Sumitomo+SHI+FW_Logo (main).jpg

In this informative webinar, Kris Matsuo, Director, Sales and Business Development, Asia, Strategic Business Development, Sumitomo FW (SFW), will discuss the technical, economic and environmental benefits of CFB boilers applied to the Asian power market. Plant case studies that illustrate the fuel flexibility of the CFB on fuels commonly available in Asia will be presented, such as:

  • 2,200 MWe Samcheok Green Power Plant in Korea utilizing SFW's most advanced ultra-supercritical CFB technology firing coals and biomass

  • 460 MWe Lagisza Supercritical CFB Plant in Poland

  • 1,000 MWe Mong Dong plant in Vietnam firing high ash Vietnamese anthracite

  • 600 MWe Cleco plant in the USA firing coals and petcokes

  • 510 MWe Soma Kolin plant in Turkey firing Turkish lignite

  • 105 MWe Dangjin plant in Korea firing biomass and demo woods

Below are some of the questions discussed during the webinar:

  • Do you use any thermal metal spray or overlay welding for erosion protection?

  • With 100% biomass firing, what maximum steam temperature can you go up to?

  • What is the typical material used for the CFB boiler tubes, evaporator walls, superheater, and reheater?

  • Is it recommended to use a normal coal CFBC boiler to burn biomass, specifically wood pellets with a 1% chloride level? What are all the design modifications and precautions to be taken?

  • Is it possible to achieve USC and in-furnace de-SOx at the same time?Is it not limited due to a too-high furnace temperature?

  • In terms of using CFB ash, what is the typical ratio of bottom ash to fly ash?
