24. COAL BASEDCOMBINED CYCLE POWER GENERATION • Offers Plant efficiency over 44% with advanced GT • Has Lower emission of gaseous and solid pollutants • Accept Inferior and varying quality of coals • Lower water requirement • Capability of phased construction and retrofitting

25. IGCC TECHNOLOGY ... • Gasification of coal is the cleanest way of utilization of coal, while combined cycle power generation gives the highest efficiency. • Integration of these two technologies in IGCC power generation offers the benefits of very low emissions and efficiencies of the order of 44-48%. • The comparative indices show that in case of IGCC, emission of particulate, NOx and SOx are: 7.1%, 20% and 16%, respectively, of the corresponding emissions from PC plant.

26. IGCC ... • Environmental performance of IGCC plants far exceeds that of conventional and even supercritical plants. • Three major areas of technology that will contribute to improvements in IGCC are : • hot gas de-sulfurisation • hot gas particulate removal • advanced turbine systems

27. DEVELOPMENTAL GOALS FOR IGCC • To utilize India’s low grade coal for power generation with improved plant efficiency. • To introduce coal gas in Natural Gas based Combined Cycle Plants in a phased manner. • To increase power generation capacity at the level of present emission. • To develop state of Art Technology for Indigenous and Export Markets.

28. IGCC

29. IGCC DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM IN INDIA MAJOR MILE STONES: • Choice of gasification for high ash coals by BHEL • 6.2 MW IGCC demonstration plant established by BHEL both with Moving Bed and Fluidized Bed. • Coal Characterization by BHEL & IICT for gasification application. • Intensive data generated by IICT on oxygen-steam gasification in their Moving Bed gasifier. • Task force CEA, CSIR, NTPC & BHEL constituted to assess technological maturity & Financial requirement for a green field IGCC plant of 100 MW capacity at Dadri (NTPC). • BHEL, CSIR & NTPC prepared proposal for setting up of this 100 MW IGCC demonstration plant.

30. Circulating fluidized Bed Combustion • Circulating Fluidized Bed Combustion (CFBC) technology has selectively been applied in India for firing high sulphur refinery residues, lignite, etc. CFBC Technology is superior to PC Power Plant Technology: • Lower NOx formation and the ability to capture SO2 with limestone injection the furnace.

31. Circulating fluidized Bed Combustion • Good combustion efficiencies comparable to PC Power Plants. • The heat transfer coefficient of the CFB furnace is nearly double that of PC which makes the furnace compact. • Fuel Flexibility: The CFB can handle a wide range of fuels such as inferior coal, washery rejects, lignite, anthracite, petroleum coke and agricultural waste with lower heating.

However, firing in CFB Boiler is still more economical when using high sulfur lignite and low-grade coals and rejects.

34. Renovation & Modernization (R&M) and Life Extension (LE) of old power plants is a cost-effective option as compared to adding up green field plant capacities. • Growing environmental regulations would force many utilities within the country to go for revamping these polluting old power plants using environmentally benign CFBC technology.

35. SUMMERY • Sustainable Power Development calls for adoption of Clean Coal Technologies like Supercritical cycles, IGCC and FBC technologies • Supercritical Power technologies may selectively be used for Pit Head power generation using washed coal

36. SUMMERY • IGCC can revolutionize the power generation scenario in India, once the commercial viability of technology with high ash coals is established at the proposed 100 MW plant. • The success of the project will largely depend on maturity of Fluidized bed gasification technology for high ash Indian Coals. • CFBC technologies are particularly useful for Boiler Emission reduction through revamping of old polluting plants.
