Industrial Application off FIuidized-Bed Combustion—Saturated Steam Boiler (Georgetown University) Quarterly Technical Progress Report for the Period July-September 1978

摘要

In line with a determination by the Federal Government that a fluidized bed combustion process can efficiently convert the energy of coal to usable power in an environmentally acceptable manner, Georgetown University was awarded Letter Contract E(49-18)2461 by the then Energy Research and Development Administration (now Department of Energy - DOE) to construct and operate a demonstration plant. The Letter Contract was replaced by Contract EX-76-C-01-2461 on April 27, 1977. This report, which is the eighth quarterly progress report under the contract, reflects that significant progress which was made during the period on plant construction, boiler fabrication and erection, receipt and installation of prepurchased equipment, shop drawing review and approval, and facility redesign to meet requirements of equipment shop drawings. The report covers the period July through September, 1978.
