SYSTEM OPTIMIZATION

Maximizing Efficiency with AdvX® Solutions

LJUNGSTRÖM’s AdvX® HRI and AdvX® BFP systems can improve your plant’s operational efficiency and reduce costs. By leveraging innovative heat recovery and energy-saving technologies, these systems offer flexible, customizable solutions that address heat rate and feedwater preheating challenges.

AdvX® HRI

Heat Rate Improvement

LJUNGSTRÖM’s AdvX® HRI System repurposes excess heat, enhancing efficiency and reducing costs with a flexible, plant-specific design.

  • Better Boiler Efficiency – Hotter combustion air saves fuel and cuts CO₂.
  • Stronger Emission Control – Cooler flue gas improves ash collection and lowers emissions.
  • Less Water Use – Cuts wet FGD water consumption by up to 50%.
  • Smaller Equipment – High-temp recovery reduces system size.

AdvX® BFP

Boiler Feedwater Preheat

The AdvX® BFP System reduces steam consumption for feedwater preheating by using recovered energy from the APH, enhancing heat rate and cutting fuel costs.

  • Lower Fuel Costs – Boosts boiler efficiency by 0.5% to 1.5%.
  • Optimized Energy Use – Reduces steam extraction from the turbine.
  • Enhanced System Performance – Includes bypass duct, control damper, heating upgrades, heat exchanger, and piping.

AdvX® HRI

Smarter Heat Recovery for Greater Efficiency

LJUNGSTRÖM’s AdvX® HRI System captures and repurposes excess heat from flue gas, optimizing efficiency and lowering costs. Designed for flexibility, it adapts to your plant’s setup, improving performance while reducing emissions and resource consumption.

Original APH

Before upgrade, flue gas heat is lost, limiting efficiency and increasing fuel costs.

Upgrade Example

System enhanced with new energy source while still delivering required combustion air preheat.

Improved Boiler Efficiency

  • Hotter combustion air boosts thermal performance
  • Reduces overall CO₂ emissions

Enhanced Emission Control

  • Cooler flue gas to ESP improves ash collection
  • Lowers particulate and mercury emissions
  • Helps meet stringent environmental regulations

Reduced Resource Consumption

  • Cooler flue gas to wet FGD cuts water use by up to 50%
  • Minimizes reliance on auxiliary heat recovery systems
  • Optimizes plant-wide energy efficiency

BOILER FEEDWATER PREHEAT

AdvX® BFP

Maximizing Efficiency
Through Smarter Heat Recovery

The AdvX® BFP System optimizes boiler feedwater preheating by optimizing recovered energy from the air preheater (APH) instead of relying on steam extraction from the low-pressure turbine. This reduced steam consumption enhances unit heat rate, and improves overall plant efficiency while lowering fuel costs.

Optimized Energy Use

Enhancing Heat Rate with Reduced Steam Dependency

  • Maximizes APH-recovered energy instead of turbine-extracted steam
  • Reduces operational strain on the low-pressure turbine.
  • Improves overall system efficiency

Lower Fuel Costs

Achieve Significant Savings with Improved Efficiency

  • Boiler efficiency gains
    0.5% to 1.5%
  • Reduces fuel consumption
    for long-term cost savings
  • Maximizes return on investment through smarter heat utilization

Advanced System Integration

Seamlessly Designed for Plant Adaptability

  • Includes bypass duct, control damper, and upgraded heating elements
  • Integrated BFP heat exchanger
    and optimized feedwater piping
