Detail Specification
6.2.2.1 Limestone Storage Svstem

(a) The crushed limestone of which grain size is 20 mm in average (max. 50mm) is
conveyed to the limestone silo by the existing limestone bucket elevators and
conveyors. The existing belt conveyor (l imestone belt conveyor 01-BC-04) transfers
the limestone to No. 1 limestone silo. This limestone conveyor -BC-04 shall be
modified or replaced with new one of the same capacity completely, in order to
supply limestone to both NO.1 Limestone Silo (existing) and NO.2 Limestone Silo
(to be supplied by Unit 2 Contract). The Conveyor shall be reversible. The
construction time shall be completed within a week, not to affect th limestone
supply to Unit 1. In case of modification of the existing conveyo the warranty
period for it shall be two (2) years even though it contains the equipment and parts
supplied in Unit 1 Contract.
(b) The existing system upstream of the bucket elevator is so designed that the block of
limestone is unloaded by the limestone unloader from barges (300to n/ship) at the
jetty and transported to a limestone silo by the conveyors and the bucket elevators
through a limestone crusher for four (4) hours .
(c) Void
(d) The conveyors have been designed , manufactured and constructed to prevent ingress
of rain and emission of fine limestone particles.
(e) The existing equipment to remove effectively detonators and scrap iron is installed
on the conveyor system between the limestone receiving hopper and limestone
crusher.
(
The block of the limestone is crushed by the existing limestone crusher installed
between the limestone unloader and the limestone silo.
(g) The existing limestone crusher is designed , manufactured and constructed to prevent
vibration , noise and emission of fine lmestone particles under all operating
conditions.
(h) The amount of the
limstone
is measured with the limestone weighing measure.
6-2-3
(j) One (l) silo (N o .2 Limestone Silo) to be
installd
nearby the existing limestone silo

and one (1) limestone weigh feeder shall be supplied. The limestone shall be fed by

As the hot flue gas enters the absorber and passes through the absorbing section, the
flue gas shall be quenched to saturation and sulfur dioxide shall be removed.
The flue gas shall pass through the absorbing section, thereby assuring optimum
liquid-gas contact, hence completing the sulfur dioxide removal process.
(c) After completing the sulfur dioxide capture , the flue gas shall flow into the mist
eliminator located in the flue downstream of or in the up most position of the
absorber and the water droplets shall be collected on the mist eliminator.
(d) The absorbing slurry shall be stored in the lower section of the absorber module
which is referred to as the absorbing slurry tank.
(e) Fresh limestone slurry shall be added to the absorber in order to control recycle
slurry pH. The agitators ofthe absorbing slurry tank shall make the solid float in the
absorbing slurry.
(f) The sulphur dioxide removal process shall also involve an enforced oxidation system.
This oxidation system shall force the calcium sulfite (CaS03' 112 H 20) formed
through the S02 removal process to be oxidized to calcium sulfate (CaS04 . 2H20).
One (1) oxidation air blower having 50 % ofthe required capacity shall be supplied
and one (1) ofthe existing three (3) blowers shall be employed for Unit No. 2. The

auxiliary power consumption test shall be conducted by the Contractor to verify the
guaranteed or specified values ofthe equipment, in accordance with the requirements
ofClause 2. 1.1 3.
(b) Auxiliary power consumption test are specified in Clause 6.3.6.
6.3 .5 .2 Diesulohurized Flue Gas
(a) The Performance tests at site shall include the measurement and evaluation
demonstration ofthe following at 100 % Rated Output:
anor
(i) Desulphurization Eciency

Desulphurization efficiency at stack inlet shall be confirmed to meet the
guaranteed value of not less than 90 %.
S02 concentration in the flue gas , as measured at the approved representative
points selected by results oftraverses at FGD inlet and stack inlet.
Desulphurization efficiency is calculated by the following equation.
T)
={(Si-So)/Si}
where
100
= Desulphurization efficincy(%)
Si = S02 values at FGD inlet (kglh) on a dry gas basis
So = S02 values at stack inlet (kglh) on a dry gas basis
(ii) S02 Concentration at Stack lnlet

S02 concentration at stack inlet shall be confirmed to meet the guaranteed value of
not more than 500 mglm 3 (dry base , at 100 kP a, 298K).
S02 concentration in the flue gas, as measured at the approved representative
points selected by results oftraverses at FGD inlet and stack inlet.
(iii) Water Droplet Content
Water droplet content in the f1 ue gas , as measured at the approved representative
points selected by results oftraverses at mist eliminator outle t.
Water droplet content shall be confirmd to meet the guaranteed valu ofnot more
than 150 mglm 3N (dry base).
6-3-24
(iv) Flue Gas Temperature at Stack Inlet

Flue gas temperature, as measured at the approved representative points selected
by results oftraverses at stack inlet.
Flue gas temperature at stack inlet shall be confirmed to meet the guaranteed value
of not less than 91 0 C. It shall be proved by the theoretical calculation with the
temperature at stack inlet that the temperature at stack outlet is not less than 90 oC.
6.3.5 .3 Bv-oroduct Gvosum
By-product gypsum composition and quality shall be confirmed to meet the following
guaranteed values between 100 % Rated Output and 20% Rated Output:
Value, Description
Parameter
Pu rity (CaS04' 2H2 0)
Not less than 95 % (dry basis)
Particle size (Mean Particle Size)
Not less than 50 micron meter
Moisture content
Not more than 10 %
pH value
5 to 8
6 .3 .5 .4 Other Items ofPerformance Guarantee

(a) Other Items of Performance Guarantee shall be confirmed to meet the following
guaranteed values at 100 % Rated Output:
(i) Limestone/removal sulfur dioxide ratio
The ratio is calculated by the following equation.
Limestone/ removal sulfur dioxide ratio = Tc / (Tc - Co)
where Tc = total calcium concentration in absorbing slurry (mol/l)
Co = calcium carbonate concentration in absorbing slurry
(mo l/l)
(ii) Limestone consumption (1)
(iii) Make-up water consumption (t/h)

6.3.7 Final Acceptance

6.3.7.1 General
(a) The Contractor shall caY out inspection work prior to expiry of the waanty period
pursuant to Clause 2.1.15 and shall include the cost required in his Bid price.
(b) All defective work found during the inspection work shall be remedied free of charge
by the Contractor under the terms of the guarantee of the Contract. The costs of the
inspection work and replacement of any defective item shall be bome by the
Contractor. The Contractor shall submit to EVN an inspection schedule for approval
prior to the work.
(c) A Il inspection work will be witnessed by EVN. The Contractor shall prepare adequate
records , including a final report, of the inspection work and shall submit records to
EVN before issue ofFinal Acceptance Certificate.
(d) The Contractor shall submit the number and grade of personnel who wi lI be involved
in their specified inspection work and shalI state separately from those shown for
construction and commissioning work.
(e) As for the findings ofthe inspection, it may be necessary to operate the plant (either
individual system or complete unit) in order to demonstrate that the replacement of
parts or adjustment made during the inspection work are satisfactory. The time and
