    Ash Handling System Final

    Uploaded by

    Janmejaya Mishra
    This document provides an overview of ash handling systems at a 500MW power plant. It discusses the sources and composition of ash from coal combustion. Approximately 150 tons of ash are disposed per hour, with 20% collected as bottom ash and 80% as fly ash. Fly ash is collected in electrostatic precipitators and hoppers. The ash is transported via pipes and pumps to form slurry, which is stored in ash ponds consisting of two lagoons with a total capacity of 45 million cubic meters. The document also outlines various uses for fly ash and calls for reducing water usage and increasing dry ash collection and utilization.

    WHAT IS ASH?
    Ash is oxidized form of the mineral matters

    present in coal. Typical ash composition : SiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3, CaO, MgO etc. Coal with more SiO2 & Al2O3, Ash MP > 1400C Coal with more Fe2O3, CaO & MgO, Ash MP < 1100C

    MAKING SLURRY (BOTTOM ASH)


    It is approx. 20% of total ash produced in the

    boiler. Collected in the bottom ash hopper below the boiler, which is filled with water. Bottom Ashing is done once in every 4 hours through clinker grinders and BAHP water. Normally bottom Ashing takes 45 minutes to 01 hour.

    MAKING SLURRY(FLY ASH)


    Eco and eco bypass hopper deashing

    1. Eco and eco bypass hopper deashing is done

    through Ejector system by BAHP water. APH hoppers evacuation 1. Air pre heater hoppers are connected to fly ash evacuation system and are evacuated by vacuum pumps. 2. 05 numbers each are connected to the B and C passes of ESP hopper evacuation line.

    ASH UTILISATION
    Fly ash bricks / blocks Cellular concrete products In manufacture of cement and asbestos products Road construction Embankment/back fills/land development Controlled Low Strength Material (CLSM) In agriculture Mine filling Extraction of Cenospheres

    SUGGESTION
    USE OF WATER TO BE RESTRICTED
    PUMP LEAKAGE TO BE AVOIDED DRY ASH COLLECTION SYSTEM TO BE

    PROMOTED AS MORE AS POSSIBLE MORE UTILIZATION OF DRY ASH ROOT CAUSE ANALYSIS OF TYPICAL PROBLEMS & THEIR MODIFICATIONS IS VERY NECESSARY FOR GETTING BETTER PERFORMANCE.
