsidized by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (until 2015 FY) and New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (from 2016 FY). This project aims to realize innovative low-carbon coal-fired power generation that combines an IGFC, an extremely efficient coal-fired power generation technology with high-performance CO2 capture technology for the purpose of dramatically reducing CO2 emissions from coal-fired power generation. This project consists of three steps. The first step will implement demonstration tests of the oxygen-blown Integrated coal Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) which is the base technology for IGFC. Toward the start of demonstration testing in March 2017, construction was started in March 2013 and commissioning was started in April 2016. In the second step, we plan to carry out demonstration tests of the oxygen-blown IGCC with CO2 capture equipment. In the third step, we plan to demonstrate an IGFC system combining the demonstration plant of the second step with a fuel cell.
