Thermal Power Plant located in Ohio generates electricity from coal. It has a capacity of 2000 MW and supplies 1.5 million customers. The plant receives 21,000 tons of coal per day via barge, rail, and trucks. Coal is pulverized and fed into boilers heated to 1000°C to power turbines that generate electricity. Emissions are controlled through scrubbers that absorb 92% of sulfur and particulate pollutants and a SCR system that converts nitrogen oxides to pure nitrogen using ammonia. Ash and scrubber byproducts are reused in concrete, roads, and drywall.

2. Energy Corporation
• 6 million customers within a 67,000-square-mile (170,000 km2) area of Ohio, Pennsylvania,
West Virginia, Virginia, Maryland, New Jersey and New York.
• Its generation subsidiaries control more than 23,000 megawatts of capacity
• Distribution lines span over 194,000 miles.
• In 2013, FirstEnergy ranked 181 on the Fortune 500 list of the largest public corporations in
America.
• 60% is generated by coal

3. Electricity Production from coal
• Capacity : 3 Generating Unit, 2000 MW Electricity, 1.5 million customers
• Fuel Source – Coal used 21000 tonnes per day by plant it is taken from barge, rail, trucks

5. • Staker – 900 tonnes coal each hour
• 16 feeders
• 8 pulvarisers
• Pulvariser output 335 tonnes/hour puvarised coal
• Boiler – 1000 °C
• Turbine – 3600 rpm
• Generator Generates – 34481 Amp, 18000 Volts
• Stepup transformer – 345000 Volts then to sub- stations , poles, Step down transformer
• Finally reaches to homes

6. • Scrubber
• Flyash – Mechanical process used for Concrete, roads, roofing, granules, grounding
• SO2 mixed with limestone, water SLURRY IS FORMED 4000 tonnes (92% sulphur, 99%
pariticulate pollutants absorbs) and gas is given out by chimney
• Gypsum process
• Slurry produce Calcium sulphate 3 million gallons/day, it is forced with
oxidation with gypsum and dried
• It helps in producing dry wall and wall board then can be used for homes
• SCR System
• Gas also contains nitrogen oxide its reacted with ammonia
• Water vapour and Pure nitrogen is generated with 9 chemicals which 80% of element
we breathe
