The 30 MWe biomass-fired power plant of PowerCrop situated in Russi, Ravenna.
The strict emission requirements of the project have been fulfilled using Best Available Technology, including AET Combustion System, AET Biomass Boiler, electrostatic precipitator (ESP), bag filter and NOx and CO catalysts.
The plant has been completed and commissioned in 2019.
The Biomass Boiler was designed for a fuel heat input of 88 MWt and generates live steam at 122 bara and 542°C. The Biomass Boiler has, at normal continuous rating, a fuel heat input of 84 MWt and the power plant then produces 30 MWe (gross).
The annual power production corresponds to the consumption of around 84,000 households, and the biomass-fired power plant provides a reduction of carbon emission of 117,000 tonnes of CO2/year.
E&IM has been significantly involved in project expediting and inspection activities representing SECI Energia.
