A student technical seminar on the use of condensing economisers used in thermal power industry and the need to increase their use for lesser carbon footprint.
ABSTRACT
Heat/light/electrical energy is out today’s necessity and has scarcity also. Energy conservation is key requirement of any industry at all times.
In general, industries use heat energy for conservation of raw material to finished product. The source of heat energy is generally saturated or super heated steam. The steam generation is common use one boiler with carity of fuels. Whatever may be the fuel the generation should be as economy as possible which adds to the product cost. Further the usage of steam and recycling steam condensate back to boiler is an art depending on plant layouts.
In this project the steam generator is water tube boiler fired with rice husk. The steam is transferred to the tyre/tube moulds where tyres/tubes are cured while the heat is rejected to the tyres the condensate forms and this condensate is put back to the boiler. While doing so the steam is also stopped back to boiler without rejecting complete heat to the product. This gets flashed into atmosphere at feed water tank. The science of separation of condensate from steam saves energy. Better the separation more the fuel conservation.
In the steam generator the fuel is burnt to heat the water and form steam. This fuel burnt flue gas carries lot of energy, out through chimney. Prior to exhausting through the heat left in flue need to be recovered, through heat recovery mechanisms’. In this project an air-preheater condensate heat recovery unit is the major energy consuming station.
Classification, Advantages and applications, Commercially viable
waste heat recovery devices, Saving potential.
Waste heat is heat, which is generated in a process by way of fuel combustion or chemical
reaction, and then “dumped” into the environment even though it could still be reused for some
useful and economic purpose. The essential quality of heat is not the amount but rather its
“value”. The strategy of how to recover this heat depends in part on the temperature of the waste
heat gases and the economics involved.
Steam distribution system, utilization and designAzmir Latif Beg
n any steam plant or any process plant effectiveness of steam distribution system is dependent upon the project specific conditions like location and layout of the process plant and its steam consuming equipment like heat exchangers, decorators etc. Steam distribution circuit is one of the major link between the steam production point and the point of end use i.e. process plant. Primary steam generating source are co-generation plant and Steam generators. However it not the source of steam generation but the effective and efficient steam distribution system that decides right quality (pressure and temperature) and quantity of steam to reach to the process through it. Thus designing of steam distribution is to be given due importance along with installation and subsequently maintenance during operation.
The presentation is for the engineers of HIRA POWER PLANT,. The complete calculations for calculation of boiler efficiency are described in the presentation

Design &Analysis of Waste Heat Recovery System for Domestic RefrigeratorIJMER
Heat is energy, so energy saving is one of the key matters from view point of fuel consumption
and for the protection of global environment. So it is necessary that a significant and concrete effort should
be made for conserving energy through waste heat recovery too. The main objective of this paper is to study
“Waste Heat recovery system for domestic refrigerator”. An attempt has been made to utilize waste heat
from condenser of refrigerator. This heat can be used for number of domestic and industrial purposes. In
minimum constructional, maintenance and running cost, this system is much useful for domestic purpose. It
is valuable alternative approach to improve overall efficiency and reuse the waste heat. The study has
shown that such a system is technically feasible and economically viable.
The paper is about utilizing the exhaust heat energy which is produced from the internal combustion engine of the vehicle to generate electricity by means turbine rotation. This system also helps to improve the performance, efficiency and emissions of the internal combustion engine.
A heat pump is a device that provides heat energy from a source of heat to a destination called a "heat sink". Heat pumps are designed to move thermal energy opposite to the direction of spontaneous heat flow by absorbing heat from a cold space and releasing it to a warmer one. A heat pump uses some amount of external power to accomplish the work of transferring energy from the heat source to the heat sink.
While air conditioners and freezers are familiar examples of heat pumps, the term "heat pump" is more general and applies to many HVAC (heating, ventilating, and air conditioning) devices used for space heating or space cooling. When a heat pump is used for heating, it employs the same basic refrigeration-type cycle used by an air conditioner or a refrigerator, but in the opposite direction - releasing heat into the conditioned space rather than the surrounding environment. In this use, heat pumps generally draw heat from the cooler external air or from the ground.[1] In heating mode, heat pumps are three to four times more efficient in their use of electric power, than are simple electrical resistance heaters.

What is Common: FLUE GASES
4. OPERATING PRINCIPLE OF A
CONDENSING ECONOMISER:
Condensing Economisers
are heat exchangers used
in boilers that recover heat
from flue gases to heat the
feed water and condense
flue gas to moisture.
Also known as FEEDWATER
ECONOMISERS.
5. INDIRECT CONTACT
CONDENSING ECONOMISERS:
In principle, a shell & tube heat
exchanger. Counter flow action
between the feed water and flue
gases takes place to condense the
flue gases.
Max. fluid heating temp.: 95°C.
Min. stack gas cooling temp.: 25°C
6. ■ Provides energy savings upto
15%.
■ Can heat process water upto
100°C, without contamination.
■ Provides water savings of upto
4,00,000 litres per year.
■ Reduces GHG emissions on site
by approximately 53 kgs/kWh.
■ Water condensate absorbs CO2 at
a rate of 1 kg/hr.
■ Required condensate needs to
be treated.
■ Must be designed to withstand
corrosion.
■ Very low heat transfer
coefficient (~ 32 W/m2
).
Merits: Limitations:
7. DIRECT CONTACT
CONDENSING ECONOMISERS:
Similar to a condenser used to cool
steam. Recovers latent heat of the
gas by spraying the feed water
directly on the incoming plume.
Max. fluid heating temp.: 60°C
Min. stack gas cooling temp.: 25°C.
8. ■ Non fouling heat exchanger
surface.
■ High heat transfer coefficient
b/w 2500 – 3150 W/m2
.
■ Provides energy savings by
upto 10% in comparison to
conventional economisers.
■ Produces dilute condensate in
comparison to that of indirect
one.
■ Saves make up water in plant
by upto 4%.
■ Reduces GHG emissions
onsite by 55 kgs/kWh.
■ Can heat the feed water only
upto 60°C.
■ Requires significantly low
temperature feed water to
enter the economiser.
■ Process water condensate
must be treated to remove the
combustion products first and
then flue gas condensate.
■ Mist eliminator is necessary to
prevent carryover of small
droplets.
Merits: Limitations:
9. HOW MUCH HEAT IS RECOVERED?
If the boiler exhaust gases are leaving the furnace at 900°C at the rate of
2100 m3
/hr and are condensed to 90°C, then the total heat recovered by
condensing in the economiser is:
Q = m ∙ Cpf ∙ ∆T
where Cpf = Specific heat of flue gases = 1000.59 kJ/kg – K, and m = V × ρ,
where ρ = Density of flue gases = 1.19 kg/m3
.
Q = V × ρ ∙ Cpf ∙ ∆T = (2100/3600) × 1.19 × 1000.59 × (900 – 90) = 562.61kW
For a plant operating all day, the Q recovered is 13.2 MW.
For the plant operating for 325 – 340 Days a year, the Q recovered is 4.5
GW.
10. APPLICATIONS:
•Thermal Power Plants.
•Breweries and wineries.
•Chemical & Pharmaceutical Plants.
•Textile Processing Plants and tanneries.
•Greenhouses.
•Commercial Laundry.
•Pulp and Paper Mills.
•District Heating Plants.
•Air Conditioning Plants.
11. CASE STUDY: Transparent Energy
Systems Pvt. Ltd., Pune, India.
First company in India to
manufacture a natural gas fired
condensing boiler economiser unit.
Cools flue gases below its dew
point temperature to 47°C. Also
makes the flue gas condensate
alkaline.
Achieves a thermal efficiency of
94% on the basis of Higher
Heating Value of the fuel & 103%
on the basis of Lower Heating
Value of the fuel.
12. MYTHS SURROUNDING CONDENSING ECONOMISERS:
Myth 1: They are only efficient when fully condensing.
Response: Not true. They need not fully condense. Seasonal condensation also
yields same results (proved by Energy Savings Trust, London, UK).
Myth 2: They are expensive.
Response: They were expensive when first introduced. But with the new
equipment, they have become cheap.
Myth 3: The plume is a nuisance.
Response: Plume is an indication of the proper functioning of the system. Care
must be taken to not let out the plume near residential areas.
Myth 4: The condensate is a problem and creates difficulties in installation.
Response: Condensate has a pH anywhere between 3 – 5, which is the same
as tomato juice. This condensate can be handled by a separate drain to treat it.
13. KEY CONSIDERATIONS:
•Establishing how much heat is available.
•Is there sufficient heat sink available?
•Ensure that entering temperature of the heat sink is below flue gas dew point
to cause condensation.
•Evaluate impact on the existing system including blow down, flash steam,
deaerator, water treatment etc.
•Fuel used.
•Space for component installation including stacks, plume impingement unit
etc.
•Cost savings, installed cost, payback period and payback rate.
•Direct or Indirect?
- site specific.
- customer preference and cost.
- application and heat sink temperature.
14. MARKET BARRIERS:
•Not an “off-the-shelf” technology. Each application is an engineered
solution. Requires good understanding of the technology and its
applications.
•Needs a suitable and large heat sink. Small heat sinks capture only upto
25% of the latent heat.
•Steam is a necessary evil in the industry and the project will face a lot of
challenges in getting approved.
•Initial units installed in the 1980’s and 1990’s has sulphur induced
corrosion which is a stigma carried even today. This is not an issue with
natural gas fired boilers.
15. FUTURE SCOPE IN INDIA:
The USA, UK, Europe, Canada, Australia and New Zealand have already
installed various plants of sizeable capacities to reduce CO2 emissions and
increase energy savings.
India has entered the fray with a few manufacturers and application in local
industries.
Govt. of India has begun to work out possible changes in thermal power
plants in accordance with its scheme of rural electrification. NTPC, Kawas
is one such project.
A 4 MW waste heat recovery unit has been set up by G. R. Sponge &
Power Limited in Chhattisgarh in 2007 and ratified by the UN.
