Waste Heat Power Generation in Cement Plant

Objective

The strategic overall objective of the project is to develop a Waste Heat Recovery system for Power Generation in Cement plants. Waste Heat Recovery system (WHRS) will be based on ORC process, primarily attached to the cement production plant clinker cooler with definitive purpose to produce electrical energy from Low Temperature Waste Heat sources, as clinker exhaust heat is. Specific technological challenge for this project is to develop a Waste Energy Recovery Boiler (WERB) that will be able to operate efficiently in the highly demanding and aggressive conditions of clinker cooler exhaust gases area. High dust content and abrasiveness of clinker exhaust gas presents very demanding environment for reliable WERB operation. Integration of developed WERB system in existing Clinker Cooler process line and interface with ORC 1.5MWe plant in overall WHRS unit is next technology challenge. During the time span of this project following innovative solutions will be developed and implemented: • Waste Energy Recovery Boiler WERB pipes protective coating development • (WERB) design and optimization • Advanced Control And Guidance System • Integration and Optimization of WHRS Cement plant system
