Advanced CFB for clean and efficient coal power

Objective

To fulfil the needs of development of the Once Through Supercritical (OTSC) Circulating Fluidised Bed (CFB) technology comprehensive understanding of CFB combustion processes must be achieved. This promotes boiler designers to meet the requirements of utility boilers to secure boiler performance and reliability at OTSC operation. In particular, more distinct understanding of combustion behaviour in OTSC CFB application during multi-fuel operation is needed to meet the additional requirements of the boiler control algorithms.

The strategic importance and attractiveness of the OTSC CFB design is based on capability on multi-fuel operation that makes it possible to decrease CO2 emissions remarkably compared to current designs down to level of 500 - 600kg CO2/ MWhel, depending on the degree of fuel substitution. The important aim of the proposed work is also to promote scale-up of the design of an OT CFB plant up to 600MWe size.
