G8 summit meeting held in July 2008 decided to set up a long-term goal, by 2050, reducing the world greenhouse emissions by half of those emitted in 1990. In November 2009, the Government announced to reduce the national $CO_2$ emission by 30[%] of BAU by 2020. Electric power industries in Korea produce most of their electricity by burning fossil fuels, and emit approximately 28[%] of national $CO_2$ emissions. Monitoring the $CO_2$ emissions. Monitoring the $CO_2$ emission of electric power plants is very important. This paper presents a method to calculate the hourly $CO_2$ emission for a thermal power plant burning mixture of coal and oil using the performance test data and coal-oil mix rate. An example of $CO_2$ emission calculation is also demonstrated.

Fly ash is glassy dust collected from coal fired power plant. Recently, much research for fly ash conducted in Korea and fly ash is a valuable material especially when it used in high strength, high flowable, high durability concrete. But it varies with coal source, coal grinding and boiler conditions. Therefore, it is important that quality control of fly ash itself to get high quality concrete. In this study, over 20 samples of Poryong and Samchonpo fly ashs are tested and analyzed. The physical, chemical properties of fly ash and their relationships are investigated and it can be applied to quality control of concrete.

Belt-conveyer driving systems, which transport coal stored in the yard of a coal-fired fossil power plant to coal silos, experienced severe vibrations. From measurement, it was found that the vibrations showed beating phenomenoa and arose from hydraulic couplings installed between motors and gear boxes. In the present paper, described are results of case studies on vibration troubleshooting for the belt-conveyor driving systems: 1)resonance of the system; 2)field balancing.

Recently, coal-fired power plants are experiencing many problems that they have never experienced before due to an increase in flexible operation. In particular, a two-phase flow accelerated corrosion on water wall tubes in a boiler has not been detected overseas or domestically. There is no response plan to deal with such corrosion problem either. However, oxide film damage and tube material corrosion due to a two-phase flow accelerated corrosion are being discovered on water wall boiler tubes of domestic coal-fired power plants recently. If this situation is severe, it can cause enormous damage such as tube rupture. Therefore, in this paper, in order to prepare a response plan for a two-phase flow accelerated corrosion on water wall tubes in the future, differences between a two-phase flow accelerated corrosion and a single-phase flow accelerated corrosion were investigated and an example of discovery of a two-phase flow accelerated corrosion on water wall tubes was presented.

미세먼지 감축에 대한 사회적 요구 증가와 강화되는 대기오염물질 배출허용기준을 충족시키기 위해 구조적 제약조건을 갖는 500 MW급 석탄화력발전소 탈황설비의 성능개선 방안을 제시하였다. 탈황설비 흡수탑을 통과하는 배기가스가 선회하도록 내부 설비를 개조하여 난류를 형성시켜 물질전달효율을 증가시키고 반응 면적 및 시간을 증가시킴으로써 황산화물 저감 및 먼지 포집 능력을 향상시킬 수 있었다. 개선결과 황산화물 제거효율은 91.61%에서 98.43%로 향상되었고 먼지 제거성능은 77.4%에서 87.08%로 향상되었다. 배출농도는 황산화물 7.85 ppm, 먼지 4.67 mg/㎥이 배출되어 2023년의 대기오염물질 배출허용기준인 황산화물 25 ppm, 먼지 5 mg/㎥을 만족하는 수준이다. 본 연구의 성능 개선 방식은 유사한 제약조건을 갖는 다른 석탄화력발전소에도 효과적으로 적용될 수 있으리라 기대된다.

The proprietary post-combustion CO₂ solvent (KoSol) developed by the Korea Electric Power Research Institute (KEPRI) was applied at the Shanghai Shidongkou CO₂ Capture Pilot Plant (China Huaneng CERI, capacity: 120,000 ton CO₂/yr) of the China Huaneng Group (CHNG) for performance evaluation. The key results of the pilot test and data on the South Korean/Chinese electric power market were used to calculate the predicted cost of CO₂ avoided upon deployment of CO₂ capture technology in commercial-scale coal-fired power plants. Sensitivity analysis was performed for the key factors. It is estimated that, in the case of South Korea, the calculated cost of CO₂ avoided for an 960 MW ultra-supercritical (USC) coal-fired power plant is approximately 35~44 USD/tCO₂ (excluding CO₂ transportation and storage costs). Conversely, applying the same technology to a 1,000 MW USC coal-fired power plant in Shanghai, China, results in a slightly lower cost (32~42 USD/tCO₂). This study confirms the importance of international cooperation that takes into consideration the geographical locations and the performance of CO₂ capture technology for the involved countries in the process of advancing the economic efficiency of large-scale CCS technology aimed to reduce greenhouse gases

최근 미세먼지 등 대기오염물질 배출에 대한 전국민적 우려로 정부는 대기오염물질 배출규제 강화정책을 내놓고 있다. 국내 석탄화력발전소는 대기환경설비 성능개선에 박차를 가하고 있으며, 이 논문에는 500 MW급 표준석탄화력 탈질설비에 촉매단을 추가하는 성능개선사례를 다루고 있으며, 촉매단 추가 전·후 성능시험시험과 NOx제거효율에 따른 탈질설비 핵심성능 인자의 변화를 살펴보았다. 연구결과 촉매단 추가 전·후 탈질설비 효율은 80%에서 88%로 상승했고, 핵심성능인자인 미반응 암모니아, SO2/SO3 전환율은 설계보증치를 만족하였으나, 차압의 경우 설계보증치를 초과하였다. 동시에, NOx 제거효율에 따른 핵심성능인자 변화는, 미반응 암모니아 농도, 차압 항목은 NOx 제거효율이 증가에 따라 같이 증가하는 양상을 보여 관리 및 개선이 필요하다는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다.

Air pollutants emitted from chimneys of coal-fired power plants are considered to be a major source of fine particulate matter in the atmosphere. In order to manage fine particle in the chimney of a coal-fired power plant, it is necessary to know the concentration of fine particle emitted in real time, but the current system is difficult. In this study, a real-time measurement system for chimney fine particle was developed, and measurements were performed on six coal-fired power plants. Through the measurements, the mass concentration distribution according to the particle size could be secured. All six chimneys showed bimodal distribution, and the count median diameters of each mode were 0.5 and 1.1 ㎛. In addition, it was compared with the gravimetric measurement method, and it was determined that the relative accuracy for PM10 was within 20%, and the value measured using the developed measuring instrument was reliable. Finally, three power plants were continuously measured for one month, and as a result of comparing the concentration of PM10 according to the amount of power generation, it was confirmed that the PM10 discharged from the chimney increased in the form of an exponential function according to the amount of power generation.

국내 석탄화력발전소의 아역청탄과 역청탄의 혼소는 일반화되어 있으며 아역청탄의 비율이 무게 기준으로 50%가 넘는 경우도 있다. 저급탄인 아역청탄의 혼소 비율이 높아짐에 따라 연소 부산물인 비회에서 미연물질이 다량 발생하고 있으며 이는 콘크리트 혼화제로서의 비회 재활용을 가로막는 중요한 인자로 작용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 아역청탄 혼소율이 높은 국내 500MW 표준 석탄화력발전소에서 미연물질이 포함된 비회를 입수하여 이에 대한 분석을 수행하였다. 이러한 미연물질은 석탄의 열분해 생성물인 검댕(soot)인 것으로 나타났으며 실제 석탄화력발전소에서 사용하고 있는 석탄과 혼탄의 성상 데이터와 CPD모델을 사용하여 혼탄별 검댕(soot)의 발생가능성을 분석하였다.

Global warming due to greenhouse gases is an issue of great concern today. Fossil fuel power plants, especially coal-fired thermal power plants, are a major source of carbon dioxide emission. In this work, carbon capture and utilization using sodium hydroxide was studied experimentally. Application for flue gas of a coal-fired power plant is considered. Carbon dioxide, reacting with an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, could be converted to sodium bicarbonate ($NaHCO_3$). A bench-scale unit of a reactor system was designed for this experiment. The capture scale of the reactor system was 2 kg of carbon dioxide per day. The detailed operational condition could be determined. The purity of produced sodium bicarbonate was above 97% and the absorption rate of $CO_2$ was above 95% through the experiment using this reactor system. The results obtained in this experiment contain useful information for the construction and operation of a commercial-scale plant. Through this experiment, the possibility of carbon capture for coal power plants using sodium hydroxide could be confirmed.
