Metal Speciation in Overflow and Leachate from a Thermal Power Plant Ash Pond

In real operation in the thermal power, the ash fields project often cannot be finished following the progress schedule, and this always impact on project running smoothly. In this article some representative delay factors were obtained through the survey and their relationship between themselves were analyzed using PCA method in the SPSS software and their importance of resolving this issue were determined. What is more important, according to this article we can guide our practice and solve our progress delay. It provides us a commanding reference to improve the progress of thermal power plants.

Plant Ash

The advantages and drawbacks of a modern thermal insulating material – cellular glass (foam glass) – and the use of manmade waste (in particular, thermal power plant ash-slag waste) in its synthesis were described. The results of studies into the development of composites and temperature-time synthesis modes of effective energy-saving cellular glass and materials based on it were shown, including the experimental samples of insulating boards and blocks with density of not more than 500 kg/m3; experimental samples of porous granules for lightweight concrete and thermal insulating fillers with density of not more than 250 kg/m3 –. Technology of cellular glass using the Novocherkassk State District Power Plant ash-slag waste was described. The developed technological solutions allow setting physical and mechanical properties of materials based on cellular glass (density, porosity, thermal conductivity, compressive and bending strength) by varying the amount of ash-slag waste in its composition.

Ash Pond

This study evaluated the design and performance of an improved 3.5 MW floating photovoltaic (PV) power generation system consisting of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) members and its installation in the ash pond of a thermal power plant. The FRP design code of the American Society of Civil Engineers was used to design the structure. The safety of the structure was then confirmed using a finite element analysis indicating that the induced stresses were less than the allowable stresses dictated by the Korean Highway Bridge Design Code. An examination of the energy performance of the floating PV energy generation system after installation determined that the measured electricity production was as high as approximately 94% of the installed 3.5-MW capacity. The energy production of the floating PV structure with the improved design and module angles was found to increase by 7.65 times.
