In a utility boiler, the most heat loss is from the exhaust flue gas. In order to reduce the exhaust flue gas temperature and further boost the plant efficiency, an improved indirect flue gas heat recovery system and an additional economizer system are proposed. The waste heat of flue gas is used for high-pressure condensate regeneration heating. This reduces high pressure steam extraction from steam turbine and more power is generated. The waste heat recovery of flue gas decreases coal consumption. Other approaches for heat recovery of flue gas, direct utilization of flue gas energy and indirect flue gas heat recovery system, are also considered in this work. The proposed systems coupled with a reference 330MWe power plant are simulated using equivalent enthalpy drop method. The results show that the additional economizer scheme has the best performance. When the exhaust flue gas temperature decreases from 153? to 123?, power output increases by 6.37MWe and increment in plant efficiency is about 1.89%. For the improved indirect flue gas heat recovery system, power output increases by 5.68MWe and the increment in plant efficiency is 1.69%.

Based on the heat-transfer principle of air pre-heater, the influence mode of the changes of the air flow, the flue gas flow, the air leakage in different locations, to the temperature of the hot air and the exhausting gas was researched. The problem of a pulverized coal fired boiler, No.2, of a Thermal Power Plant, which the deviation of exhausting flue gas temperature increased to an abnormal extend when the boiler load rise up quickly was analyzed, the fault position and fault reason were located exactly, and the fault was eradicated by equipment maintenance at last. The results of this study have a certain significance to solve similar problems.

At present, the exhaust gas temperature of coal-fired power plants is 125-150℃, and the emission of high-temperature flue gas causes the loss of excess heat and wastes. For this kind of phenomenon, the waste heat recovery system is researched and designed, combined with the combination of a low-temperature economizer in a coal-fired power plant in Dezhou. The heater, through the low-temperature economizer combined with the heater system, reduces coal consumption for power generation, reduces flue gas emissions, while reducing dust specific resistance, improving dust removal efficiency of electric dust removal, and reducing dust emissions. This project responds to national policy guidelines.

This paper presents results on the performance of 10 MW biomass-fired steam power plant. The main objective is to test the performance of the power plant using different type of biomass fuels: bagasse, corn stover, forest residues, and urban wood residues. The biomass fuel was mixed with sub-bituminous coal with fractions of 0–100%. The effect of excess combustion air, flue gas temperature, and the parasitic loads on the power plant performance was investigated. The output results from the heat and mass balance analysis include the monthly and annual electrical power generated, capacity factor (CF), boiler efficiency (BE), thermal efficiency, and gross and net heat rate. The results show a slightly decrease (1.7%) of the annual energy production when the biomass fractions increase from 6% to 100% but a substantial decrease of the CO2 equivalent emissions. A decrease of the excess combustion air from 25% to 5% will increase the boiler and thermal efficiencies and the annual energy output by 2%. This is mainly due to the reduction of the dry flue gas losses (DFGLs) with the reduction of the excess combustion air. A reduction of the parasitic loads from 10% to 2% will increase the power plant performance by 9%. This can be achieved by using more efficient pumps, fans, and conveyors in the power plant. A reduction of the flue gas temperature from 480 °F to 360 °F increases the power plant performance by 4.4% due to the reduction of the dry flue gas losses.

Recovering the waste heat of flue gas to reduce its temperature with avoiding low-temperature corrosion is an effective way to improve the economic efficiency of coal-fired power plant. A coupled high-low energy level flue gas heat recovery system was introduced in the paper. The inlet air temperature of air preheater and the temperature of turbine condensate can be increased by using this system. Thermal economy model of the system was built based on equivalent heat drop method. The system was successfully applied in 1000MW ultra-supercritical double reheat coal-fired unit in Laiwu Power Plant of China Huaneng Group, and the operation data showed the boiler flue gas temperature was not higher than 90° C, and the coal consumption was reduced by using the system.

Selective catalytic reduction (SCR) technology is being increasingly applied for controlling emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) from coal-fired boilers. For many power plants, temperature control becomes an essential challenge to ensure optimal SCR performance and to keep the material integrity of the SCR structure. Progress Energy MAYO Plant has a tandem boiler design with a Gross Power Generation Capacity of 2 × 400 MW. The plant decided to change their coal source to a lower HHV type PRB coal and integrated Clyde Bergemann’s SmartClean technology to deal with the changes in the coal quality and ensure a stable flue gas temperature going into the SCR. The new SmartClean technology optimized the cleaning to control the Economizer Exit Gas Temperature (EEGT) at a desired set temperature. The results of the performance tests showed that the EEGT control was successful and the temperature profile stabilized after implementing the new SmartClean technology. The new technology derives decisions and changes the cleaning strategy based on the effect of the sootblowers on the heat transfer performance rather than the traditional approach of targeting a static cleanliness level in the boiler. The performance data of the closed loop tests are presented as well as the economical justification of the project.

The research presented by the authors in this paper focused on understanding the behavior of mercury during coal combustion and flue gas purification operations. The goal was to determine the flue gas temperature on the mercury emissions limits for the combustion of lignites in the energy sector. The authors examined the process of sorption of mercury from flue gases using fine-grained organic materials. The main objectives of this study were to recommend a low-cost organic adsorbent such as coke dust (CD), corn straw char (CS-400), brominated corn straw char (CS-400-Br), rubber char (RC-600) or granulated rubber char (GRC-600) to efficiently substitute expensive dust-sized activated carbon. The study covered combustion of lignite from a Polish field. The experiment was conducted at temperatures reflecting conditions inside a flue gas purification installation. One of the tested sorbents—tire-derived rubber char that was obtained by pyrolysis—exhibited good potential for Hg0 into Hg2+ oxidation, resulting in enhanced mercury removal from the flue. The char characterization increased elevated bromine content (mercury oxidizing agent) in comparison to the other selected adsorbents. This paper presents the results of laboratory tests of mercury sorption from the flue gases at temperatures of 95, 125, 155 and 185 °C. The average mercury content in Polish lignite was 465 μg·kg−1. The concentration of mercury in flue gases emitted into the atmosphere was 17.8 µg·m−3. The study analyzed five low-cost sorbents with the average achieved efficiency of mercury removal from 18.3% to 96.1% for lignite combustion depending on the flue gas temperature.
