Economic Analysis of Waste Heat Utilization for Coal-fired Power Units
Shandong Branch, Huadian Electric Power Research Institute Co., Ltd, Jinan, China
Strict energy conservation policies require power plants to minimize energy consumption as much as possible. Low pressure economizer is an effective method to recycle waste heat from boiler exhaust gas. In this paper, the economic analysis model of coal-fired power plant is established by means of equivalent enthalpy drop method, and the waste heat utilization effect on thermal systems is investigated, including boiler efficiency, steam turbine power output, condensate pump, induced draft fan, electro static precipitator and desulfurization system. Then the economic effect on a 1000 MW ultra super critical unit in Shandong Province is calculated. The results show that waste heat utilization could comprehensively reduce standard coal consumption rate by 1.89 g/(kW·h), and the unit could save about 10.8 thousand tons standard coal and 1.29 billion dollars every year. Besides, the energy saving effect is more significant for lower load condition.
