BHEL Expedites Work on Karanpura STPP

The Bharat Heavy Electricals (BHEL) has expedited work on Karanpura Super Thermal Power Project.

 

BHEL implemented an innovative boiler cleaning process for coal-fired thermal units at NTPC’s three x 660 MW North Karanpura Super Thermal Power Project, being executed by BHEL on EPC basis.

 

The boiler commissioning cycle will reduce from 100 days to 80 days by successfully completing the main ‘boiler acid cleaning’ without its light-up by using an Auxiliary Boiler.

 

This innovative method is a major change in the commissioning process followed so far and will aid in early synchronisation of the unit.

 

Significantly, the process now successfully proven at the North Karanpura project has paved the way to be adopted at other projects being executed by BHEL.

 

BHEL has successfully commissioned 23 boiler packages and 19 turbine packages in the ratings of 660 MW, 700 MW and 800 MW.

 

BHEL has so far contracted 58 boilers and 53 turbine packages of supercritical sets including many on EPC mode.
