Improving The Efficiency And Performance Of Small Scale Combustion Plant For Increased Export Opportunities: Project Profile
Abstract:
This proposal is concerned with improving the design, efficiency and environmental performance of low-grade coal burning appliances - commonly used in China, India and the former Soviet Union (FSU) - which produce unacceptable environmental pollution mainly in the form of particulate emissions. In the initial draft of the small combustion plant directive limits for particulates are set at 150 mg/m3 for boilers less than 10 MW, and 50 mg/m3 for those between 10-50 MW. These suggested figures raise considerable challenges for industry. Our objectives are therefore:
For new boiler plant the successful particulate and emission reductions would enable coal to be a viable fuel for heating and process applications in the smaller range of boilers. In countries such as India, China and the FSU that currently burn low-grade coal as their primary energy source, the impacts of this work could be essential to its future use.
