BOILER AND COMPLETE POWER PLANT AUTOMATION
DCS / PLC BASED TURNKEY POWER PLANT AUTOMATION SYSTEM
Boiler Automation Advantages And Schematic Diagram:

Boiler Automation Advantages:
- Improved Efficiency by 3-5%.
- Improved Steam to Fuel Ratio due to constant FW Temperature and increase in Boiler Efficiency (Please see Fuel Ratio Equation)
-
Optimum Combustion Reduces Un-burnt Fuel Losses This is evident from:
- Decrease in Oxygen and Increase in Carbon Dioxide Percentage in Flue Gas and at the same time reduction in Excess Air Percentage.
- Reduction in Flue Gas Carbon Monoxide Percentage.
- Reduction in Excess Air means optimum usage of Fan Drives and thus Power Saving.
- Maintained Steam Drum Level with Pressure Compensation Ensures Optimum Steam Generation while compensating for Shrink and Swell in the Drum Level.
- Reduction in Clinker Formation due to good combustion condition.
- Reduction in Thermal Shocks, Improves Equipment Life Expectancy.
- Energy Savings in Electricity, Fuel, Water, Steam.
- Equipment Protection.
-
All Key Performance Indicators are Highlighted and Recorded, hence Performance Records and Trends maintained which are used for:
- Fault Finding and Identifying the Reasons.
- Predictive Maintenance.
- Reduced Downtime.
- Ensure Maximum Up Time.
ADVANTAGES: Power Plant Automations Ensure Higher Efficiency:
Proper Combustion reaction in the Furnace Improves Boiler Efficiency, this in turn improves Steam to Fuel Ratio and leads to Fuel Saving. This can be demonstrated by Equation below:

Where:
- H = Enthalpy of Superheated Steam
- h = Enthalpy of Feed Water
- Fuel GCV: Fuel's Gross Calorific Value
Our focus on maintaining higher temperature at De-Aerator further improves this equation.
