Title: COGENERATION POWER PLANT ON THE BASIS OF BIOFUEL FIRING BOILER
Abstract: Cogeneration is a process of fuel combustion that allows: •·simultaneous production and supply of heat and electric power; •simultaneous solution of challenges associated with power saving and environment protection; •commercialization on the basis of the existing boilers including a bio power fuel firing. The paper presents a survey of the existing heat schemes for cogeneration plants with the fossil types of the hydrocarbon fuel fired therein. An impracticability of using the naturally sustained bio fuels as a heat power source for the similar power plants is illustrated. Thus, an expediency of update of the operated power-and-heat boilers with bio fuel fired as wood chips to ensure generation of both the heat and electric power is underlined. It is noted that for the sake of the target above outlined it would be necessary to have a ceramic air heater built into the bio boiler design, this component being at the same time a part of the electric generator gas turbine engine drive.
