Abstract

Abstract A coal gasification composite power generating plant has a coal gasification plant (60) and a composite power generating plant (61). The coal gasification plant has a low-pressure steam generator for recovering heat from the furnace wall of a pressurized fluidized bed type coal gasification furnace (3), and a high-pressure steam generator (7, 47) disposed at the outlet of the gasification furnace and adapted to recover heat from the unrefined gas coming from the gasification furnace. The composite power generating plant includes a gas turbine (17) which uses the gas generated in the gasification plant as the fuel gas, a boiler (20) for recovering heat from the exhaust gas of the gas turbine, and high-pressure and low-pressure steam turbines (42, 43) which operate with the steam generated by the boiler. The high-pressure steam generated in the high-pressure steam generator is introduced to the high-pressure steam turbine, while the steam generated in the low-pressure steam generator is introduced into the low-pressure steam turbine, thereby to effectively recover the energy.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 206 words
A coal gasification composite power generating plant comprising: a coal gasification plant having a coal gasification furnace of pressurized fluidized bed type, in which coal is gasified at a pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure, a first steam generator for recovering heat from the gas generated in said gasification furnace thereby to cool said gas, a second steam generator disposed at the outlet of said coal gasification furnace and adapted to recover heat from the unrefined gas coming out of said gasification furnace, and a gas refining apparatus for refining the unrefined gas which has been cooled through heat recovery by said second steam generator; and a composite power generating plant including a gas turbine which operates using the gas generated by said gasification plant as the fuel, a boiler for recovering heat wasted from said gas turbine, and high-pressure and low-pressure steam turbines which operate with the steam generated by said boiler; wherein the improvement comprises that the steam generated in said second steam generator has a pressure higher than that of the steam generated in said first steam generator, and the low-pressure steam and the high-pressure steam from said steam generators are introduced, respectively, to said low-pressure steam turbine and said high-pressure steam turbine.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 206 words
A coal gasification composite power generating plant comprising: a coal gasification plant having a coal gasification furnace of pressurized fluidized bed type, in which coal is gasified at a pressure higher than the atmospheric pressure, a first steam generator for recovering heat from the gas generated in said gasification furnace thereby to cool said gas, a second steam generator disposed at the outlet of said coal gasification furnace and adapted to recover heat from the unrefined gas coming out of said gasification furnace, and a gas refining apparatus for refining the unrefined gas which has been cooled through heat recovery by said second steam generator; and a composite power generating plant including a gas turbine which operates using the gas generated by said gasification plant as the fuel, a boiler for recovering heat wasted from said gas turbine, and high-pressure and low-pressure steam turbines which operate with the steam generated by said boiler; wherein the improvement comprises that the steam generated in said second steam generator has a pressure higher than that of the steam generated in said first steam generator, and the low-pressure steam and the high-pressure steam from said steam generators are introduced, respectively, to said low-pressure steam turbine and said high-pressure steam turbine.
