DESIGN REQUIREMENTS FOR CHP

            The sizing and selection of the vital equipment i.e., crushers,screens,paddle feeders etc. covered under the system shall be based on the following characteristics of coal and operation conditions :

  1. Two conveyors must be established (1W,1S) for smooth running of plant.
  2. Simultaneous running of both conveyors at rated capacity is essential.
  3. Round the clock operation of coal handling plant is essential.
  4. Coal delivered to the power station shall be of size :300 mm & below (Occasionally 1-2% coal of 400 mm lumps may be allowed.
