Technical FAQs

1. What is an AFBC boiler and why is it preferred in power plants?

AFBC (Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion) boilers burn fuel in a fluidized bed of inert particles. They offer better combustion efficiency, fuel flexibility, lower emissions, and improved heat transfer compared to conventional boilers.

2. What maintenance activities are typically performed during turbine overhauling?

Turbine overhauling includes rotor inspection, blade examination, bearing replacement, seal inspection, vibration analysis, alignment checks, and lubrication system maintenance to ensure optimal performance and reliability.

3. What is the role of an Electrostatic Precipitator (ESP) in a power plant?

An ESP removes particulate matter from flue gases before they are released into the atmosphere. It helps power plants comply with environmental regulations and reduces air pollution.

4. Why is predictive maintenance important in power plant operations?

Predictive maintenance uses vibration monitoring, thermography, oil analysis, and condition monitoring techniques to identify potential equipment failures before breakdowns occur, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

5. How does SAP PM support maintenance management in power plants?

SAP Plant Maintenance (SAP PM) helps manage work orders, preventive maintenance schedules, equipment history, spare inventory, maintenance costs, and asset reliability, enabling efficient plant maintenance planning and execution.
