3 3 Why biomass co-firing? Reduction of fossil CO 2 emissions Low cost biomass available Biomass side-product (bark, wood waste, etc.) Biomass derived waste has to be incinerated Industrial sludges Difficulties to combust biomass as a single fuel Money.. (tax reductions, investment subsidies, etc.)

9 9 What is co-firing? Combustion of two or more fuels together in a boiler Co-firing of biomass with fossil fuel (usually coal or peat) Co-firing of biomass with other biofuels or waste fractions In Finland very common practice Fluidised bed boiler enables co-firing very easily Co-firing more challenging to arrange in pulverised coal fired boilers Direct co-firing, indirect co-firing Indirect co-firing of biomass with oil or natural gas
10 10 Co-firing of biomass with coal Energy density of biomass low compared to coal Moisture content of biomass typically high Biomass will produce more flue gases (per produced energy) In practice, capacity of the boiler will be reduced when biomass cofiring is started Corrosion issues Ash quality will change
11 11 Towards lower CO 2 emissions and higher efficiencies with co-firing technology Fossil + bio co-firing High plant efficiency Fossil CO 2 emissions 0 1 %-pts eff. penalty Up to 50% CO 2 reduction Good plant efficiency Zero (=biogenic) CO 2 emissions Lowest OPEX* and CAPEX Higher OPEX* and CAPEX than without co-firing Highest OPEX* and CAPEX * operating costs without CO 2 allowances Boiler figures:
12 12 Direct co-firing of biomass in coal power plants Biomass co-firing in modern power plants with efficiencies up to 45 % is the most cost-effective biomass use for power generation. In the case of co-combustion of up to 5 % energy of biomass only minor changes in the fuel handling equipment are needed and the boiler output is not noticeably derated. For biomass exceeding ~10% share changes in mills, burners and dryers are needed. If not carefully designed, firing biomass fuels in an existing coal fired power plant involves risks of increased plant outages and possible interference in plant operation due to the differences in combustion characteristics of coal and biomass These are all manageable but that they require careful consideration of fuels, boiler operating conditions, and boiler design.
13 13 Biomass fuels - properties heating value: usually low compared to fossil fuels chemical composition: complex, several organic substances and compounds moisture content: high, can be more than 60 w-% density, particle size, and other characteristics affecting handling: low bulk density, large particle size, often difficult to remove from silos ash content, ash fusion properties, and chemical composition: low ash content, but ashes have low melting points due to different salts harmful components: large quantities of alkaline metals, chlorine, sometimes also heavy metals Torrefied biomass: a tailored biomass fuel for co-firing in PC boiler
14 14 Torrefaction The main idea is to modify biomass so that it becomes brittle and can be milled easily by coal mills.
15 15 A selection of torrefaction technologies
16 16 Chraracteristics of fuels from boiler design point of view

20 20 Different co-firing concepts
21 21 Co-firing concepts Pulverised fuel fired boiler Direct co-firing Biomass is combusted together with the main fuel (coal) Small percentage (few percent) can be mixed with coal, milled together and injected to the furnace with coal Larger share: Milled separately Milled biomass injected to coal powder pipelines after mills Large share of biomass usually: Milled separately Separate biomass burners
22 22 Direct co-firing of biomass with coal Pulverised fuel boiler Biomass Milling Biomass burner < 5 % Furnace Coal Milling Coal Burner
23 23 Co-firing of biomass with coal Fluidised bed boiler - Fuels can be mixed and fed to the furnace as a mix or using separate feeding lines - Robust technology enables efficient biomass co-firing
24 24 Direct biomass co-firing in Finland Practically all fluidised bed boilers use a fuel mixture instead of single fuel Some larger fluidised bed boilers use coal and biomass as a varying mixture Biomass typically forest residue, energy wood (small wood), bark, etc. One or several feeding systems depending on physical characteristics of the biomass
25 25 UPM Kaipola An industrial power plant with combined heat and power fluidized-pulverized boiler 104 MWth / 26 MWe A variety of different fuels can be used independently, these include sludge, bark and peat, as well as pulverized coal in the coal burners. Kaipola s plant generates the steam needed for paper drying and also supplies about 10% of the mill s annual electricity requirement. Boiler output 104 MW (80% by fluidized bed), supplier Kvaerner Pulping Electricity output 26 MW, Turbine supplier ABB Stal, Sweden Main fuels Other fuels sludge, bark and peat coal ( max 50% ) can be burned in burner or crushed in fluidized bed Support fuel heavy oil
26 26 Rauhalahti CHP plant in Jyväskylä Was originally designed for pulverised peat and coal. Fluidised bed boiler (295 MW th ) was installed in 1993 and the use of biomass fuels was started. The main fuels are currently peat, by-products from sawmills and forest residues (wood chips, stumps). Also some coal is used is used through dedicated burners. Wood fuel feeding system was modified in The share of forest fuels, forest chips and stumps has been increasing significantly.
27 27 Possibility to utilise 100% biomass in co-fired CFB Alholmens Kraft, Pietarsaari, Finland CFB technology: 550MW th 194kg/s, 165bar, 545 C Uses 40 % peat, 20 % coal, 30 % of biomass (forest residues, industrial wood and bark etc.) and 10 % SRF. The design of the plant allows great fuel flexibility, the boiler is able to combust all mixtures from 100 % biomass to 100 % coal.

29 29 PC boiler co-firing example: Helen, Finland Hanasaari CHP-plant: coal fired plant producing electric power (220 MW) and district heat (445 MW) to the city of Helsinki co-firing experiments with wood pellets (5 to 10 % share) during started using pellets constantly from late 2014 with 5-7 % share (first at their other plant, Salmisaari and then at Hanasaari after permits) also R&D work conducted on the possible utilisation of torrefied biomass biomass share reaching possibly up to 40 % in the future
30 30 PC boiler co-firing example with sawdust Naantali 315 MW th CHP-plant: co-firing of sawdust and coal from early 2000 s coal and sawdust are blended in the coal yard and the mixture is fed into the boiler through coal mills sawdust s moisture (up to 65 %), do not cause any problems, as the wood fraction in fuel blend won t exceed 5 % on energy basis milling capacity limits wood fraction in fuel blend also some experiments with straw co-firing (see figure below)

37 37 Co-firing example from Denmark There is a long experience of co-firing at 350 MW e Studstrup Power Station Unit 4: The use of a separate straw feeding system is essential to warrant successful straw-coal co-firing. After the straw bales are processed the pulverized straw is fed pneumatically onward and fired through the centre-pipe of the coal burners. The maximum straw capacity at full boiler load is 20 ton/h which corresponds to a straw share of 10% on energy basis Pneumatic feeding system of straw at Studstrup power plant, courtesy of Dong Energy 37

66 66 I INDIRECT CO-FIRING BASED ON USE OF PYROLYSIS OIL
67 67 Liquid Bioenergy Carrier via Fast Pyrolysis Fast pyrolysis is a rapid (1-2 s) thermal (about 500 C) process done under inert conditions to convert solid biomass into liquid, gas and char fractions The produced liquid ( pyrolysis oil or bio-oil ) is a complex mixture of numerous different compounds. It also has low ph and it contains water. The heating value of pyrolysis oil is about half of conventional fuel oils The produced oil can be used as a substitute for fussil oils like HFO in many industrial processess VTT has developed world-class expertise in the production and analytics of biomass based pyrolysis oils

70 70 Summary CO2 emissions can be reduced efficiently by biomass co-firing Co-firing enables high efficiency energy production from biomass Challenges related to combustion of biomass are usually milder in co-firing (compared to 100% biomass firing) Co-firing can be retrofitted to existing coal fired power plant High share of biomass co-firing may cause fouling and/or corrosion In large scale logistics may cause challenges Co-firing may have negative impact on ash quality
