Fluidizing turbine system
Outline
Instead of using the fluidizing blower, this system drives the supercharger using the incineration waste heat to supply combustion air to the incineration furnace. It reduces power consumption by approximately 40% without compromising the safety of the fluidized incineration furnace.
Features
Same level of safety as the conventional incineration furnace
Since the incineration furnace and combustion exhaust gas lines are negatively pressurized, the risk of exhaust gas leakage is extremely low.
Consistent operation owing to a clean-air-driven supercharger
Since clean air flows to the supercharger, no damage will occur on the supercharger due to dust.
The only change from the conventional incineration furnace: method of combustion air supply
The system is implemented through the installation of a supercharger and the updating of the air pre-heater. Since the scope of work is limited for the implementation of the system, power saving may be achieved for the incineration equipment at the time of air pre-heater updating.
Applicable to a wide range of furnace types
It can be combined with incineration equipment of various furnace types and scales, such as fluidized incineration furnaces, multi-layer combustion furnaces, and circulating fluidized furnaces.
Effects of implementation
Approximately 40% reduction in the power consumption for the incineration equipment
By not using a fluidizing blower, the power consumption for the incineration equipment is reduced by approximately 40%.
