Proximate & Ultimate Analysis of Coal A.0. Introduction Coal is an extremely complex material but it is the main fuel for power plants. Hence it becomes necessary to devise acceptable methods for coal analysis in the hope that it would be possible to correlate coal composition and coal properties with coal behavior. B.0. Proximate analysis […]
Introduction: Gas turbine (GT) combined cycle or simple cycle (SC) power plants are very efficient and clean way of power generation. Gas Turbine Combined Cycle Power Plants (CCPP) are the most efficient power plants in the world. Efficiency of GT CCPP is as high as 65% in modern heavy-duty gas turbines. Combined cycle power plant […]
Madhu (Fictitious name, not real name) and I grew up together in our joint family. Madhu is 5 years younger than me. He is my very close and closest relative. But Madhu’s life was very turbulent, which I want to share with you. This is a story from my real-life experience, only name of the […]
The path to success and achievement It Is "Life Transformation Engineering" What makes a fruit World class? Certainly, the breed of the tree producing the fruit. But deep into the creation, it is the quality of the seed which makes the fruit world class, because the tree producing the fruit is World class. However, this […]
In present days, due to more warmer days, ACs (Air Conditioner) are very much a part of life. Without ACs no offices will operate comfortably. In power, chemical, Petrochemical plants and in other manufacturing industries, ACs are playing a crucial role in keeping the surrounding temperature of control systems within permissible limits. ACs also ensure […]
Objective How to avoid “phosphate hide out” in the boiler drum water in power plants. Boiler Drum water treatment In order to maintain the water steam cycle chemistry in power station boilers, a numbers of chemical treatment are adopted. In the power station boilers when the unit is synchronized concentration of minerals increases in the […]
Global Temperature rise is a major issue: The combined land and ocean temperature rise is happening at a rate of average 0.07°C (0.13°F) per decade since 1880. Average rate of increase since 1981 (0.18°C / 0.32°F) is more than twice, can you imagine ? This has profound impact on Sea level rise, extreme weather condition(as seen […]
Introduction Phosphate treatment is adopted in the boiler drum to avoid the scale on the metal surfaces, in power plant boilers, which are operating with medium to high pressure & temperature. It is well known that when the pressure and temperature of boiler drum increases, solubility of dissolved minerals decrease. This phenomenon is the prime […]
Preface The primary purpose of the periodic Major/ Medium overhauls in any power station is to ensure continuous generation of electricity reliably by reducing the ‘Mean Time between Failure (MTBF)” of all major equipment significantly. Major shutdowns in any power company/ production company contributes for a significant part to total planned outage. This procedure is […]
