Thermal-based power plants can produce electricity from coal or other fuel sources. The coal-fired process requires three different steps to turn energy released from burning coal to generating electricity for consumption. Coal fired power plants, while producing power, require a lot of water and produce a lot of pollutants like ash and CO2. Learn how the …



Originally, coal-fired power plants are designed for baseload operation which is unable to operate at a low load and change output rapidly . At present, the hard coal-fired power plants can reach the minimum load with 25–40% of nominal load and the lignite-fired power plants are usually not able to operate in <50–60% of nominal load.

The bunkers in which blended coal with biomass pellets need to be identified along with the operation group and all necessary interlocks to be ensured before dumping coal in bunkers.







Coal feeder are mostly used in thermal power plants as coal is the main source of fuel for the combustion process. And in order to control the combustion correct amount of coal need to feed into the boiler to keep the process under control. As you see in the diagram feeder lies between the bunker and the crusher or coal mill.
