The most prevalent coal-fired power generation system is a pulverized fuel boiler. Currently, the majority of coal combustion takes place in pulverized-fuel boilers. In such systems, one of the goals of the pulverizer coal is to reduce coal particle size so that 70–80 percent passes through a 200 mesh (75 m) screen. Pulverizing can be achieved in a variety of methods, including in a bowl mill using huge steel balls. The pulverizer's air flow separates the coal, conveying the fine particles from the mill to the boiler and separating the bigger particles for further grinding or transmission to the reject stream. The lithotypes of pyrite, hard rock, and harder coal are typically found among the pulverization rejects. The ability of the pulverize to handle the coal without decreasing the output of pulverized fuel for the boiler installation is a factor that utilities consider when purchasing coal.
COVID-19 Impact analysis
- COVID-19 has currently hindered the growth of the power industry. This is partly due to the fact that an increasing number of countries are implementing statewide curfews to prevent the sickness from spreading further. This slowdown is mostly due to economic downturns, which have resulted in lower demand for pulverised fuel boilers from a variety of end-user sectors.
- Due to the global shutdown and challenges along the supply chain, the spread of COVID-19 is anticipated to have a negative impact on pulverised fuel boiler manufacturers. The cost of obtaining raw materials is also projected to rise as a result of the supply shortfall, which is expected to cause order closures to be delayed.
Top Impacting Factors
The most prevalent coal-fired power generation system is a pulverised fuel boiler. The fastest-growing source of energy demand is electricity. Developed countries' energy consumption continues to rise, boosting demand in developing countries. The demand for energy is being pushed up by rise in incomes, greater industrial output, and developments in the services sector. The cost of a Pulverized Fuel Boiler varies significantly due to design factors and differing degrees of after-sales service. Operating pressure, operating temperature, kind of firing, and desired efficiency are all aspects to consider. The requirement for high pressure and temperature raises the boiler's cost. Boilers are critical components of power plants. Many Pulverized Fuel Boiler manufacturers see the replacement and upgrade of outdated equipment as a lucrative opportunity.
