Is there still a future for 50MW coal-fired pulverized coal boilers?
Thread Content
Now, **every effort is being made to phase out larger units in favor of smaller ones; how many 50MW coal-fired boilers will still be in use after the 11th Five-Year Plan period? How many such boilers are there currently in provinces with a large number of small thermal power plants, such as Shandong and Henan? How many of them will be shut down during the 11th Five-Year Plan period? Does anyone here have the relevant data? Thanks first!
If it’s only for power generation, then it definitely has to be turned off completely; cogeneration is something that needs to be considered.
A 50MW coal-fired boiler, used in factories primarily for heat generation, should be no problem.
The 50MW power generation boiler **is likely to need to be shut down. If it is in a chemical plant, where cogeneration is used, **it should be allowed. Our company’s three major projects in recent times all involve cogeneration, with each generating around 30 MW of electricity; however, the steam output is generally around 1,000 T/h.
