 ABOUT APCPL
 APCPL( Aravali Power Company Pvt. Ltd.) is a joint venture
of NTPC , HPGCL & IPGCL .
 The First unit was commissioned on 31st October, 2010.
 Present Working Capacity : 3x500 MW
 Future Provision : 2x660 MW
 Coal Source : Mahanadi Coalfield Ltd.
Eastern Coalfield Ltd.
Northern Coalfield Ltd.
 Water Source : Water from Jawahar Lal Nehru (JLN) feeder
canal
 Thermal Power Plant
 Thermal Power Plant is based on Rankine Cycle.
 Main Units of Thermal power Plant:

1. DM Water Plant
2. CHP (Coal Handling Plant)
3. AHP (Ash Handling Plant)
4. Boiler
5. Turbine & Generator
6. Fire Detection And Alarm System
THERMAL POWER PLANT
LAYOUT
 DM WATER PLANT
 The function of demineralization plant is to remove
dissolved salt by ion exchange method (chemical
method) and there by producing pure feed water for
boiler. The salts which make the water hard are
generally-chloride, carbonates, bi-carbonates,
silicates and phosphates of sodium, potassium, iron,
calcium and magnesium. In D M plant there are three
types of resin used for boiler feed water treatment
process –
 1. Cation exchange resin
 2. Anion exchange resin
 3. Mixed Bed resin
DM PLANT LAYOUT
 COAL HANDLING PLANT
 The coal handling plant (CHP) in a thermal power station
covers unloading of coal, its crushing, storage and filling of
boiler bunkers.
 Components:

• Unloading system
• Conveyor system • Crushing system
• Feeding system • Stacking system
• Magnetic separator/ metal detector
• Fire fighting system • Dust suppression system
• Dust extraction system

Wagon Bottom Open Unloading Wagon Tippler Unloading

 ASH HANDLING PLANT
 Ash handling system mainly design for the collection,
handling and disposal of bottom ash and fly ash from ESP
System to Silo area and operation of its associated systems i.e.
ash water, instrument air, conveying air and fluidizing air
system.
 BOILER
 Boiler or more specifically steam boiler is an essential part of
thermal power plant. 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.

 Types of Boiler
Fire Tube Boiler
Water Tube Boiler
 TYPES OF BOILER
Fire Tube Boiler Water Tube Boiler
 TURBINE AND GENERATOR
 A steam turbine is a device that extracts thermal energy from
pressurized steam and uses it to do mechanical work on a
rotating output shaft.

Types Of Turbine
HPT (High Pressure Turbine)
IPT (Intermediate Pressure Turbine)
LPT (Low Pressure Turbine)
Arrangement Of Turbines
 Turbo Generator
 A turbo generator is the combination of a turbine directly
connected to an electric generator for the generation of electric
power.
It generate 21K Voltage.

 Main Parts of Generator

Stator Frame Stator Core
Rotor Stator Windings
 Fire Detection
 Fire detectors are designed to detect one or more of the three
characteristics of firesmoke, heat and flame.

 Type of Fire Detectors :

1. Smoke Detector 2. Fire Detector 3. Heat Detector

4. Linear Heat Sensing Cable

 Fire Protection System
 Thermal Power Plants are characterized by their complex
overall system made of a range of different operating modules.
In addition to these conditions such as extremely hot surfaces,
lubricating oils and coal and coal dust pose huge fire risks

Types Of Fire Protection

1. HVWSS ( High Velocity Water Spray System)
2. MVWSS (Medium Velocity Water Spray System)
3. Fixed Foam system
4.Gas Extinguishing System
Application Area of High Velocity Water
Spray System
1. All oil filled Generator transformers and its surrounding areas.
2. Unit auxiliary transformers.
3. Unit transformers.
4. Station auxiliary transformers.
5. Stand-by maintenance transformers.
6. Bus reactors.
7. CHP auxiliary transformers.
8. AHP auxiliary transformers.
9. Boiler's burner and its surroundings.
 Application Area of Medium Velocity Water
Spray System
1. Cable gallery and cable spreader room in the main plant area
2. ESP control room
3. Switch yard room
4. Ash handling plant area
5. Coal handling plant area
6. Water treatment plant area
7. Circulating water pump area
8. Sea water intake area
9. Fuel oil pump house
10. Switch yard
 Foam Fire Protection system

 Foam Fire Protection System is fire suppression system. Its

success is mainly depends on proper mixing of foam
concentrate along with air and water, to form a uniform foam
blanket to extinguish flame.
 Gas Extinguishing System

 Application Area
Control room of the main plant ,The hidden area under the false
ceiling. Computer room and data storage room. Control
Equipment Room
