OPTIMIZATION OF CONVENTIONAL THERMAL & IGCC POWER PLANT FOR GREEN MEGA POWER Dr. V K Sethi & J K Chandrashekar Director Adviser Director Adviser University Institute of Technology RGTU Bhopal

AGENDA FOR THE ENERGY GENERATION SECTOR: Increased use of Advanced Fossil Fuel Technology. Promote CCT in countries where coal is main stay fuel for Power Generation. Reduce Atmospheric Pollution from Energy Generating Systems. Enhance productivity through Advanced Fossil Fuel Technology. Adoption of Renewable Energy Technologies in Rural Sector WORLD SUMMIT ON SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

INDIAN POWER SECTOR JOINS TERA CLUB BY 2010 POWER GENERATION BY UTILITIES TODAY 1,47,965 MW … 600 Billion kWh per annum TARGETTED CAPACITY ADDITION BY XI PLAN END Central46,500 MW State & IPP41,800 MW NCES10,700 MW Nuclear6,400 MW Total 105,400 MW BY 2012 WE NEED TO GENERATE ANNULLY … Over 1000 Billion kWh TERA kWh THUS WE WILL BE A TRILLION or TERA kWh (Unit) GENERATING POWER SECTOR BY 2012

Tera-watt Challenge for synergy in Energy & Environment A terawatt Challenge of 2012 for India To give over one billion people in India the minimum Electrical Energy they need by 2012, we need to generate over 0.2 terra watt (oil equivalent to over 3 million barrels of oil per day) and 1 TW by 2040,primarily through Advanced fossil fuel technologies like CCTs for limiting GHG emission levels By 2020 our mix of generation would have the Peak in Thermal, certainly it would be the Green Thermal Power: Thermal326,000MW Renewable & Hydro 104,000 MW Nuclear 20,000 MW Total450,000 MW

POWER SCENARIO IN INDIA Installed capacity in Utilities as on April 07 … 1, 47, 965 MW Thermal Installed Capacity … 93,726 MW (Coal 77,648 MW, Gas 14,876 MW, Diesel 1202 MW + Others- cogen etc.) Hydro Power … 36,877 MW Nuclear Power … 4120 MW Renewable Energy Sources … 13,242 MW Electric Demand …..7-8% growth Peak & Energy Shortage …..16.7% & 12.1% Capacity Addition in 11 th Plan …… 80,020 MW

INDIAN POWER SECTOR - TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE POWER DEVELOPMENT Total Installed Capacity … 1,47,965 MW Thermal Generation … over 66 % Although no GHG reduction targets for India but taken steps through adoption of Renewable Energy Technologies,Combined cycles, Co-generation, Coal beneficiation,Plant Performance optimization Under Kyoto Protocol; Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) conceived to reduce cost of GHG mitigation, while promoting sustainable development as per Framework Convention on Climate change (FCCC)

Optimization of Prime Performance Functions- Heat Rate & Boiler Efficiency Heat Rate – The Heat supplied to Steam in Boiler for producing one kWh MATHEMATICAL MODELING The mathematical models for the plant performance can be divided into two main categories 1. Basic Models: These consist of (a)Steam table model. (b)Combustion model – total approach to combustion of PF. (c)Wet steam expansion model. (d)Boiler heat transfer model for radiation and other unaccountable losses 2. Specific models Boiler accountable losses based on fuel characteristics. Mill operation window. Unburnt Carbon Turbine heat rate. Cylinder efficiency. Condenser performance. Feed heaters. Overall unit heat rate model.

Green Energy Technology Center has been set up to focus on following areas: - Clean Coal Technology & CDM - Bio-fuels and bio-diesel - Renewable Energy devices (hybrid) targeted to produce 1 MW Power for the campus - Energy Conservation & Management - CO 2 Sequestration & CO 2 capture technologies. RGTU INITIATIVES

  Coal is going to remain our main stay in Power Scenario.   A synergy between Energy & Environment is need of the day as over 56% GHG Emission is from Energy Generating Systems, for which: Accelerated growth of Power generation should be coupled with Environmental concern through adoption of Clean Coal Technologies Renewable Energy Technologies need a fillip particularly for Rural Sector Heat Rate Optimization & Energy Conservation measures will go a long way in reducing Demand : Supply Gap   IGCC is going to remain the prime CCT of the third Millennium for Indian Power Sector Summary
