Coal reburning for cyclone boiler NO sub x control demonstration

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5385030
This quarterly report has been prepared for Phase 1, Phase 2A, and Phase 2B of the Coal Reburning for Cyclone Boiler NO{sub x} Control Demonstration Project. The period covered by the quarterly report is January through March 1991. This report represents the fourth three-month period of the project. The subject of this report identifies progress during the quarter for Phase 1 -- Design and Permitting and Phase 2A -- Long Lead-Time Item Procurement, and Phase 2B -- Construction and Start-up. Under Phase 1, the following activities will be discussed. Task 1 -- Management and Reporting included completing the Preliminary Design Report. The Numerical and Physical Flow Modeling first draft report has been issued. The Baseline Characterization Report is due for completion in April 1991. Task 5 -- Design of the Reburn System, system drawings continue to be updated and revised. General engineering activities continue with emphasis on system controls and electrical design. Finally, Task 6 -- Permitting activities continue concentrating on Phase 2B items. Under Phase 2A -- Long Lead-Time Procurement, the flame scanner seal air fan, flame scanners, and the reburn system air monitors have been purchased. Phase 2B -- Construction and Start-up, involved completion of the foundation/substructure in March 1991, and spring outage activities, which included asbestos abatement and size reduction of the existing flue gas duct were completed. The reburn system design involves input from all the project's tasks and thus, this document assembles a summary of the tasks performed to date with the culmination being the proposed reburn system design.
