Design and experience with large-size CFB boilers
- Pyropower Corp., San Diego, CA (United States)
CFB boilers have been in operation for many years in industrial steam and power generation applications demonstrating the low SO{sub x}/NO{sub x} emissions and fuel flexibility of the technology. In the past few years, several large-size CFB boilers (over 100 MWe) have entered service and are operating successfully. On the basis of this experience, CFB boilers up to 400 MWe in size are now being offered with full commercial guarantees. Such large CFB boilers will be of interest to countries with strict emission regulations or the need to reduce emissions, and to countries with both a large need for additional power and low grade indigenous solid fuel. This paper will describe Ahlstrom Pyropower`s scale-up of the AHLSTROM PYROFLOW CFB boiler, experience with large-size CFB boilers and the design features of CFB boilers in the 400 MWe size range.
