Jeffrey Rader Corporation selected as supplier of Alternative Fuel Boiler Feed System
Woodruff, SC - Jeffrey Rader Corporation, a leading equipment supplier of material handling equipment to the energy and forest products industries, has been awarded a significant contract to supply an alternative fuel material handling and boiler feed system in Jeonju, South Korea.
The system will be part of a 100MW cogeneration plant that will supply power and process steam for the Korean newsprint mill. 'This is an innovative project, the first of its kind in South Korea.' says Ted Gentile, Manager of International Sales for the company. The Jeonju Paper Mill will replace an older coal fired boiler using a grate fired system with a bubbling fluidized bed design which is capable of firing a mixture of alternative waste fuels consisting of bark, Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) pellets, DIP sludge and plastics rejects from the mill’s recycled fiber process
Delivery of this state-of-the-art alternative fuel feeding system for the paper mill begins in March 2009, and it is anticipated to be put into full operation by the end of 2009. The Jeffrey Rader supplied material handling and boiler feed system will supply more than 30 tons per hour of waste fuels to the BFB Boiler. The Jeffrey Rader system uses pneumatic conveyors to transport fuel to a receiving hopper which distributes fuel into two boiler house mounted storage silos. Fuel is then reclaimed with screw reclaimers and distributed and metered into four infeed points around the boiler with a high level of reliability and accuracy. “Because of the wide range of acceptable fuels, the system must be very flexible in its design as well as robust and reliable since it provides 100% of the fuel to this boiler” says Gentile.
Supplying equipment to the forest products, pulp & paper, mining, aggregates, coal, and the power generation industry Jeffrey Rader Corporation is capable of offering single piece equipment or engineered systems.
