High Efficiency Blast Furnace Gas Firing Power Plant

Fuyuki Soma, Hideki Takano, Tokujiro Fujikawa, Kenzo Yamaguchi
Synopsis :
Conservation of energy is one of the most important problems which we are confronted with. We have so far accomplished remarkable records in devising measures for a power generating plant geared to product 125 000 kW of electricity from blast-furnace gas (BFG) was put on stream at Chiba Works. The details of this new plant are described by referring to No. 3 power generating plant which was installed at West Power Plant at Chiba Works. Achievement of the highest efficiency level in the world at a BFG firing power generating plant was made possible by implementation of the BFG heater, forced draft system and others. By the adoption of these systems, plant net efficiency can attain a high value equivalent to those at advanced supercritical pressure heavy oil firing power plants. With this in-plant power generating unit, Chiba Works is now 75% self sufficient in electricity.
