Advanced Controllers for CFB Boilers
The specific object in this project is the Energy Boiler, with a steam production capacity of 260 t/h at 100 bar. This boiler operates on a combined fuel and circulating fluidized bed, utilizing petroleum coke/coal, gas, and fuel oil as fuels.
The control system overseeing this boiler is the DCS Emerson Ovation system.
Power Plant Performance Calculation
Before the implementation of advanced calculation systems and central long-term archives, power plant personnel were limited in their capacity to manage equipment effectively. They relied on traditional Distributed Control Systems (DCS) like Emerson Ovation and ABB 800xA, as well as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems for production control.
These systems did not provide the capability to monitor the overall efficiency of the plant or individual equipment units comprehensively.
Virtual Power Plant
Integration of 4 photovoltaic power plants, 1 wind power plant, and 1 conventional gas/coal power plant with boilers and steam turbines into a single virtual power plant.
All control algorithms must be implemented in the gas/coal power plant control system, with overall output power balanced by the steam turbine.
