A circulating fluidized bed boiler comprises a fluidized bed combustion chamber, a recirculating system for recirculating fluidized solids through the combustion chamber, and a plurality of tubes for withstanding supercritical pressure are disposed around the walls of the combustion chamber for circulating cooling fluid between an inlet header at the bottom of the chamber and an outlet chamber at the top of the combustion chamber. A water steam separator directs steam to a superheater and is bypassed during normal operation.

Supercritical steam pressurized circulating fluidized bed boiler

A power plant having a fluidized bed steam boiler for supplying steam for powering a turbine generator comprises low pressure and high pressure feed water heaters, and combustion air heater is provided with a gas turbine for burning sulfur containing fuels, with heat recovery economizers for reducing the exhaust temperature of the gas turbine and directing the exhaust gas from the gas turbine into the fluidized bed for reducing the emissions therein.

Circulating fluidized bed power plant with turbine fueled with sulfur

A combined cycle power generation system is disclosed. The system includes a fluidized bed boiler, a hot separator, a steam turbine system and a gas turbine system. The gas turbine system is provided with a source of high temperature compressed air heated in three stages by a recuperator connected to an output of the gas turbine, an external bed heater connected to the hot separator, and a gas turbine combustor fueled by natural gas and/or coal gas provided by a gasification process.

Combined cycle power plant incorporating atmospheric circulating

A power plant having multiple steam boilers for supplying steam for processing and for powering a turbine generator comprises a steam turbine having first and second stages, a steam powered processing unit, a plurality of steam boilers, each having a primary steam generator and a reheater, a system of steam lines for conducting primary steam from the steam boilers to said turbine, and to the process unit, return lines for returning cold steam from the first stage of the turbine to the reheaters for reheating, and lines for conducting reheated steam from the reheaters to the second stage of the turbine; and isolating valves in the lines with pressure relief valves on each side of the isolating valves for selectively isolating each of the boilers from the turbine and conducting primary steam through the reheaters of the boiler and to the processing unit.

Power plant with dual pressure reheat system for process steam supply

A steam generator having a fluidized bed combustion system that includes a fluidized bed combustor and at least one hot separator, includes a superheater and a reheater with at least first and second or final stages disposed in a flue gas pass with the superheater upstream of the final stage reheater has a cold steam bypass system for controlling the temperature of the second or final stage reheater by dividing reheat steam into selective first and second portions and directing the first portion to the first stage reheater and recombining said first and second portions and directing them through the second or final stage reheater.

System for reheat steam temperature control in circulating fluidized bed

A steam generator having a fluidized bed combustion system that includes a fluidized bed combustor and at least one hot separator, includes a superheater and a reheater with at least first and second or final (possibly more) stages disposed in a flue gas pass has a cold steam bypass system for controlling the temperature of the second or final stage reheater by dividing reheat steam into selective first and second portions and directing the first portion to the first stage reheater and recombining said first and second portions and directing them through the second or final stage reheater.
