AN IPRP (INTEGRATED PYROLYSIS REGENERATED PLANT) MICROSCALE DEMONSTRATIVE UNIT IN CENTRAL ITALY

摘要

The Integrated Pyrolysis Regenerated Plant (IPRP) concept is based on a Gas Turbine (GT) fuelled by pyrogas produced in a rotary kiln slow pyrolysis reactor; pyrolysis process byproduct, char, is used to provide the thermal energy required for pyrolysis. An IPRP demonstration unit based on an 80 kW_E microturbine was built at the Terni facility of the University of Perugia. The plant is made of a slow pyrolysis rotary kiln pyrolyzer, a wet scrubbing section for tar and water vapor removal, a micro gas turbine and a treatment section for the exhaust gases. This paper describes the plant layout and expected performance with different options for waste heat recovery.
