Fuel flexibility and high efficiency
biomass power plants
Antonio Zingales Omar Merlin Kim Kokholm
Background• Security of fuel supply to ensure operational
hours of the power plant.• Reduced fuel price sensitivity in the power plant
business plan.• Improved negotiation basis with fuel suppliers.• Ability to consider higher level of local fuels
from agro-industry (wheat straw, poultry litter, olive husk, rice husk, rice straw etc.)
• Ability to mix “opportunity” fuels into the normal fuel supply to the boiler. Positive impact on OPEX.
KEM solution• Based on more than 20 years proven
operational background.• Wide range of fuel types based on similar
design concept.• Same basic grate technology used for all
plants.• Modifications mainly required at fuel in-feed and
fuel handling in order to expand fuel range. Limited CAPEX impact.
• Boiler design with steam parameters up to 110 bar, 520°C.
Boiler designFinal SH. Platen SH in TP 347
(austenite). High pitch. Designed to foul (no cleaning).
Intermediate convection SH with rectractable soot blowers.
ECO with in-line bare tubes with fixed type soot blower.
APH for sec. Air. Airtube design with high pitch and fixed type
soot blowers.
Firing technologyFiring technology:• Continuous feeding of high and low density fuel.• Equal distribution on grate by controlled mechanical
feeding in full width of grate sections.
Firing technology• Safety gate for isolating the feeding system from the hot
zone (boiler trip).• Frequency control + total mass flow adjustment.• Silo with downwards expanding dimensions/area.
Grate TechnologyGrate technology:• Air cooled mechanical step grate used in many high
and low LHV biomass power plants (wheat straw, olive husk, rice husk, poultry litter, wood chips A+B type, peat…)
• Controlled combustion with constant fuel movement. • Individually controlled combustion zones (drying,
combustion, burn-out).
Grate technologyGrate technology:• Advanced air flow control (distribution to 4 zones,
distribution PA + SA + FGT).• Low C-content in bottom ashes due to long residence
time of embers.• Fuel flexible.
Capacity diagram
• Controllable thermal output with high variation in LHV and boiler load • Automatically adjustable combustion parameters based on steam load
and fuel conditions.• Mass flow feeding system avoiding variations in fuel density.
• Combustion monitoring with feed back to fuel feeding, combustion air system and grate parameters (speed and air zone division).
FGT
SNCR concept:• Up to 3 injection levels according to the Emission
Limits in the Erection Site;• Good effect in Ammonia Slip (Guarantee ≤10mg/Nm3, expected 3÷8mg/Nm3)
• Dedicated PLC for flow rate regulation of each Lance
FGT
FGT concept:• Circular bag filter design with improved security
towards ember collision with the bags.• Dry adsorption for reduction of SO2 and
HCl/TOC.• BAT for straw FGT. In general for high KCl fuel
types (1 year growing).
FGT
• Flat bottom ash extraction. No angled hoppers with reducing area.
• No direct bag impact of ashes due to cyclonic design compared to rectangular designs.
• Well referenced with various biomass types.• Equal temperatures inside the filter casing
reducing cold zones (corrosion).
