A thermal power station is a plant where water is heated, until it turns into
steam which drives the steam engine. When it runs through the system it is
condensed and turned to water state again and is re-heated. It goes through the
same system as are cycling process. On the other hand Dendro thermal power
is the production of electricity from wood

WHAT IS BOILER :
Boiler is an energy conversion device, the energy input to the boiler with the
fuel chemical energy, electrical energy, high-temperature flue gas heat, etc., and
after boiler conversion, exporting has a certain heat of steam, hot water or
organic heat carrier . The original meaning refers to the pot on the fire heated
the water container, fuel burning furnace refers to the place, including the
boiler and furnace boiler two parts. Boiler to generate hot water or steam
directly for industrial production and people's lives to provide the necessary
heat, steam power plant can also be converted to mechanical energy, or through
the generator to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. Boiler to
provide hot water as hot water boilers, mainly for domestic, industrial
production is also a small amount of applications. Steam boiler as steam
boilers, often referred to as boiler, used for thermal power plants, ships,
locomotives and industrial and mining enterprises.

Definition of Boiler
Steam boiler or simply a boiler is basically a closed vessel into which water is
heated until the water is converted into steam at required pressure. This is most
basic definition of boiler.
Advantages
1) It is quite compact in construction.
2) Fluctuation of steam demand can be met easily.
3) It is also quite cheap.
Disadvantages
1) As the water required for operation of the boiler is quite large, it requires
long time for rising steam at desired pressure.
2) As the water and steam are in same vessel the very high pressure of
steam is not possible.
3) The steam received from fire tube boiler is not very dry.

ESP Operation
Electrostatic precipitators use electrostatic charges to separate particles from a
dirty gas stream. High voltage, direct current electrodes are used to establish a
strong electric field. This field (known as a corona) delivers a (usually)
negative charge to particles as they pass through the device. This charge forces
the particles onto the walls of collection plates or tubes. These collection
surfaces (or collection electrodes) are then rapped, vibrated, or washed with
water to dislodge the particles, which fall into a hopper to be disposed.
COOLING TOWER
A cooling tower is a heat rejection device which rejects waste heat to the
atmosphere through the cooling of a water stream to a lower temperature.
Cooling towers may either use the evaporation of water to remove process heat
and cool the working fluid to near the wet-bulb air temperature or, in the case
of closed circuit dry cooling towers, rely solely on air to cool the working fluid
to near the dry-bulb air temperature.
Common applications include cooling the circulating water used in oil
refineries, petrochemical and other chemical plants, thermal power stations and
HVAC systems for cooling buildings. The classification is based on the type of
air induction into the tower: the main types of cooling towers are natural draft
and induced draft cooling towers.
Cooling towers vary in size from small roof-top units to very large hyperboloid
structures (as in the adjacent image) that can be up to 200 metres (660 ft) tall
and 100 metres (330 ft) in diameter, or rectangular structures that can be over
40 metres (130 ft) tall and 80 metres (260 ft) long. The hyperboloid cooling
towers are often associated with nuclear power plants, although they are also
used to some extent in some large chemical and other industrial plants.
Although these large towers are very prominent, the vast majority of cooling
towers are much smaller, including many units installed on or near buildings to
discharge heat from air conditioning.
CHIMNEY
A chimney is a structure which provides ventilation for hot flue gases or smoke
from a boiler, stove, furnace or fireplace to the outside atmosphere. Chimneys
are typically vertical, or as near as possible to vertical, to ensure that the gases
flow smoothly, drawing air into the combustion in what is known as the stack,
or chimney, effect. The space inside a chimney is called a flue. Chimneys may
be found in buildings, steam locomotives and ships. In the United States, the
term smokestack (colloquially, stack) is also used when referring to locomotive
chimneys or ship chimneys, and the term funnel can also be used.
The height of a chimney influences its ability to transfer flue gases to the
external environment via stack effect. Additionally, the dispersion of pollutants
at higher altitudes can reduce their impact on the immediate surroundings. In
the case of chemically aggressive output, a sufficiently tall chimney can allow
for partial or complete self-neutralization of airborne chemicals before they
reach ground level. The dispersion of pollutants over a greater area can reduce
their concentrations and facilitate compliance with regulatory limits.
