rising from the generating circuits and enters into the steam turbines. Consumed water can be
made up by the demineralized water from demineralizer at circulation process.
3.2.1
Boiler
Boilers are pressure vessels designed to produce high pressure steam in which water under
pressure is transformed into steam by the application of heat. In the boiler furnace, the
chemical energy in the fuel is converted into heat, and it is the function of the boiler to transfer
this heat to the contained water in the most efficient manner.
A boiler to absorb the maximum amount of heat released in the process of combustion. This
heat is transferred to the boiler water through radiation, conduction and convection.
The rubber wood fuel is transferred into the combustion system by biomass feeding. From the
combustion system the hot gasses pass through the boiler and super heater for heat energy
transfer.
Steam is fed form the collecting steam drum to the steam turbine generator. The turbine turns
a generator through a reduction gear set. Exhaust steam is condensed and routed through the
boiler feed water systems and then pumped to the economizer.
Refer to Technical Specification for Rubber Wood Fired Boiler.
3.2.2
Main Steam System
From the boilers, the main steam with the main steam supply will go through the main steam
pipe and the main steam stop valve, and the governor main valve before entering the steam
turbine.
In order to achieve convenient normal operation and emergency start and stop there is a main
steam bypass system and piping. When the pressure exceeds the settling value of the main
steam governor valve, it will automatically open partly and the excessive steam can directly
enter into the main condenser, to keep the pressure of turbine inlet constantly. After the Desuperheater the steam pipe is connected to the condenser.

Steam Admission
The HP steam enters the HP turbine by one HP Steam inlet line. At the inlet of the steam
turbine a main stream stop valve is installed to interrupt the steam supply in case of a steam
turbine trip.
3.2.5
Steam Turbine Sealing Steam System
For sealing purposes of the steam turbine, HP steam from the common HP steam line is
supplied to the steam turbine glands during start-up/shut-down. During low load operation the
sealing steam is supplied by the steam turbine bleed (extraction) steam system. The sealing
steam is controlled at a slight over-pressure by a pressure reducing control valve. The vacuum
side of the steam turbine glands is kept at a pressure below atmospheric by one (1) 100%
ejector steam condenser. The gland steam is condensed in the ejector steam condenser by
the main condensate water and the drain is fed to condenser hot well.
3.2.6
Steam Turbine Ejector System
The vacuum in the condenser is being established and maintained by the ejector steam
system. The initial vacuum is being established by the startup ejector. After initial vacuum the
normal ejector will take over and will establish the operational vacuum pressure.
3.2.7
Steam Turbine Condenser
The condenser is horizontally arranged water cooled surface type to transfer heat from ST
Exhaust steam to the cooling water to condensate the steam coming out of the steam turbine.
Also steam turbine bypass valves lines are connected to exhaust transmission duct between
ST exhaust and condenser to condense the steam in the condenser during start up, shutdown
and emergency case. A condenser LP flash box to collect ST starting drains is installed. A
condensate water recirculation pipe to keep minimum flow rate through the condensate
extraction pumps is connected to the condenser.
A demin water make-up line is connected to the condenser hot well to make up for the losses
of the water/steam cycle. These losses consist of start-up losses, Boiler blowdown losses or
export steam condensate return losses in case the export steam condensate is off
specification.

Water Steam Cycle/Balance Of Plant
3.3.1
Steam Bypass System
Rev
Page No.
14 of 24
A steam turbine bypass system is incorporated in the design to maximize operation and start
up flexibility of the plant. The proposed capacity of the turbine bypass valve is 60% of the main
steam flow at the boilers maximum continuous rating. The bypass system will be operated in
the following cases:
-
Start-up and shutdown after vacuum has been established in the steam turbine
condenser.
To prevent boiler tripping, when the steam turbine trips.
High pressure at the inlet of the steam turbine in the steam lines.
Each individual bypass system consists of a steam stop valve, a pressure reducing station and
spray water control valve and spray station (integrated in the pressure control valve).
Downstream of the spray station a temperature transmitter is installed to alarm in case of
malfunction of the spray station. The water for the spray station is taken from the main
condensate line, immediately downstream of the condensate pumps.
3.3.2
Startup Vent Valves
When the power plant is started from cold conditions no vacuum can be established in the
system turbine condenser. In order to assure steam flow through the Boiler systems and
prevent overheating of the boiler tubes, a HP start up vent valve is installed in the HP steam
lines. The start-up vent valves will be used during initial warm up and these valves will control
the pressurization of the Boiler HP systems until the steam turbine condenser has established
vacuum and the bypass stations have been released for control. When the bypass stations
have been released for control, the start-up vent vales will be closed and the bypass station
takes over the pressurization of the boiler systems.
3.4
Water Treatment And Water Supply System
The overall objective of boiler feed water treatment is generally to reduce the hardness, the
silica or the total dissolved salts concentration in the feed water. Because the processes that
achieve this, (for example ion exchange) can themselves be fouled by some raw water

contaminants, it is normally also necessary to pre-treat the raw water before it enters the boiler
feed water treatment system. Typically, the treatment processes are required to remove the
following types of contaminants:
The water treatment plant consists of pre-treatment and a demineralization plant to treat raw
water to the quality required by the boiler.
Raw water first flows into conventional clarifiers. The clarified water will be stored in a clarified
water tank and will be used as process water and feed to the demineralization plant. For the
production of demineralization water, the clarified water will be pumped to a sand filter for
removal of residual suspended solids and to the granular activated carbon filter for removal of
organic constituents.
Dissolved solids are removed by the demineralization plant. Demineralization plant consists of
cationic and anionic exchangers. Demineralized water is further polished by mixed bed
exchangers before been stored in the demineralized water storage tank. The consumers of the
demin water are:
-The condenser for cycle make-up.
-Deaerator.
-Boiler chemical dosing skid.
-Closed cooling water head tank for CCW system.
-Laboratory and regen water by demineralized water pumps.
The regular consumer is the condenser make up system where the steam cycle losses adding
demin water to the condenser. Other consumers are minor.
3.4.1
Raw Water Supply
Raw water is drawn from the river situated from the plant.
2x100% raw water intake pumps are provided to extract the water from the river to a raw water
pond via a pipeline. The raw water is pumped into clarifier from the raw water pond. Raw water
is used for firefighting. Fire water pumps discharge raw water to the firewater ring main.
3.4.2
Service Water System
A service water distribution system is provided in the Plant. Water from the raw water pretreatment plant is used for service water. The output of the pre-treatment plant is stored in the

service water tank 2 x 100% Service water pumps supply service water for washing and
cleaning purposes in the plant. 2 x 100% Make-up water pumps supply make-up water to the
cooling tower.
3.4.3
Potable Water System
A potable water system is provided to supply water for drinking and eye wash showers. The
principal methods of disinfection are irradiation by ultra-violet light. Ultraviolet (UV) light kills
micro-organisms by short-wave light that destroys their molecular structure.
3.4.4
Condensate System
The turbine exhaust steam flows to a shell and tube condenser vessel where heat is rejected
via cooling water flowing through the tubes. Condensing steam collects in the bottom of the
condenser vessel the hotwell. The Condenser hotwell forms a reservoir for the condensate
extraction pumps. Various flows from the steam and water circuit (e.g. gland steam, turbine
drains, CEP min flow, etc) are returned to the condenser to conserve heat and prevent water
leakage from the system. No condenser tube cleaning system is proposed as the cooling
water is clarified river water and is chemically dosed to prevent biological growth and scaling.
Condensate is pumped from the Condenser to the Deaerator by 2 x 100% Condensate
Extraction Pumps, via a Gland Steam Condenser and Low Pressure Heater. The LP Heater is
a shell and tube heat exchanger which obtains steam from the steam turbine. The condensate
from the LP Heater is drained to the Condenser. The gland steam condenser is a shell and
tube heat exchanger which collects and condenses the gland steam from the turbine seals.
A vacuum skid extracts air from the condenser during start-up, and helps to maintain
condenser vacuum during operation. The vacuum in the condenser is established and
maintained by the steam ejectors.
3.4.5
Feedwater System
Condensate from LP Heater flows to a Deaerator.
3.4.6
Feedwater Deaeration
The system consists of a feedwater deaerator and feedwater tank. It has the following tasks:

POWER PLANT
DOC TITLE

Buffer tank for compensating the relatively short-time mass flow fluctuations between
feed water demand and condensate return flow (start-up of the plant or steam turbine
trip, process condensate losses),
Deaeration of the returned condensate and make-up feedwater, i.e. expulsion of
entrapped oxygen and other non-condensable gases,
Feedwater heating.
The water level in the deaerator is automatically regulated by the plant control system.
The design uses sprays of steam and bubbles of steam in the water to extend the steam water
interface and achieve the necessary steam/water contact. Steam is supplied from the turbine
bleed while condensate is supplied from the steam turbine condenser via the LP feedwater
heaters.
3.4.7
Feedwater Pumps
The feedwater pump extracts the deaerated feedwater from the feedwater storage tank and
feeds it to the economiser. A minimum flow device is provided to ensure a minimum flow
through the pump under conditions of minimum or no-flow of feedwater to the boiler.
The drum level of the boiler is kept at a constant value by the feedwater control valve ahead of
the boiler inlet by three-element control.
The multi-stage boiler feed pumps (2 x 100%) complete with leak-off valves, gauges, guards
and couplings will be supplied. Each pump will be provided with a constant speed electric
drive. The pumps are of horizontal, multistage, segment casing design held together by high
tensile tie-bolts.
3.4.8
Blowdown
Boiler water quality is maintained by operation of the continuous and intermittent blowdown
valves. A Blowdown Vessel is provided to receive continuous blowdown. Also, all boiler drains
are connected to blow down tank.
3.5
Flue Gas Cleaning System - Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP)
Electrostatic Precipitators are proposed for fly ash extraction. The gases enter the ESP
horizontally via the inlet, where the gas velocity is evened out over the whole ESP section by
means of a gas distribution system. The ID fan is installed after the ESP.

On the application of high current, the dust particles are separated on the collecting plate
when passing through the inter electrode spacings.
Both the electrode and the discharge electrode system are cleaned by mechanical, electricmotor driven rapping devices and thus kept clean. By means of these periodically operating
rapping devices, which are freely programmable for each field with regard to operating and
interval time, the dust is hence loosened due to the shearing forces and falls into the hopper.
3.6
Ash And Dust Handling System
Handling of ash is basically divided into wet bottom ash, dry fly ash. Bottom ash is the material
that is collected beneath the furnace or combustion chamber while fly ash is typically fine dry
ash particles that are suspended in the flue gas and collected at various points downstream of
combustion flue gas path.
The furnace ash handling is a wet system while ash and dust from the economiser/airheater
and emission control is handled by a dry system. Furnace bottom ash falls into the waste
water pit bottom onto a water submerged conveyor that continuously discharges the ash form
the furnace.
A submerged conveyor in circulating water is used to:
-
Keep conveyor surfaces cool
Provide an air-tight seal in the furnace that protects the furnace from air infiltration
Extinguish any burning or glowing combustion residues
Lower the temperature of wet ash for convenient disposal external to the boiler
Whilst the dust from the air heater, economiser and ESPs is chain or belt conveyed to an ash
storage silo for disposal by a truck.
3.7
Chemical Storage and Dosing Systems
3.7.1
Boiler Chemical Dosing
One high pressure chemical dosing unit is included, for the intermittent injection of scale
inhibitor chemical to the steam drum, and two low pressure pumps for dosing oxygen

scavenger and ammonia. The dosing system includes pumps, mixing tank (or bulky bins),
agitator, instruments and associated valves.
3.8
Cooling Tower Chemical Dosing
The dosing system for the circulating water consists of hypochlorate dosing for preventing
biological growth and Acid pH Control.
3.9
Compressed Air System
The compressed air system comprises of an instrument air system and service air system.
2x100% capacity compressors (1 x duty, 1 x standby) supply air to one air receivers operating
in parallel, sized for a five minutes uninterrupted supply of instrument air.
Compressed air from the air receivers passes through two sets of coarse filters meeting the
required service air quality. A common air header from the air receivers supplies air to both the
instrument air header and the service air header.
Service air is taken directly from the common air header with an actuated isolation valve to
isolate the service air header from the instrument air header in event of pressure drop or
fluctuation.
Instrument air only is then passed through the refrigerant type air dryer and two sets of
secondary (fine) filters to remove any condensed liquids, particulates and oil vapours to
ensure air provided is of instrument air quality.
3.10
Cooling Water Systems
3.10.1
Main Cooling Water Systems
The cooling water system is delivering the cooling water to turbine condenser to cool down the
exhaust steam into condensate water, the system is a closed circuit system, the cold water
from goes to the condenser, after cooling process the water is going back to the cooling tower
after temperature rise, where the temperature of the hot water is cooled down to certain level
for continuing the process. Cooling tower water source is taking from raw water pre-treatment
system.
An induced-draught mechanical wet cooling tower system transfers the waste heat of the
water-steam cycle to the atmosphere. The cooling tower consists of two (2) separate cells.

manually controlled by the operators at operator workstations in the Central Control Room
(CCR).
All open loop and closed loop control systems or process control stations are based on
distributed digital control with built-in redundancy and interconnected via a redundant high
speed bus system(s).
A redundancy provides for the process and/or instrumentation is considered in DCS to further
improve overall system availability.
The single failure criteria are applied. This means that a single failure in any part of the DCS is
not lead to a trip of a plant main component, e.g. GT or ST or Generator, etc. or the plant itself.
Closed loop and open loop controls, as well as protective interlocks of all Power Plant
equipment is implemented in the Distributed Control System (DCS) and in the specific
packaged plant control system.
Exhaust stack emissions are monitored through EPA/CARB certified continuous emissions
monitoring system (CEMS). Emissions monitored include: Sulfur dioxide (SO2), Oxides of
Nitrogen (NOx), Oxygen (O2), Carbon Monoxide (CO), Carbon dioxide (CO2), opacity and
Particulates.

Plant Control Concept
The plant control concept is based on the following:

-
Overall Distributed Control System DCS for the whole power producing process
including its sub-systems.
Microprocessor based DCS.
Maximum safety for personnel and equipment.
Safe, reliable, and efficient operation under all conditions.
Very high availability.
Highest degree of automation, including total plant start-up, shutdown.
Providing all data required for operation, maintenance, and performance optimization.
Hierarchical structure of the controls.
Start-up and shut-down of the plant in automatic sequence (unit controller). The unit
controller allows an automatic start-up/shut-down of the plant by means of sequencers.
The sequencer monitor all of "permissive to start parameters" to allow the plant startup. These "ready for start-up conditions" include appropriate feedbacks yielded with
some manual operations executed locally and with equipment in service to permit its
automatic start-up. Some mode selections made on VDU screens prior to plant start-up
(i.e. automatic or parallel with electric grid, cold or warm start-up, etc.) to activate the
type of start-up sequence (manual, semi-auto with operator consents to proceed or
