In late 1993, Pennsylvania Electric Company (Penelec) conducted a series of combustion tests on a utility scale boiler at the Seward Power Generating Station located in western Pennsylvania. These tests involved the co-firing of low solids coal water slurry (CWS) with conventional pulverized coal (pc) in Seward`s No. 14 Boiler. The No. 14 Boiler at Seward was manufactured by Babcock & Wilcox in 1950. The steam flow is 330,000 lbs/hr at 700 PSI and 845{degrees}F superheat. There are two B&W Model E-56 pulverizers. Each pulverizer has a capacity of approximately 8-10 tons/hr. There are two levels of three front-fired burners each. The bottom level is the {open_quotes}A{close_quotes} level supplied by the No. 14A Pulverizer. The top level is the {open_quotes}B{close_quotes} level supplied by the No. 14B Pulverizer. The ppc burner capacity is approximately 3 tons/hr. There are six oil guns (one per burner) which are rated Class One and burn No. 2 fuel oil at about 1.25 GPM each.
