Solid Biomass

What is of crucial importance in local conditions as concerns the heat power industry is the use of local biomass, especially waste biomass, as an energy raw material in the existing system of thermal power plants. The purpose of the present study is to assess the possibility of replacing hard coal as an energy raw material with solid biomass. Solid biomass is constituted by: surpluses of cereal straw and rape straw, as well as hay from unused meadows, from the upkeep of roadside trees and from energy crop plantations. The research was conducted on the example of thermal power plants associated in the “Together Warmer” Cluster. This cluster is formed by 10 thermal power plants in small towns in the Warmińsko-Mazurskie Province and the city of Biała Podlaska (Lubelskie Province). All of these are located in north-east Poland. Considering the high transport costs of biomass, a biomass technical potential was accepted within a radius of 30 km from the thermal power plant. The solid biomass potential for each of the ten thermal power plants demonstrates that most of the thermal power plants from the Cluster under examination are able to meet their energy needs with solid biomass from the nearest neighbourhood (replace hard coal). However, when taking a decision on replacing hard coal with local biomass, it is necessary to adequately handle logistics and replace boilers in thermal power plants with special boilers for the combustion of solid biomass.

Main Motive

All companies are dependent on their raw material providers. The same applies in the case of thermal power plants. The major raw material for a thermal power plant is the coal. There are a lot of companies which in turn provide this coal to the thermal power plant. Some of these companies are international; some are local, whereas the others are localized. The thermal power plants look into all the aspects of the coal providing company, before settling down for a deal. Some people are specifically assigned to the task of managing the supply chain. The main motive is to optimize the whole process and achieve higher efficiency. There are a lot of things which a thermal power plant looks into before finalizing a deal, such as the price, quality of goods, etc. Thus, it is very important for the raw material providers to understand each and every aspect of the demands of the thermal power plant. A combination of three methods—Delphi, SWARA, and modified SWARA—has been applied to a list of factors, which has later been ranked according to the weight and other relevant calculations.

Ceramic Brick

The paper focuses on the production of ceramic brick based on aluminum silicate waste generated by thermal power plants. The grain size and chemical compositions of the raw material are investigated. Experimental studies are carried out to identify optimum operating parameters of the ceramic brick production. It is shown that the use of aluminum silicate waste, namely, 40–60 % ash together with clay raw material allows obtaining ceramic brick possessing 20–25 MPa compressive strength, 10–15 % water absorption, and frost resistance of over 60 cycles.

This article shows the obstacles of using thermal power plant’s ash waste on an industrial scale. The results of determining the activity of fly ash and hydroremoval ash in a mixture with Portland cement are given. Schemes of translation ash from the category of waste with heterogeneous characteristics in the raw material with stable properties are offered. The most rational ways of using ash from thermal power plants in building materials are presented

Ash From Thermal Power Plants as Secondary Raw MaterialThe basic characteristic of thermal power plants in the Republic of Serbia is that they use low-grade brown coal (lignite) as a fuel. Depending on the location of coal mines, lignite may have different properties such as heating value, moisture, and mineral content, resulting in different residue upon combustion. Because of several million tonnes of ash and slag generated every year, their granularmetric particle size distribution, and transport and disposal methods, these plants have a negative impact on the environment. According to the waste classification system in the Republic of Serbia, ash and slag from thermal power plants are classified as hazardous waste, but with an option of usability. The proposed revision of waste legislation in Serbia brings a number of simple and modern solutions. A procedure is introduced which allows for end-of-waste criteria to be set, clarifying the point where waste ceases to be waste, and thereby introducing regulatory relief for recycled products or materials that represent low risk for the environment. The new proposal refocuses waste legislation on the environmental impacts of the generation and management of waste, taking into account the life cycle of resources, and develops new waste prevention programmes. Stakeholders, as well as the general public, should have the opportunity to participate in the drawing up of the programmes, and should have access to them.

Slag Waste

Complex processing of ash and slag from coal-fired thermal power plants attracts a lot of attention. Waste processing will reduce the load on existing storage facilities, to return unburned coal to the boilers of power plants, to obtain a valuable raw material resource for construction, ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy. At all thermal power plants of Ukraine utilization and storage of ash and slag is carried out by hydraulic method. Therefore, for all processing technologies relevant the dehydration of fine-disperse raw material. The article presents the results of laboratory tests of a new device for dehydration of ash and slag waste. It uses a set of influences on raw material: the overlay of vibration oscillations, the electric field and vacuumizing. By the method of pair linear correlations it is obtained that the dependence of moisture on each of the variable parameters has a weak nonlinear character. The exact and approximate multiple regression equations for the practical assessment of moisture under the combined action of all variable factors are obtained. With the size of the raw material + 0.63 – 0.05 mm, it allows to reduce the moisture from 30 to 9 %.

A large amount of waste coming out from industries has posed a great challenge in its disposal and effect on the environment. Particularly fly ash, coming out from thermal power plants, which contains aluminosilicate minerals and creates a lot of environmental problems. In recent years, it has been found that geopolymer may give solutions to waste problems and environmental issues. Geopolymer is an inorganic polymer first introduced by Davidovits. Geopolymer concrete can be considered as an innovative and alternative material to traditional Portland cement concrete. Use of fly ash as a raw material minimizes the waste production of thermal power plants and protects the environment. Geopolymer concretes have high early strength and resistant to an aggressive atmosphere. Methods of preparation and characterization of fly ash-based geopolymers have been presented in this paper. The properties of geopolymer cement/mortar/concrete under different conditions have been highlighted. Fire resistance properties and 3D printing technology have also been discussed.
