MECHANICAL & ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS

NEED OF ESPNEED OF ESP

ASH CONTENT IN INDIAN COAL IS HIGH (30~45)%.

20% OF ASH COLLECTED IN (BAH), REMAINING 80% IS

CARRIED ALONG WITH THE FLUE GAS.

CREATES AIR POLLUTION RESULTING IN HEALTH HAZARDS.

DUST COLLECTION IS NECESSARY THROUGH ESP IN THE

BOILER.

ESP EFFICIENCY IS OF THE ORDER OF 99.9%.

WEAR OF ID FAN BLADES ARE REDUCED DUE TO DUST

RESULTING IN REDUCED MAINTENANCE WORK IN ID FANS

BOILER CIRCUIT WITH PRECIPITATOR

ADVANTAGESADVANTAGES

• COLLECTS ALL TYPES OF DUST.

• LARGE VOLUME HANDLING CAPACITY .

• OPERATES OVER A WIDE RANGE OF INLET

CONDITIONS .

• LOW PRESSURE DROP (RARELY CROSSES 10–15mm of WC)

• LESS MAINTENANCE

ELECTROSTATIC PRECIPITATOR WORKING

PRINCIPLE

THE PRECIPITATION PROCESS INVOLVES 4 MAIN FUNCTIONS

CORONA GENERATION PARTICLE CHARGING PARTICLE COLLECTION REMOVAL OF PARTICLES

ESP - CORONA GENERATION

DUE TO THE IONISATION OF GAS MOLECULES, + VE IONS, -VE IONS AND FREE ELECTRONS ARE GENERATED.

CORONA DISCHARGE IN SPIRAL ELECTRODE

ESP - PARTICLE CHARGING

THE -VE CHARGES OF IONS AND FREE ELECTRONS TRAVEL TOWARDS +VE ELECTRODE AND THE +VE CHARGES OF IONS TRAVEL TOWARDS -VE ELECTRODES.

WHEN -VE IONS TRAVEL TOWARDS +VE ELECTRODES, THE -VE CHARGES GET ATTACHED TO THE DUST PARTICLES AND THUS THE DUST PARTICLES ARE ELECTRICALLY CHARGED,

RAPCON DISPLAY

IF ALIGNMENT IS NOT PROPER, LEAD TO UNEVEN CORONA GENERATION.

CORONA DISCHARGE WILL BE CONCENTRATED IN THE AREAS WHERE THE

ELECTRODES ARE CLOSER.

THIS UNEVEN CORONA LEADS TO UNEVEN PARTICLE CHARGING AND LOSS OF

EFFICIENCY.

THE SPARK-OVER VOLTAGE DEPENDS ON THE MAXIMUM CLEARANCE BETWEEN

THE ELECTRODES IN A FIELD.

IN CASE THIS CLEARANCE IS LESS, EVEN AT ONE PLACE IN THE ENTIRE FIELD,

THEN THE ENTIRE SECTION VOLTAGE COMES DOWN AND THE EFFICIENCY

REDUCES.

ELECTRODE ALIGNMENT

THE T/R CONTROL PANELS SHOULD BE ADJUSTED TO FEED THE MAXIMUM USABLE POWER TO THE RESPECTIVE FIELDS.

THE POWER REQUIREMENT VARIES CONTINUOUSLY WITH THE CHANGE IN PROCESS PARAMETERS WHICH IS TAKEN CARE BY AUTOMATIC CONTROLS.

POWER INPUT TO ESP FIELDS

DURING RAPPING, THE FALLING OF DUST PARTICLE TAKE A TRAJECTORY FORM.

LOWER THE ASPECT RATIO, THE TRAJECTORY DUST TRAVEL ALONG WITH GAS

FLOW WITHOUT FALLING IN TO HOPPERS – LEADS TO RE-ENTRAINMENT LOSS.

HIGHER THE RATIO, PERFORMANCE WILL BE GOOD.

OPTIMUM ASPECT RATIO DEPENDS ON ALLOWABLE VELOCITY, REQUIRED

COLLECTION EFFICIENCY AND AVAILABLE SPACE.

ASPECT RATIO

Aspect ratio = Effective length of ESP Collecting electrode height

IT IS THE TIME AVAILABLE FOR CAPTURING THE DUST PARTICLE.

MORE TREATMENT TIME AT REASONABLE VELOCITY IMPROVES

THE COLLECTION EFFICIENCY.

PROBABILITY OF CAPTURING THE RE-ENTRAINED PARTICLES

IMPROVES WITH TIME.

TREATMENT TIME

Treatment time, sec = Effective length of ESP in m Flue gas velocity in m/s

EXCESSIVE SPARKING REDUCES THE OPERATING VOLTAGE, EFFECT EFFICIENCY,

THUS REDUCING LIFE OF THE ELECTRODES.

FIELD STRENGTH IS ADJUSTED IN SUCH A WAY THAT LIMITED

SPARKS TAKES PLACE.

WITH SOME SPARKS/MIN. , MORE STRONG FIELD IS OBTAINED.

IF SPARK IS TOO HIGH : FREQUENT COLLAPSE OF FIELD WILL REDUCE THE

EFFICIENCY AND INCREASE THE EROSION OF EMITTING ELECTRODE.

SPARK RATE SHOULD BE KEPT WITHIN THE DESIRABLE LIMIT BASED ON

ELECTRODE LIFE, OPERATING VOLTAGE, PARTICLE RE-ENTRAINMENT AND

EXPLOSIBILITY LIMIT OF THE PROCESS GAS. BY ADJUSTING THE T/R CONTROLS.

SPARK RATE

ESP GAS FLOW DISTRIBUTION PATTERN THROUGHOUT THE

CROSS SECTION OF THE ESP SHOULD BE UNIFORM.

IF IT IS NOT WITHIN THE SPECIFIED LIMITS, THE

EFFICIENCY WOULD BE AFFECTED.

GAS DISTRIBUTION INSIDE

IF RAPPING FREQUENCY IS TOO HIGH : NOT ALLOW THE DUST TO

DEPOSIT ON COLLECTING ELECTRODE,THUS RE ENTRAINMENT

OF THE COLLECTED DUST.

IF RAPPING FREQUENCY IS TOO LOW : VERY THICK LAYER OF

ASH WILL DEPOSIT ON C.E. WHICH WILL CAUSE CONSIDERABLE

VOLTAGE DROP OR CAN CAUSE BACK CORONA IF RESISTIVITY IS

VERY HIGH .

INADEQUATE RAPPING CAUSES EXCESSIVE SPARKING, REDUCES

THE POWER INPUT TO THE ESP AND REDUCES THE EFFICIENCY .

RAPPING SYSTEM

• GAS VOLUME

• PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION

• GAS TEMPERATURE

• GAS VELOCITY

• RESISTIVITY

EFFECT OF PROCESS PARAMETERS ON ESP PERFORMANCE

IN CASE OF HIGHER GAS VOLUME, WHICH MAY OCCUR

FROM A CHANGE IN FLUE IN THE BOILER, THE GAS

VELOCITY IN THE ESP EXCEEDS AND THE TREATMENT

TIME REDUCES.

THIS CAUSES PARTICLES TO ESCAPE THE ESP FIELDS

WITHOUT COLLECTION THEREBY REDUCING THE

EFFICIENCY.

LOW GAS VOLUME USUALLY DO NOT REDUCE THE

EFFICIENCY.

GAS VOLUME

DECIDED BY COAL QUALITY, THE COAL MILL SETTINGS AND

BURNER DESIGN A PRECIPITATOR COLLECTS PARTICLES MOST

EASILY WHEN THE PARTICLE SIZE IS COARSE.

THE GENERATION OF THE CHARGING CORONA IN THE INLET

FIELD MAY BE SUPPRESSED IF THE GAS STREAM HAS TOO

MANY SMALL PARTICLES (LESS THAN 1 ΜM).

VERY SMALL PARTICLES (0.2 - 0.4ΜM) ARE THE MOST

DIFFICULT TO COLLECT BECAUSE THE FUNDAMENTAL FIELD-

CHARGING MECHANISM IS OVERWHELMED BY DIFFUSION

CHARGING DUE TO RANDOM COLLISIONS WITH FREE IONS

PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION

IN CASE OF DEVIATION IN GAS TEMPERATURE FROM THE

DESIGNED VALUE, THE RESISTIVITY OF THE DUST PARTICLE

CHANGES AND IF IT EXCEEDS THE CRITICAL VALUE OF

RESISTIVITY THEN THE EFFICIENCY COMES DOWN.

IF GAS TEMPERATURE DROPS BELOW THE ACID DEW POINT

TEMPERATURE, THEN THERE IS A DANGER TO THE ESP

INTERNALS AS THEY MAY GET CORRODED

GAS TEMPERATURE

VARIATION OF ESP EMISSION W.R.T. GAS TEMPERATURE IS NOT

LINEAR.

FOR 20 DEG. C (15 %) INCREASE OF GAS TEMPERATURE,

EMISSION SHOOTS UP BY ABOUT 2 TIMES.

VELOCITY IS DECIDED BY THE GAS FLOW AND COLLECTION EFFICIENCY

REQUIRED.

THERE ARE TWO FORCES ACTING ON THE DUST PARTICLES HAVING

PERPENDICULAR

TO EACH OTHER AS SHOWN IN DIAGRAM.

HIGHER THE GAS VELOCITY, HIGHER THE

CARRYOVER OF DUST PARTICLES WITHOUT

COLLECTION –HENCE REENTERTAINMENT .

VERY POOR VELOCITY ALTERS THE FLOW

DISTRIBUTION AND EFFECTS SETTLING

OF DUST PARTICLES.

GAS VELOCITY

.ELECTRIC FORCE

RESULT

GRAPH SHOWS THE EFFECT ON ESP EMISSION, DUE TO INCREASE OF GAS FLOW ONLY, WITHOUT CONSIDERING VARIATION IN GAS TEMP. & DUST LOAD.

VARIATION OF ESP EMISSION W.R.T. GAS FLOW IS NOT LINEAR. FOR 25 % INCREASE OF GAS FLOW, EMISSION SHOOTS UP BY

ABOUT 5 TIMES.

IT IS DEFINED AS THE ABILITY OF THE COLLECTED PARTICULATE MATTER TO ACCEPT OR RELEASE AN ELECTRIC CHARGE.

LOW RESISTIVITY : PARTICLES GIVE UP THEIR CHARGE TOO EASILY AND BECOME RE-ENTRAINED IN THE GAS

TOO HIGH RESISTIVE DUST DOES NOT READILY CHARGE& GIVE UP ITS NEGATIVE CHARGE TO COLLECTIVE ELECTRODE .

RESISTIVITY DEPENDS ON: - GAS TEMP., GAS MOISTURE,

SULPHUR CONTENT IN COAL,

ASH COMPOSITION (SiO2,

Na2O3 ,CaO etc)

CARBON CONTENT IN ASH

PARTICLE SIZE OF DUST.

LOW RESISTIVITY - 104-107 OHM-CM NORMAL RESISTIVITY - 108-1010 OHM-CM HIGH RESISTIVITY - MORE THAN 1010 OHM-CM
