Boiler units at Ukrainian thermal power plants need to be modernized or replaced in the short run, as this is important for the national energy security. The authors determined one of possible ways to improve the efficiency indicators of coal-fired boiler units and power generating units as a whole up to the values exceeding the design ones. This variant of improvement consists in abandoning the technology of using flue gas as drying agent in pulverized coal systems and replacing it with direct discharge of the gas flow into the boiler furnace. Numerous computations were carried out to study the change of efficiency indicators and manoeuvrability of power generating units due to the replacement of the ball mill pulverizing system using flue gases for coal drying with the scheme including ball-and-race mills that use hot air as drying agent.

This paper mainly seeks to explore and answer some questions for desulfurization and denitration in thermal power plants in China. Firstly, the desulfurization and denitration technology applicated in the power plant in China at present were analyzed. It is considered that taken combination of the existed technique for purified the pollutants from the thermal power plants, not only lead to the wastage of huge amount of investment, increasing of operating costs, decreasing of the economic benefits, but also add an additional area. It is necessary to develop the integration technology of desulfurization and denitration simultaneously. Secondly the integration technology of desulfurization and denitration at present in China was briefly reviewed such as activated carbon adsorption, SNRB, etc. and most of those at a research stage include the plasma technology. In the third of the paper, the non-thermal plasma technology i.e electron-beam technique, corona discharge and dielectric barrier discharge were discussed. Finally, combined with the actual situation in China, the application prospects of the desulfurization and denitration technology using plasma discharge in the flue gas was bring up. The article also pointed out the barriers need to be overcome if the technology will be applied in power plant, as well as the development direction of desulfurization and denitration technology from flue gas in power plant in China.

The mathematical modeling is performed of the efficiency of flue gas cleaning from fly ash particles of coal-fired thermal power plants, upon installation of a preliminary flue gas cleaning system that consists of a louvered dust concentrator and a battery cyclone, with the recirculation of flue gas from the battery cyclone outlet to the electrostatic precipitator pre-chamber. Based on the available experimental data for the fractional composition of fly ash downstream the boilers of coal-fired TPPs, the size distribution functions were calculated, of fly ash particles at each stage of the preliminary dust-cleaning process, as well as concentrations and modified particle size distributions, to be further used as the input data for designing options and scope of the reconstruction of existing electrostatic precipitators.

Ash and slag materials (ASM), formed during the combustion of coal in thermal power plants, have abrasive properties, which are manifested during the operation of boiler units, ash collection, ash and slag removal. These properties must be considered to ensure durable trouble-free operation of thermal power plants. On the other hand, these properties can be used when planning measures for ash and slag material disposal. The results of experimental-industrial tests of ash and slag materials abrasive properties are presented in this paper. It was shown that, when cleaning metal surfaces of various shapes from old paint coatings, the consumption of crushed coal slag per 1 m2 of the surface being treated is on average 4.8 times less than the consumption of sand, the time of surface treatment with slag is on average 2.45 times less than with the use of sand in similar conditions. The empirical formulas to evaluate the technical and economic efficiency of using ash and slag materials as an abrasive in industrial applications are given.
