Boiler efficiency = Heat Output / Heat Input i.e.
Steam Enthalpy x Steam Output Fuel Input x Fuel Enthalpy
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 11
Dry flue gas loss : Enthalpy difference between flue gas leaving boiler and ambient air multiplied by dry flue gas quantity
Fuel moisture loss : Heat taken by the fuel moisture to become water vapour
Moisture due to combustion of hydrogen loss : Every unit of hydrogen in fuel produces 9 units of moisture. Heat taken by this moisture to become water vapour
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 12
Contd…..
Air moisture loss : enthalpy difference in moisture brought in by combustion air between flue gas temperature and ambient temperature
Unburnt carbon loss : heat lost due to incomplete combustion of carbon in fuel
Unaccounted losses : small losses which can not be accurately calculated like heat loss in blow down water , heat going with ash , heat loss by radiation from boiler openings etc.
Radiation loss : heat loss from boiler external surface to atmosphere

Mechanical Dust Collector. - Can be single or multi-cyclone. - Dust collection efficiency between 90% to 95%. - Dust separates due to centrifugal action. - Good for large particle sizes. - Draft loss around 75-100 mmwc.
Wet Scrubbers : - Uses moisture to capture dust. - Used in boilers using low ash fuels like bagasse. - Water is an essential pre-requisite. - Draft loss 75 to 100 mmwc. - Converts air pollution to water pollution.

Electro-static precipitators: Ionizes the gases and dust captured on the cathodes Efficiency as high as 99.9% Can capture finer dust Draft loss only 25 mmwc High voltage used as elements to be electrically charged Used for large solid fuel fired boilers and cement plants
Bag filters : Uses cloth as filters Generally used in low erosive dust Efficiency above 99.9% High draft loss 75 to 150 mmwc and hence high ID fan power
consumption Bags needs frequent maintenance and replacement

Stoichiometric air is the quantity of air theoretically required to complete the combustion of fuel.
Practically stoichiometric air quantity is not sufficient to complete the combustion due to fuel particle size and homogeneity of fuel and air is not good.
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 18
Excess air is the quantum of air that is required over and above stoichiometric air quantity to have satisfactory completion of combustion.
Solid fuels require more excess air than liquid fuels.
Liquid fuels require more excess air than gaseous fuels.

Electricity from Municipal Solid Waste
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 31
(MSW) refers to the stream of garbage collected through community sanitation services. Medical wastes from hospitals and items that can be recycled are generally excluded
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 32
MSW consists mainly of renewable resources such as food, paper, and wood products and nonrenewable materials derived from fossil fuels, such as tires and plastics
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 33
Recyclable materials are separated out, and the remaining waste is fed into a combustion chamber to be burned. The heat released from burning the MSW is used to produce steam, which turns a steam turbine to generate electricity
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 34
Burning MSW produces nitrogen oxides and sulfur dioxide as well as trace amounts of toxic pollutants, such as mercury compounds and dioxins. Although MSW power plants do emit carbon dioxide.
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 35
MSW power plants reduce the need for landfill capacity because disposal of MSW ash requires less land area than does unprocessed MSW.

WE CONVERT THE SUGAR MILL INTO A POWER HOUSE
We all are aware that Sugar mill boilers and turbine work during the
sugar season and remain idle during off sugar season which is a long time of 6 – 8 months.
CBL has carried out an experiment at Dhampur Sugar Mills, Dhampur two years back. Where they have converted their 80 TPH 65 Kg/cm2 bagasse fired dumping grate boiler to a Fludised Bed furnace which can burn rice husk, mixture of rice husk and bagasse, saw dust and lower grade coal with as high as 82% efficiency.
The same boiler can be converted back to dumping grate and can work on 100% bagasse as fuel during sugar season and can be re-converted to Fluidised Bed during off season. The conversion time both ways takes 3 – 4 days.
12/11/2015 Cheema Boilers Limited 47
With this upgradation, the 20 MW power plant has worked during
entire year. Thereby, this break through hasl made a way for every
sugar mill to become a power house during off season.
The same organization has awarded CBL the contract for similar
conversions for their 2 mills, i.e., DSM Sugar Mills, Rozagaon and
Asmoli. Hence it is proved that the system is perfect and viable.
The above fact have been studied by “Word Alliance for Deceralised
Energy” in 2004 and have confirmed that upto 25% power demand of
India can be met by Sugar Mills with the above arrangement. Copy of
the report is available.
The schematic diagram for the above system is enclosed.
