Abstract In the study of the combustion of samples, it was found that, other things being equal, under the experimental conditions and with the fixed technical characteristics of the fuel, different parameters of the flame are observed, namely, the speed of reaching a stationary mode, the completeness of fuel combustion, the size and distribution of temperature zones strongly depend on the methods used to carry out the mechanical fuel processing. Comparison of the results showed that under the same experimental conditions, the temperature distribution along the length of the experimental stand, in a stationary mode of operation, is higher for the composite fuel. In the case of composite fuel, 70 percent of the fuel burned up was observed at a 1 m section, which is indicative of these fuel consumption and kindling processes at industrial thermal power plants.

Comparison Of The Results

The reliability of thermal and mechanical equipment is largely associated with the introduction of cycle chemistry monitoring systems (CCMS). It is the operation of these systems that helps maintain the main parameters within the standardized ranges in a significantly more reliable manner and decrease the failure rate at power plants. Modern CCMSs use, as input information, the data of automatic chemical monitoring, laboratory chemical control, and thermal process parameters. Unfortunately, the large volume of chemical monitoring performed with the help of laboratory chemical control analyzers is a factor that causes less reliable operation of CCMS. The present study is intended for operating staff and employees of design organizations with the aim to decrease the volume of laboratory chemical control and reduce the sampling points load in terms of sampling flowrate. The possibility of applying indirect algorithms for calculating the most widely used indicators, such as pH and ammonia concentration, based on electrical conductivity measurements of direct and H-cationated samples in automatic chemical monitoring systems is considered. The results of calculation carried out using three algorithms for pH and ammonia concentration for laboratory and field conditions are given. A comparison of the results obtained from using three different methods for calculating the standardized indicators proceeding from experimental data is carried out.

AbstractThe purpose of scientific research in this paper is to improve the operation of thermal power plants. The experimental stand for the study was made for testing, verifying and adjusting the dynamic parameters of the electromechanical actuators that are integrated in the gas valve component. In order to improve the performance of the thermal power plants by increasing the energetic, mechanical, electrical efficiency, this will be achieved through an alternating-alternative static converter, experimentally realizing the single-phase alternating voltage variable module. System optimization is to find new solutions for controlling the linear motion of electromechanical actuators, including the choice of working principles that would become patent proposals, or new research stands.

Ash Disposal

Now-a-days energy planners are aiming to increase the use of renewable energy sources and nuclear to meet the electricity generation. But till now coal-based power plants are the major source of electricity generation. Disadvantages of coal-based thermal power plants is disposal problem of fly ash and pond ash. It was earlier considered as a total waste and environmental hazard thus its use was limited, but now its useful properties have been known as raw material for various application in construction field. Fly ash from the thermal plants is available in large quantities in fine and coarse form. Fine fly ash is used in construction industry in some amount and coarse fly ash is subsequently disposed over land in slurry forms. In India around 180 MT fly is produced and only around 45% of that is being utilized in different sectors. Balance fly ash is being disposed over land. It needs one acre of land for ash disposal to produce 1MW electricity from coal. Fly ash and pond ash utilization helps to reduce the consumption of natural resources. The fly ash became available in coal based thermal power station in the year 1930 in USA. For its gainful utilization, scientist started research activities and in the year 1937, R.E. Davis and his associates at university of California published research details on use of fly ash in cement concrete. This research had laid foundation for its specification, testing & usages. This study reports the potential use of pond-ash and fly-ash as cement in concrete mixes. In this present study of concrete produced using fly ash, pond ash and OPC 53 grade will be carried. An attempt will be made to investigate characteristics of OPC concrete with combined fly ash and pond ash mixed concrete for Compressive Strength test, Split Tensile Strength test, Flexural Strength test and Durability tests. This paper deals with the review of literature for fly-ash and pond-ash as partial replacement of cement in concrete.

Efficiency And Reliability

The article deals with the problem of waste disposal and, accordingly, landfills in the Moscow Region, which have now become the number 1 problem for the environment in Moscow and the Moscow Region. To solve this problem, incineration plants (IP) will be established in the near future. 4 plants will be located in the Moscow Region that will be able to eliminate 2800 thousand tons of waste per year. Burning of waste results in formation of slag making 25% of its volume, which has a very high temperature (1300.1500°C). An arrangement is considered, in which slag is sent to a water bath and heats the water to 50.90°C. This temperature is sufficient to evaporate any low-temperature substance (freons, limiting hydrocarbons, etc.), whereupon the steam of the low-temperature working medium is sent to a turbine, which produces additional electricity. The creation of a low-temperature thermal power plant (TPP) increases the reliability of electricity generation at the IP. The operation of low-temperature TPPs due to the heat of slag is very efficient, their efficiency factor being as high as 40.60%. In addition to the efficiency of TPPs, capital costs for the creation of additional devices at the IP are of great importance. Thermal power plants operating on slag are just such additional devices, so it is necessary to minimize the capital costs of their creation. In addition to equipment for the operation of TPPs, it is necessary to have a working medium in an amount determined by calculations. From the wide variety of working media, which are considered in the article, it is necessary to choose the substance with the lowest cost.

Capital Construction

One of the most important issues for modern domestic power industry is the creation and further widespread introduction of solid propellant energy units for super-critical steam parameters with high efficiency (43–46%) and improved environmental parameters. This will significantly reduce the use of natural gas.At the same time, one of the major drawbacks of the operation of pulverized coal power units is the need to use a significant amount of fuel oil during start-up and shutdown of boilers to stabilize the burning of the coal torch in the variable boiler operating modes.In this regard, solid fuel TPPs need to be provided with fuel oil facilities, with all the associated problems to ensure the performance (heating of fuel oil in winter), reliability and safety. All of the above problems increase both the TPP capital construction costs, and the electricity generating cost.A practical solution to the above problems at present is the use of a plasma technology for coal torch ignition based on thermochemical preparation of fuel for combustion. The materials of the developments of JSC “NPO CKTI” on application of plasmatrons in boilers of thermal power plants at metallurgical complexes of the Russian Federation are also considered.Plasma ignition systems for solid fuels in boilers were developed by Russian specialists and were introduced at a number of coal-fi red power plants in the Russian Federation, Mongolia, North Korea, and Kazakhstan. Plasma ignition of solid fuels is widely used in China for almost 30% of power boilers.The introduction of plasma-energy technologies will improve the energy efficiency of domestic solid-fuel thermal power plants and can be widely implemented in the modernization of boilers.During the construction of new TPPs, the construction of fuel oil facilities can be abandoned altogether, which will reduce the capital costs of the construction of thermal power plants, reduce the construction footprint, and increase the TPP safety.
