Thermal Power Plant: Thermal Power Plant Classification

Thermal power plants are classified by the type of fuel and the type of prime mover installed.. By fuel. Nuclear power plants use a nuclear reactor 's heat to operate a steam turbine generator. About 20% of electric generation in the USA is produced by nuclear power plants. Fossil fuelled power plants may also use a steam turbine generator or in the case of natural gas fired plants may use a Get price

Types of thermal power plant: Fossil

In many countries, such plants provide most of the electrical energy used, or the 'baseload'. A fossil fuel power plant uses a turbine that turns an electrical generator. The turbine may be turned by steam, gas or — as in some small isolated plants — an internal combustion engine. Power plants produce by Get price

Types of Emissions from Thermal Power Plants

Coal fired thermal power plants are one of the main contributors for atmospheric pollution and greenhouse gases. Emissions that come from these plants could be categorized into three different categories: Gaseous emissions Carbon Dioxide, Carbon Monoxide, Sulphur Dioxide and Nitrogen Dioxide which lead to global warming and acid rain.

4. Bioenergy conversion technologies.

There are three basic types of charcoal-making: a) internally heated (by controlled combustion of the raw material), b) externally heated (using fuelwood or fossil fuels), and c) hot circulating gas (retort or converter gas, used for the production of chemicals). Internally heated charcoal kilns are the most common form of charcoal kiln. Get price
