Power generation systems based on the oxy-coal combustion with carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) capability are being proposed and discussed lately. Although a large number of lab scale studies for oxy-coal power plant have been made, studies of pilot scale or commercial scale power plant are not enough. Only a few demonstration projects for oxy-coal power plant are publicized recently. The proposed systems are evolving and various alternatives are to be comparatively evaluated. This paper presents a proposed approach for performance evaluation of a commercial 100 MWe class power plant, which is currently being considered for 'retrofitting' for the demonstration of the concept. The system is configurated based on design and operating conditions with proper assumptions. System components to be included in the discussion are listed. Evaluation criteria in terms of performance are summarized based on the system heat and mass balance and simple performance parameters, such as the fuel to power efficiency and brief introduction of the second law analysis. Also, gas composition is identified for additional analysis to impurities in the system including the purity of oxygen and unwanted gaseous components of nitrogen, argon and oxygen in air separation unit and $CO_2$ processing unit.

The sulfur oxides is one of important materials to come about air pollution at thermal plant consuming fossil fuel. The several flue gas desulfurization equipments are installed and operated to decrease sulfur oxides. The flue gas desulfurization of our thermal plant is designed for optimizing flue gas desulfurization technical development and research by Korea Electric Power Research Institute. We operate this desulfurization equipment. Now, our country imports nearly 97 percentage of the energy source and competes with the world for the energy because of the sudden rise of raw materials cost. The fuel cost decrease of power plants is the most important factor of the operation. The fuel used in the experiment is the domestic anthracite from Kangwon Taeback and the bituminous coal from Taldinsky Mine in Russia. This Study is experimental investigations of desulfurization characteristics for domestic anthracite power plant by increasing bituminous coal. We surveyed possible parameters and conducted the performance about desulfurization equipment in Yong Dong thermal power plant.

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.

본 연구에서는 석탄화력발전의 출력 감소가 계통한계가격과 온실가스감축량에 어떻게 영향을 미치는지 분석하였다. 분석방법은 국영 발전회사에서 이용하는 전력거래예측프로그램을 이용하였으며 전력계통의 운영조건은 제7차 전력수급기본계획의 전력수요와 전원구성을 근거로 하였다. 분석결과 전체 석탄화력발전의 최대출력을 29 [%]까지 감소한 경우 계통한계가격은 감소전과 비교하여 12 [%p] 상승하고 온실가스 배출량은 9,966 [kton] 감축되었다. 또한 석탄화력발전기 전체 용량의 30 [%]에 해당하는 저효율 석탄화력발전기 16기를 정지한 경우 계통한계가격은 14 [%p] 까지 증가하였고 온실가스 배출량은 12,574[kton]까지 감축 가능함을 알 수 있었다.

An environmental geochemical survey of heavy metal distribution in marine surface sediments around the ocean of Samcheonpo coal-fired power plant was conducted to investigate the possibility of coal-ash leakage from ash pond and the associated heavy metal pollution in sedimental deposits due to the operation of the coal-fired power plant. The X-Ray Diffractometry (XRD) analysis showed that the main leakage point of coal-ash was limited to a single site of the first ash pond. It also appeared that the amounts of organic carbon and metal elements were positively correlated to the grain size distribution, and that Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Ni, and Zn were bounded to organic ligands. However, the distributions of Cd, Hg, and Mn did not have any significant correlation with the sediment grain size and organic matters. In particular, the distribution of Cd appeared to be affected by the concentration of the carbonate materials in the study area.

This study examines the policy direction and specific countermeasures for addressing possible port labour issues from the perspective of Just Transition which may be raised by closing coal fired power plants in Korea. Current energy transition policy and port labour policy in Korea are reviewed and case studies in the countries which has experienced closure of coal fired power plants are undertaken. Although it varies from country to country, a similar approach was found that the employment problem of coal fired power plant closures and measures based on Just Transition regime to mitigate the negative impacts that occur in the region are the key to successful transition. It is suggested that countermeasures for port labour should be institutionalized for providing stakeholders with legal stability covering labours not only directly employed by the plants but also employed in entities in the whole supply chains.

Coal-fired power plants emit various Particulate Matter(PM) at coal storage pile and ash landfill as well as the stack, and affect the surrounding environment. Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy and Energy Dispersive X-ray analyzer(FE-SEM/EDX) were used to develop identification factor and the physico-chemical analysis of PM emitted from a power plant. In this study, three samples of pulverized coal, bottom ash, and fly ash were analyzed. The pulverized coal was spherical particles in shape and the chemical composition of C-O-Si-Al and C/Si and C/Al ratios were 200~300 on average. The bottom ash was spherical or non-spherical particles in shape, chemical composition was O-C-Si-Al-Fe-Ca and C/Si and C/Al ratios were $4.3{\pm}4.6$ and $8.8{\pm}10.0$. The fly ash was spherical particles in shape, chemical composition was O-Si-Ai-C-Fe-Ca and C/Si and C/Al ratios were $0.5{\pm}0.2$ and $0.8{\pm}0.5$.

This paper reviews the dynamic load phenomenon referred to as 'silo quaking', caused shock vibration and loud noise, during gravity discharge in coal silos. Quaking in tall silo is examined using experimental data obtained from a Coal Power Plant and several experimental and numerical investigations available in the published literature. In the experiment, the acceleration was measured at various height on the silo column and floor and by doing so, not only could the variation of the amplitude of the quaking be observed, but also the propagation of waves could clearly be seen. Through an overview of recent research on this subject, it is shown that the current silo quaking is produced by slip-stick friction between the internal wall of silo and the granular material, i.e. coal.

실시간 온라인 석탄 성상분석은 효율적인 석탄 화력발전소 운영을 위해 반드시 필요한 기술이다. 온라인 석탄 성상분석 기술 개발을 위해 다변량 분석기법을 사용하여 확산 반사방식을 통해 얻은 석탄의 근적외선 스펙트럼과 석탄 성상(%)[수분, 회분, 휘발분, 고정탄소, 탄소, 수소, 질소, 산소, 황], 발열량(kcal/kg)간의 관계를 조사하였다. 현재 석탄 화력발전소에서 사용하는 40여종의 석탄에서 얻은 근적외선 스펙트럼을 전처리[2차 미분, MSC(multiplicative scatter correction)]를 통해 물리적 영향을 최소화하여 석탄 성상과의 관계를 PLS(partial least squares regression), PCA(principal component analysis)의 chemometrics 기법을 이용하여 정량 분석하였다. 분석 결과 본 기법을 통해 근적외선 스펙트럼으로 석탄 성상 중 회분, 질소 그리고 황을 제외한 나머지 성분에 대해 분석이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 PC(PLS component)의 값을 이용하여 석탄의 종류를 구별한 다음, 다변량 통계기법을 사용하여 정량 분석한 결과, 전체 석탄을 이용해서 정량 분석한 결과에 비해 비교적 좋은 결과를 얻었다. 수분, 발열량이 실시간으로 분석 가능하여 보다 효율적인 석탄 화력발전소 운영이 가능할 것으로 예상된다.

석탄화력발전소에서 저품위탄 연소시 통풍저항 변화로 인해 승압송풍기의 운전점에 영향을 주는 것을 분석하여 현재운전점 대비 실속시점을 예측하였다. 연료의 발열량이 낮을수록 통풍저항 증가 속도가 빨라지며, 통풍저항과 승압송풍기의 운전점과는 강한 상관관계가 있음을 확인하였다. 발열량이 낮을수록 통풍저항이 빨리 상승하며 이는 곧 승압송풍기의 운전점이 설계탄 대비해서 실속 한계운전점에 빨리 도달하게 된다. 이를 근거로 현재운전점 대비 한계운전점까지의 운전여유분과 발열량별 통풍저항 증가 속도를 계산하여 실속시점을 예측할 수 있어 송풍기 실속으로 인한 발전출력의 감소나 운전정지에 대비한 정비계획 수립 등 안정운전에 많은 도움이 될 것으로 예상한다.
