Power Coal Transportation and Storage:A Programming Analysis of Road and Rail Options

In this study, the transportation and storage problems for regional power coal allocation planning are formulated as transportation and storage problems to realize the minimization of the regional transportation and storage cost. An effective optimiza- tion model is proposed to solve transportation and storage prob- lems for regional power coal allocation planning, which has inter- active effect on multiple participants, such as regional power plants, coal transportation companies, logistics centers, and coal storage centers. A case study illustrates that the model and algo- rithm are more reasonable compared with the classic transporta- tion model, and the sensitivity analysis improves transportation and storage strategies for regional power coal allocation planning. Results demonstrate that this model can not only satisfy more of the actual requirements of the integral system but also offer more information to the decision-makers （DMs） for reference in favor of exalting decision-making quality.

Optimization of an Existing Coal-fired Power Plant with CO²Capture

Nowadays, the worsening environmental issue caused by CO2 emission is greatly aggravated by human activity. Many CO2 reduction technologies are under fast development. Among these, monoethanolamine (MEA) based CO2 capture technology has been paid great attention. However, when connecting the CO2 capture process with a coal-fired power plant, the huge energy and efficiency penalty caused by CO2 capture has become a serious problem for its application. Thus, it is of great significance to reduce the related energy consumption. Based on an existing coal-fired power plant, this paper proposes a new way for the decarburized retrofitting of the coal-fired power plant, which helps to improve the overall efficiency of the power plant with less energy and efficiency penalty. The decarburized retrofitting scheme proposed will provide a new route for the CO2 capture process in China.

Study on Coal Consumption Curve Fitting of the Thermal Power Based on Genetic Algorithm

Coal consumption curve of the thermal power plant can reflect the function relationship between the coal consumption of unit and load, which plays a key role for research on unit economic operation and load optimal dispatch. Now get coal consumption curve is generally obtained by least square method, but which are static curve and these curves remain unchanged for a long time, and make them are incompatible with the actual operation situation of the unit. Furthermore, coal consumption has the characteristics of typical nonlinear and time varying, sometimes the least square method does not work for nonlinear complex problems. For these problems, a method of coal consumption curve fitting of the thermal power plant units based on genetic algorithm is proposed. The residual analysis method is used for data detection;quadratic function is employed to the objective function;appropriate parameters such as initial population size, crossover rate and mutation rate are set;the unit’s actual coal consumption curves are fitted, and comparing the proposed method with least squares method, the results indicate that fitting effect of the former is better than the latter, and further indicate that the proposed method to do curve fitting can best approximate known data in a certain significance, and they can real-timely reflect the interdependence between power output and coal consumption.
