The environmental requirements

CFB BOILER PRINCIPLE

Relatively low combustion temperature

typically < 900°C

Uniform temperature distribution

Limited formation of thermal NOx

In-situ SOx capture by addition of

limestone to combustion chamber (no

need for external FGD)

Very good fuel –air mixing conditions

Thermal inertia on circulating bed is not

sensitive for fuel quality change

ESIMATED CO2 REDUCTION FOR RSA COAL

■ Higher Efficiency due to larger Boiler

and higher Steam Parameters (up to

USC)

■ Dilution of Biomass Alkaline Content

by Coal Ash, less Risk of Fouling

■ Sufficient Ash from Coal, no Sand

Addition required

■ S/Cl ratio >4, no Risk of Cl Corrosion

■ Reduced Ash Discharge

■ Less Limestone Consumption (Lower

CFB BOILER AVAILABILITY

Reference Data 2 x 175 MWe Lignite fired CFB

The availability data includes scheduled & un-scheduled outages

Total availability average from 1992 – 2015 is 91,5 %

SUMMARY

Supercritical and Ultra Supercritical

CFB technology is proven and available.

Flexibility in fuel quality allows not only

use of low quality coals but also

addition of biomass

SC and USC steam parameters allow

to reduce CO2 footprint of the plant.

Inherently low NOx emission and

simple SO2 removal decrease

environmental pollution.

VERTICAL TUBE DESIGN

High water flow rates lead to high dynamic

losses

When extra heat is applied to a tube or group

of tubes, the overall pressure drop increases

significantly.

The flows in the affected tubes have to fall to

match the overall circuit pressure drop.

Circuits designed with low water flow rates are

dominated by static pressure drops

When extra heat is applied the static pressure

drop and overall pressure drop fall.

The flows in the affected tubes have to

increase to match the overall circuit pressure

drop. (= positive flow response)
