Introduction

NNTPS is India's first 500 MW Lignite Fired Boiler, consisting of two units commissioned in 2019 and 2021, featuring a Drumless Boiler and a Tangential pulverised fuel firing system. The turbine-generator package is a 500 MW multi-cylinder system with various pressure and temperature specifications, supported by a robust lignite handling and ash collection system. The plant's water requirements are met through a raw water supply and a demineralization plant.

NEYVELI NEW THERMAL POWER STATION 2X500 MW

NNTPS is India’s first 500 MW Lignite Fired Boiler, it comprises of two


units. Unit 1 was commissioned on 28th December, 2019 and Unit 2 was
commissioned on 10th February, 2021. The salient features of the NNTPP Boiler
are it is a Drumless Boiler and operates in Sub-critical pressure and once-through
tower type boiler. Boiler Maximum Continuous Rating (BMCR) is 1600 T/hr at
179 Ksc, 540°C. The type of Lignite firing system is Tangential, pulverised fuel
firing system with 8 no’s Beater wheel mills with each have a capacity of 80 T/hr.
For removal of bottom ash, After Burning Grate (ABG) and Submerged Slag
Conveyor (SSC) System are used. The type of draft used for the boiler is Balanced
Draft System consisting of 2 units of FD and ID Fans (2 X 60 % of duty), along
with 1 RAPH and SCAPH. Electrostatic Precipitators have 4 Pass and 12 Electric
field in each pass with collection efficiency of 99.70% and exit SPM level of
50mg/Nm3. Assisted Circulation is used till the boiler reaches 40% of the load
using Boiler Circulating Water Pump(BCWP). The height of the Boiler extends130
meters into the sky and humongous structural weight is about 62000T.

Similarly the salient features of the Turbine-Generator package is it’s a 500


MW multi cylinder, horizontal, tandem compounded, Re-Heat, Regenerative,
condensing & throttle governing. The HP Turbine has 17 reaction stages, double
casing, single flow, pressure of 170 ksc, 537˚C at a flow rate of 1457 T/hr. The IP
Turbine is Double flow, 2X12 stages, double casing, pressure of 40.6 Ksc,
withstands a temperature of 565˚C, at flow rate of 1302 T/hr. The LP Turbine is
double flow 2X6 stages & double casing, pressure 7.08 ksc, Temperature 308˚C,
Flow 1081 T/hr.

Generator is 500 MW, 2 pole, 3-phase system with cylindrical rotor, water cooled
stator, Hydrogen cooled rotor, Class F insulation, Brushless Static Excitation
System, rated at 588 MVA, 21 kV, 16.17 kA, 0.85 pf lag.

For supporting the boiler and turbine operation, the balance of package
system supports it to maintain stability and reliability of the plant. The Lignite
Handling system consists of 2 streams of capacity of 2400 T/hr, each stock yard
has a capacity of 2,34,000 T and capacity of closed shed is 70,000 T. The fly ash
generated is collected by Ash Handling System and has a capacity of 86 T/hr,
Bottom ash collection design of 20 T/hr. The water needs of the plant are fulfilled
by Raw Water from Fertilizer lake at 3800 m3/hr with help of 4 CW Pumps. The
makeup of water is done by DM Plant which has a water generation capacity of
125 m3/hr.
