Mission Energy Foundation takes privilege to announce yet another initiative for the power sector with its 5th year of sucessful organising the Conference + Expo + Awards WATER OPTIMISATION - 2023 which is intended to provice a forum to meet and discuss the science and applications to improve power generation and reduce specific water consuption through best practices in water efficiency as well as technological efforts.
India’s electricity generation will increase significantly from now onwards till the mid of this century, which will imply a much higher standard of living. India’s electricity generation doubles between 2015 and 2030, and again increases by 2.17 times between 2030 and 2050. The increasing electricity generation will also mean increased pressure on India’s water resources. The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC) has come up with the rules for the power sector, which mandates that all power plants have to switch their once-through cooling system into recirculating cooling technology, which is an efficient cooling technology and limit the water consumption from India’s power plants. Ministry of Environment and Forest has taken stringent steps to control environment and water pollution. MoEF has recently issued notification for the consumption of water usage and emission standards within thermal power plants. Based on the notification issued by MoEF, all the existing thermal power plants are expected to reduce specific water consumption up to 3.5 m3/MWH. All the new power plants that are proposed to be established after 1 January 2017 are required to use a maximum of 2.5 m3/MWH as specific water consumption and achieve zero liquid discharge (ZLD).
A close nexus lies between water and energy production. Water is needed for energy production, and in turn, energy is utilized for pumping, conveying and treating water. Water is used to extract and produce energy, refine and process fuels, transportation and storage of electric power. With the rising scarcity of water, energy production too is facing a shrinking supply of freshwater due to the mounting cost of water along with growing pollution of water sources. For a country, scarce with water resources, saving each drop of water matters. India will greatly benefit from the move from once through cooling technology towards cooling tower based cooling systems. For extreme water stress scenarios, dry cooling could also become a reality. There is additional expense to move from OTC technology to CT technology, and further to dry cooling technology. This additional expense could be argued as the shadow price of scarce water.
81% of the total installed capacity of thermal power plants is based on subcritical technology, though this is set to change as all the new coal power plants in India are expected to be supercritical. Therefore, a huge amount of water is required in coal processing & handling, cooling purposes, and ash handling in thermal power plants, making them water guzzlers. This water consumption in Indian coal primarily based thermal power plant is around 1100 million m3, which is far over our neighbor country China. That has power generation capability is around 2.5 times than India. In Indian power industries have huge potential to cut back water consumption by adopting new techniques or by modifying the current techniques with minor changes.
If we analyse the water requirements in a TPPs, various requirements are for coal handling, ash handling, production of steam, condensing the steam, maintenance of green belt, firefighting, and domestic purposes. Most importantly, major requirement for water is for cooling purposes and amounts to 80-90 per cent of the total water requirement, more so in the case of coal TPPs. Thus, improvement in water use efficiency of a power plant would largely depend on improvement in the cooling technology.
Water Optimisation 2023 this year shall deliberate to discuss why the water-guzzling coal-based power industry is ignoring water regulations even six years after the norms were introduced, noted that the sector is adding to water stress in the country as about 48% of the existing coal power fleet is located in water-scarce districts. The conference shall provide the direct edges to power industries for reducing their power generation cost, by decreasing water requirements, and indirect benefits like reduction in auxiliary power consumption. This conference focuses to shows that there is a huge potential of water conservation / saving in thermal power plant. Create a practice to reduce fresh water consumption in thermal power plant. By adopting various techniques, all power plants are to compile Govt. norms of specific water consumption.
