Book Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle  IGCC  Technologies

Download or read book Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle IGCC Technologies written by Ting Wang and published by Woodhead Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-26 with total page 929 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) Technologies discusses this innovative power generation technology that combines modern coal gasification technology with both gas turbine and steam turbine power generation, an important emerging technology which has the potential to significantly improve the efficiencies and emissions of coal power plants. The advantages of this technology over conventional pulverized coal power plants include fuel flexibility, greater efficiencies, and very low pollutant emissions. The book reviews the current status and future developments of key technologies involved in IGCC plants and how they can be integrated to maximize efficiency and reduce the cost of electricity generation in a carbon-constrained world. The first part of this book introduces the principles of IGCC systems and the fuel types for use in IGCC systems. The second part covers syngas production within IGCC systems. The third part looks at syngas cleaning, the separation of CO2 and hydrogen enrichment, with final sections describing the gas turbine combined cycle and presenting several case studies of existing IGCC plants. - Provides an in-depth, multi-contributor overview of integrated gasification combined cycle technologies - Reviews the current status and future developments of key technologies involved in IGCC plants - Provides several case studies of existing IGCC plants around the world

Book Evaluation of a Pressurized fluidized Bed Combustion  PFBC  Combined Cycle Power Plant Conceptual Design

Download or read book Evaluation of a Pressurized fluidized Bed Combustion PFBC Combined Cycle Power Plant Conceptual Design written by Donald A. Huber and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Conclusions drawn from the studies performed during this reporting period are as follows: The PFB/AFB combined cycle commercial plant investigated will have a capital cost of $567/kw and a cost of electricity of 28.47 mils/kw-hr based on mid-1977 costs. Based on a trade-off study performed during this reporting period, it is concluded that the use of field assembled PFB combustors will be more economical than using shop assembled and rail-shipped units. Due to the reduced size of shop assembled combustors, the number of units used must be increased by a factor of five. A technical and economic comparison of various systems proposed for removal of PFB particulates from the gas entering the gas turbine indicates that two Aerodyne two-stage cyclones in series may be more appropriate for this application than systems based on either Ducon's Granular Bed Filter or Donaldson's Tan-Jet cyclones. However, further development effort is required to confirm the performance of these units and to establish the maximum permissible loading entering a gas turbine. With reasonable care in operations and the use of commercially available control methods, fugitive dust emissions from coal and sorbent handling and storage systems and solid waste disposal systems can be minimized. Water borne pollutants from coal pile runoff and leachates from waste disposal areas require additional study and special handling to insure that ground water contamination does not occur.

Book Performance and Operational Economics Estimates for a Coal Gasification Combined Cycle Cogeneration Powerplant

Download or read book Performance and Operational Economics Estimates for a Coal Gasification Combined Cycle Cogeneration Powerplant written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A performance and operational economics analysis is presented for an integrated-gasifier, combined-cycle (IGCC) system to meet the steam and baseload electrical requirements. The effect of time variations in steam and electrial requirements is included. The amount and timing of electricity purchases from sales to the electric utility are determined. The resulting expenses for purchased electricity and revenues from electricity sales are estimated by using an assumed utility rate structure model. Cogeneration results for a range of potential IGCC cogeneration system sizes are compared with the fuel consumption and costs of natural gas and electricity to meet requirements without cogeneration. The results indicate that an IGCC cogeneration system could save about 10 percent of the total fuel energy presently required to supply steam and electrical requirements without cogeneration. Also for the assumed future fuel and electricity prices, an annual operating cost savings of 21 percent to 26 percent could be achieved with such a cogeneration system. An analysis of the effects of electricity price, fuel price, and system availability indicates that the IGCC cogeneration system has a good potential for economical operation over a wide range in these assumptions.

Book excerpt: Conversion of Coal-Fired Power Plant to Cogeneration and Combined-Cycle presents the methodology, calculation procedures and tools used to support enterprise planning for adapting power stations to cogeneration and combined-cycle forms. The authors analyze the optimum selection of the structure of heat exchangers in a 370 MW power block, the structure of heat recovery steam generators and gas turbines. Conversion of Coal-Fired Power Plant to Cogeneration and Combined-Cycle also addresses the problems of converting existing power plants to dual-fuel gas-steam combined-cycle technologies coupled with parallel systems. Conversion of Coal-Fired Power Plant to Cogeneration and Combined-Cycle is an informative monograph written for researchers, postgraduate students and policy makers in power engineering.
