Power Plant Engineering Product Applications

Power plants are expected to operate 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Downtime and equipment derating (when a generator fails to deliver power at its rated capacity) can cost a power plant thousands of dollars per hour. The cost of replacing failed equipment is also extremely high. Vibration analysis by itself is not enough to anticipate catastrophic failures. Oil analysis is often able to detect problems at a much earlier stage than vibration analysis. This is why more and more power plants are bringing oil ...

In order to assure well-founded decisions in designing profitable solar power plants, the solar irradiance should be measured in the assessment phase. Irradiation is a crucial parameter for site selection and plant design and economics of plant. There are many different ways and technologies to measure the irradiance phenomena that influences the power generation of a future solar power plant. Ammonit’s solutions are designed to meet the latest standards with regard to accuracy and affordability of the ...

Atlas Incinerators often supply incinerators to the Power Plant market where a containerised or skid-mounted solution is required. The customer is typically a major generator manufacturer who has to offer a turn-key power plant to a developing country. In such applications our incinerators are required to run 24/7, 365 days per year, burning sludge oil. Other installations have required that our incinerators operate in remote and often harsh environments such as environmental clean up in Congo or The Royal Danish ...

Those in the power generation industry know how critical a reliable, steady stream of high purity water is. For power generation, water is used in high pressure boilers, turbines and cooling towers. Water treatment for power generation is a vital process that requires a dependable technology. High purity water ensures proper operation of steam generation system and reduces blowdown frequency and use of boiler chemicals. High purity water is also able to better protect against erosion and damage to equipment. ...

Real-time continuous analysis in production of coal. The main problem for power plants is the increased level of ash content and fluctuations in moisture in coal feed to boilers. This leads to a decrease in the calorific value of coal, clogging of the nozzles, and as a result, to a decrease in the generation of electricity and the deterioration of the equipment of the power plant. On the coal mining side, the variations in coal ash content reduce the efficiency of the beneficiation process leading to higher ...

In steam power plants, the thermal energy contained in water vapour is used to power a steam turbine which in turn drives the generator. In the process, conventional fuels such as oil, natural gas, hard coal or brown coal are used to fire the steam boiler. In coal-fired power plants, coal is the only fuel used, whereas waste incineration facilities can also use treated waste in order to generate electricity. ...

In gas-turbine power plants, flammable gases are used to drive turbines. These turbines are in turn connected to generators which actually produce the electricity. In gas and steam combination power plants, the heat generated by the gas turbines is also used to produce steam for the steam turbines. Small gas power plants (socalled combined heat and power plants) use an internal combustion engine instead of a turbine to drive the generator. These combined heat and power plants are frequently used in order to cover ...
