【文章內容簡介】 ious option, the capital cost is high, but risk to boiler operation is minimal. . Indirect or external cofiring Indirect cofiring involves the installation of a pletely separate biomass boiler to produce lowgrade steam for utilization in the coalfired power plant prior to being upgraded, resulting in higher conversion efficiencies. An example of this option is the Avedore Unit 2 project in Copenhagen, Denmark. In Canada, Greenfield Research Inc. has developed a similar CFB boiler design that utilizes a number of units of the existing power plant systems like ID fan etc. to reduce the capital cost. In this system, a subpact circulating fluidized bed boiler is designed specifically to have a piggyback ride on an existing power plant boiler. Since it is not a standalone boiler it does not need many of the equipment or ponent of a separate boiler. This 外文文獻 及譯文 6 unit releases flue gas at relatively high temperature and joins the existing flow stream of the parent coalfired boiler after air heater. Thus, the flue gas from the cofiring unit does not e in contact with any heating elements of the existing boiler, thus avoiding the biomass related fo uling or corrosion problem, which is the largest concern of biomass cofiring. This boiler is totally independent of the parent unit, and as such, any outage in the cofiring unit does not affect the generation of the parent plant. Thus this indirect bustionbased option offers high reliability. The piggyback boiler produces low pressure steam feeding into the process steam header of the power plant. Fig. 1 shows the photograph of one such unit built by Greenfield Research Inc., for a 220MWe Pulverized coalfired boiler in India. In this specific case, the piggyback boiler fired waste fuel from the parent boiler as that was the need of the plant. . Gasification cofiring Cofiring through gasification involves the gasification of solid biomass and bustion of the product fuel gas in the furnace of the coalfired boiler. This approach offers a high degree of fuel flexibility. Since the gas can be injected directly into the furnace for burning, the plant can avoid expensive flue gas cleaning as one would need for syngas or fuel gas for diesel engines. As the enthalpy of the product gas is retained, this results in a very high energy conversion efficiency. If the biomass contains highly corrosive elements like chlorine, alkali etc., a certain amount of gas cleaning may be needed prior to its bustion in the important benefit of injection of gas in the furnace is that it 外文文獻 及譯文 7 serves as a gasover firing designed to minimize NOx. Although less popular, indirect or external and gasification cofiring options have certain advantages, such as the possibility to use a wide range of fuels and easy removal of ash. Despite the significantly higher capital investment requirement, these advantages ma ke these two options more attractive to utility panies in some cases. 3. Current status of biomass cofiring There are a number of cofiring installations worldwide, with approximately a hundred in Europe, 40 in the US and the remainder in Australia and Asia (Fig. 2) [9,13]. Most of these installations employ direct cofiring, mainly because it is the simplest and least cost option. Examples include the 635 MWe EPON Project of Gelderland Power Station in Holland which uses direct cofiring with waste wood and the 150 MWe Studstrup Power Plant, Unit 1, near Aarhus, Denmark cofiring straw. Gasification cofiring is also an attractive option. Three examples of the plants operating on this type of cofiring are: the 137 MWe Zeltweg Power Plant in Styria in Austria, the AMERGAS biomass gasification project at the Amer Power Plant in Geertruidenberg, Holland, and the Kymiarvi power station at Lathi in Finland. The majority of biomass cofiring installations is operated at biomass: coal cofiring ratios of less than 10%, on a heat input basis. The successful operation of these plants shows that cofiring at low ratios does not pose any threat or major problems to the boiler operation. Fig. 2.

Case study methodology The present analysis of cofiring options considers only the economic and emissive effects of cofiring biomass within the plant facility and does not include changes in fuel transportation requirements. In North America, many local sources of biomass are available, and the use of a locally available source of biomass could have benefits beyond those discussed in this paper, in terms of reduced costs and emission generated from transportation of fuel. In areas where the supply of high quality biomass is limited transportation of biomass to the plant would likely be an important part of the economic and environmental costs. The amount of fuel replacement with biomass is generally very low in cofiring because especially in direct firing, the boiler furnace designed for a specific fossil fuel may not respond favorably as there is a major departure in bustion and flame radiation characteristics when some other fuels in used. If cofiring is applied to a fluidized bed boiler, this limit may not be that stringent. The present economic analysis is based on a 150 MW pulverized coal plant located in Eastern Canada. As such, only 10% biomass cofiring rate is considered in all the three different cofiring options examined here. Engineering design of the indirect cofiring system, its capital cost estimation, including fuel requirements for all three options, was carried out through a puterbased analysis.
