Wear-resistant products are commonly used in several key areas of coal-fired power plants due to the harsh operating conditions and the abrasive nature of coal. Wear-resistant materials are crucial for thermal power generation applications, particularly those involving worn fields.
The wear resistance ensures longevity and reliability in harsh environments, making these materials suitable for a variety of applications, including wearable technology.Here are some specific parts where our products are typically applied.
These applications collectively help enhance the efficiency, reliability, and lifespan of coal-fired power plant equipment while reducing operational costs.
If you have any specific part you want to discuss further, feel free to ask!
1. Coal Handling Systems:
Chutes and Bunkers: These areas experience high wear from moving coal. Wear-resistant linings, such as ceramic or hardened steel, are often used to protect these surfaces.
Conveyor Belts and Rollers: Components of coal conveyors can benefit from wear-resistant coatings to prolong their lifespan and reduce maintenance costs.
2. Crushers and Pulverizers:
The grinding parts of crushers and pulverizers are subject to significant wear from the coal and any impurities it may contain.
Hardfacing and wear-resistant inserts are used to enhance durability.
3. Ash Handling Systems_Hoppers and Conveyors:
These systems handle high volumes of abrasive materials. Wear-resistant linings help prevent damage and reduce downtime for repairs.
4. Boiler Components_Furnaces and Heat Exchangers:
The areas where coal is burned and where ash accumulates can experience wear due to thermal and abrasive processes. Applying wear-resistant materials helps maintain efficiency.
5. Air Preheaters:
Components in this section can suffer wear from high-velocity flue gases and particulates. Protective coatings can help reduce wear and extend equipment life.
6. Pipelines:
Transporting ash and coal slurry through pipelines can result in erosion. Wear-resistant linings in these pipelines help minimize loss and maintenance needs.
7. Fan Blades and Ducts:
Fans used for airflow control in the combustion process can experience erosion. Special coatings or use of advanced materials can improve their resistance to wear.
