Examples <strong>of</strong> <strong>cogeneration</strong> projects implemented <strong>in</strong> Asia 79<br />

2.6.1 Description <strong>of</strong> the <strong>cogeneration</strong> project<br />

The <strong>cogeneration</strong> project was developed <strong>in</strong> two identical phases. Tak<strong>in</strong>g the environmental<br />

concerns <strong>in</strong>to consideration, natural gas-fired comb<strong>in</strong>ed cycle <strong>cogeneration</strong> option was<br />

reta<strong>in</strong>ed which m<strong>in</strong>imizes the level <strong>of</strong> exhaust emissions <strong>and</strong> reduces the cool<strong>in</strong>g water<br />

requirement by half <strong>in</strong> comparison with a conventional power plant. Each phase <strong>in</strong>cluded 3<br />

gas turb<strong>in</strong>es (35 MW each), a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) to recover heat from<br />

the flue gases <strong>of</strong> the gas turb<strong>in</strong>es, a steam turb<strong>in</strong>e <strong>of</strong> 50 MW capacity, <strong>and</strong> the auxiliary<br />

equipment necessary to produce <strong>and</strong> distribute the generated electricity <strong>and</strong> steam to<br />

<strong>in</strong>dustrial customers <strong>and</strong> the utility grid (see Figure 2.7 for details). In each phase, 150 MW <strong>of</strong><br />

electricity <strong>and</strong> 145 tons/hour <strong>of</strong> process steam were generated at two different pressures<br />

required by the <strong>in</strong>dustries: 60 tons/hour at 52 bar <strong>and</strong> 425°C, <strong>and</strong> 85 tons/hour at 19 bar 250°<br />

C. The high pressure steam is taken directly from the boiler. The medium pressure steam is<br />

bled <strong>of</strong>f the steam turb<strong>in</strong>e, with a back up provided by the high pressure steam supply through<br />

a turb<strong>in</strong>e by-pass fully equipped with a pressure reduc<strong>in</strong>g <strong>and</strong> desuperheat<strong>in</strong>g station.<br />

Figure 2.7 Comb<strong>in</strong>ed cycle <strong>cogeneration</strong> (Phase 1) at the Industrial Estate<br />

The <strong>cogeneration</strong> plant assures electricity, steam <strong>and</strong> dem<strong>in</strong>eralized water supply to several<br />

petrochemical <strong>and</strong> downstream <strong>in</strong>dustries. Customers have signed long-term contracts to<br />

take or pay for a m<strong>in</strong>imum <strong>of</strong>f-take quantity <strong>of</strong> steam. The steam price has three components:<br />

capacity, energy <strong>and</strong> transportation. Steam is supplied to the customers with an availability<br />

guarantee. A <strong>part</strong> <strong>of</strong> the electricity generated is sold to the customers whose price has<br />

capacity <strong>and</strong> energy components, the rema<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g amount is sold to the utility grid accord<strong>in</strong>g to<br />

the tariff set for small power producers.<br />
