Low Nitrogen Burner Project for 50MW Coal-fired Unit in Kolentaro, Indonesia

Located in Sulawesi, Indonesia, Kolonteiro is the 11th largest island in the world with a population of over 20 million, but with a large share of mountainous terrain and poor resources at its disposal per capita. The only oil-fired power station currently available cannot meet the growing demand for electricity from the grid, and the problem of electricity constraint has become a stumbling block to economic development.

The ES900M light oil burner was selected for the project, with simple mechanical atomization nozzles and high-energy ignition method, and the combustion efficiency reached 99.9%. The programmable ignition system and flame failure protection device are used to ensure the personal safety of the operators. Unlike conventional operating conditions, the Columbus project is located near the ocean, with high humidity and high salt content, which means that the whole equipment will be exposed to hot and humid salt spray for a long time. The technical team of EBICO has taken into account the local conditions and focused more on corrosion resistance in the selection of burner materials, fans and motors.
