In this paper, an improved system to efficiently utilize the low-temperature waste heat (WHUS) from the flue gas of coal-fired power plants is proposed based on heat cascade. The essence of the proposed system is that the waste heat of exhausted flue gas is not only used to preheat air for assisting coal combustion as usual but also to heat up feedwater and the low-pressure steam extraction. Preheated by both the exhaust flue gas in the boiler island and the low-pressure steam extraction in the turbine island, thereby part of the flue gas heat in the air preheater can be saved and introduced to heat the feedwater and the high-temperature condensed water. Consequently, part of the high-pressure steam is saved for further expansion in the steam turbine, which obtains additional net power output. Based on the design data of a typical 1000 MW ultra-supercritical coal-fired power plant in China, in-depth analysis of the energy-saving characteristics of the optimized WHUS and the conventional WHUS is conducted. When the optimized WHUS is adopted in a typical 1000 MW unit, net power output increases by 19.51 MW, exergy efficiency improves to 45.46%, and net annual revenue reaches 4.741 million USD. In terms of the conventional WHUS, these aforementioned performance parameters are only 5.83 MW, 44.80% and 1.244 million USD, respectively. The research of this paper can provide a feasible energy-saving option for coal-fired power plants.

Waste Heat Recovery System

At present, the exhaust gas temperature of coal-fired power plants is 125-150℃, and the emission of high-temperature flue gas causes the loss of excess heat and wastes. For this kind of phenomenon, the waste heat recovery system is researched and designed, combined with the combination of a low-temperature economizer in a coal-fired power plant in Dezhou. The heater, through the low-temperature economizer combined with the heater system, reduces coal consumption for power generation, reduces flue gas emissions, while reducing dust specific resistance, improving dust removal efficiency of electric dust removal, and reducing dust emissions. This project responds to national policy guidelines.

SO3 is one of the main precursors of atmospheric PM2.5, and its emission has attracted more and more attention in the industry. This paper briefly analyzes the harm of SO3 and the method of controlled condensation to test SO3. The effect of cooperative removal of SO3 by ultra-low emission technology in some coal-fired power plants has been tested by using the method of controlled condensation. The results show that the cooperative removal of SO3 by ultra-low emission technology in coal-fired power plants is effective. The removal rate of SO3 by low-low temperature electrostatic precipitators and electrostatic-fabric integrated precipitators can be exceeded 80%, while the removal rate of SO3 by wet flue gas desulfurization equipment displays lower than the above two facilities, and the wet electrostatic precipitator shows a better removal effect on SO3. With the use of ultra-low emission technology in coal-fired power plants, the SO3 emission concentration of the tail chimney reaches less than 1 mg / Nm3.

Energy Saving Potential

Lignite is a domestic strategic reserve of low rank coals in many countries for its abundant resource and competitive price. Combustion for power generation is still an important approach to its utilization. However, the high moisture content always results in low efficiencies of lignite-direct-fired power plants. Lignite pre-drying is thus proposed as an effective method to improve the energy efficiency. The present work focuses on the flue gas pre-dried lignite-fired power system (FPLPS), which is integrated with fan mill pulverizing system and waste heat recovery. The thermo-economic analysis model was developed to predict its energy saving potential at design conditions. The pre-drying upgrade factor was defined to express the coupling of pre-drying system with boiler system and the efficiency improvement effect. The energy saving potential of the FPLPS, when applied in a 600 MW supercritical power unit, was determined to be 1.48 %-pts. It was concluded that the improvement of boiler efficiency mainly resulted from the lowered boiler exhaust temperature after firing pre-dried low moisture content lignite and the lowered dryer exhaust gas temperature after pre-heating the boiler air supply.

Compared with limestone-based wet flue gas desulfurization (WFGD), magnesia-based WFGD has many advantages, but it is not popular in China, due to the lack of good wastewater treatment schemes. This paper proposes the wastewater treatment scheme of selling magnesium sulfate concentrate, and makes thermal and economic analysis for different concentration systems in the scheme. Comparisons of different concentration systems for 300 MW power plant were made to determine which system is the best. The results show that the parallel-feed benchmark system is better than the forward-feed benchmark system, and the parallel-feed optimization system with the 7-process is better than other parallel-feed optimization systems. Analyses of the parallel-feed optimization system with 7-process were made in 300, 600, and 1000 MW power plants. The results show that the annual profit of concentration system for a 300, 600, and 1000 MW power plant is about 2.58 million, 5.35 million, and 7.89 million Chinese Yuan (CNY), respectively. In different concentration systems of the scheme for selling magnesium sulfate concentrate, the parallel-feed optimization system with the 7-process has the best performance. The scheme can make a good profit in 300, 600, and 1000 MW power plants, and it is very helpful for promoting magnesia-based WFGD in China.

The organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is an established thermodynamic process that converts waste heat to electric energy. Due to the wide range of organic working fluids available the fluid selection adds an additional degree-of-freedom to the early design phase of an ORC process. Despite thermodynamic aspects such as the temperature level of the heat source, other technical, economic, and safety aspects have to be considered. For the fluid selection process in this paper, 22 criteria were identified in six main categories while distinguishing between elimination (EC) and tolerance criteria (TC). For an ORC design, the suggested method follows a practical engineering approach and can be used as a structured way to limit the number of interesting working fluids before starting a detailed performance analysis of the most promising candidates. For the first time, the selection process is applied to a two-stage reference cycle, which uses the waste heat of a large reciprocating engine for cogeneration power plants. It consists of a high temperature (HT) and a low temperature (LT) cycle in which the condensation heat of the HT cycle provides the heat input of the LT cycle. After the fluid selection process, the detailed thermodynamic cycle design is carried out with a thermodynamic design tool that also includes a database for organic working fluids. The investigated ORC cycle shows a net thermal efficiency of about 17.4% in the HT cycle with toluene as the working fluid and 6.2% in LT cycle with isobutane as the working fluid. The electric efficiency of the cogeneration plant increases from 40.4% to 46.97% with the both stages of the two-stage ORC in operation.

A 215MW cogeneration B&W670/13.7-M type high-pressure natural circulation boilers, the exhaust gas temperature is set as 143 °C, while in the actual operation, the average exhaust gas temperature is 155 °C, and when the unit is running at full capacity in summer the highest exhaust gas temperature is 169.6 °C. In order to satisfy the normal operating temperature of bag filter in summer peak load, and recover low temperature waste heat of fule gas, low temperature economizer is added to the thermal system. Therefore, low-temperature economizers are respectively added in four flues which are between the outlet of the air preheater and the entrance of the bag filter, this will achieve the purpose of reducing flue gas temperature by transferring heat between condensate and flue gas, ensuring the units safe operating and improving the overall operating performance of the boiler.
