| Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited (BHEL) has commissioned 250 MW unit based on eco-friendly circulating fluidised bed combustion (CFBC) technology, using low grade coal (lignite) as the primary fuel. The 250 MW lignite based thermal unit is the second unit to be commissioned at Bhavnagar Energy Company Limited (BECL)'s 2x250 MW thermal power project, located at Padva village in Bhavnagar District of Gujarat. The first unit of the project was commissioned earlier in May 2016. The project is based on CFBC technology – an environment friendly technology to utilise India's large resource of low grade, high moisture lignite. BHEL has the unique distinction of engineering, supply, erection and commissioning of four units of India's largest capacity CFBC boilers of 250 MW rating, including the two units at Bhavnagar. BHEL's scope of work in the contract envisaged design, engineering, manufacture, supply, erection and commissioning of boilers, steam turbines and generators along with associated auxiliaries and electricals, controls & instrumentation (C&I) and electrostatic precipitators (ESPs). Earlier in the state of Gujarat, BHEL has executed the 4x125 MW Surat Lignite Power project in Surat district, also involving CFBC technology. CFBC boilers are highly fuel flexible and can burn a wide variety of fuels, including lignite, efficiently and are highly environment friendly with very low pollutant emissions. |
