In this study, a water
tube type steam boiler has been designed to burn refuse derived fuel (RDF) and
coal together. The combustion process was carried out in a water pipe type
steam boiler and the heat energy of the fuel was used to evaporate and superheat
the water in the boiler. And the superheated water steam has entered in the
Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system, and the system produce superheated
N-pentane steam for its turbine to produce 2.0 MWe. The designed water pipe
steam boiler has been operated as a fluidized bed combustion system. The properties
of water pipe steam boiler system have been explained in detail in this
article. Detailed investigations have been done using RDF and coal co-combustion
in a water pipe circulating type fluidized bed combustion system. Furthermore the
cost analysis of the designed water pipe steam boiler components has also been
done.
