4. Introduction:-
• Objective of CHP is to supply the quanta of processed
coal to bunkers of Coal mills for Boiler operation and to
stack the coal to coal storage area.
• Coal is a hard black or dark brown sedimentary rock
formed by the decomposition of plant material, widely
used as a fuel.
• A piece of coal called Coal Lumps. Mostly E and F grade
coal used in India.
• 5 ways of Transportation of Coal is
1. Railways. (90% used)
2. Ropeways.
3. Roadways.
4. Waterways.
5. Airway.

5. The sizes of coal lumps is about to the
600mm.
This coal is fed to single rotary crusher and
after that the size become 300mm.
This coal is again fed to the double rotary
crusher and the size become 80mm.
This coal is again fed to the crusher and the
size become less than 20 mm or 20mm.
Then this coal is fed to the coal mill for
pulverization.
Even when the bunker is full this coal is used
for stacking or storage of coal in coal storage
area.

6. What is CHP??
CHP is (C- Coal, H- Handling, P- Plant) a plant
which handles the coal from its receipt to
transporting it to Boiler and store in Bunkers. It also
processes the raw coal to make it suitable for Boiler
Opeartion.
Extent of work: - In brief we can say that receipt of
coal from coal mines, weighing of coal, crushing it
to required size and transferring the quantity of coal
to various coal mill bunkers.
This is the responsibility and duty of the CHP and
its staff.

1) ROADWAYS
Coal is carried in trucks.
8-10 mt coal per truck.
Requires more time and manpower.
Coal mines should be near to PS
(100-150 km).
Coal is lost / waste in transit.
Hence not in use for large power stations.

2) RAILWAYS:-
◦ Unloaded with the help of WAGON TIPPLER
◦ One Rack consist of 52-56 Wagons.
◦ 13/25 wagons can be tippled in an hour.
◦ Each wagon contains 55-58 MT of coal.
◦ Wagon movements are controlled by “Bettle
Chargers”
◦ Demurrage charges on racks.(11 ½ hrs.)
◦ Most popular mode of transport.

31. Equipments used in CHP :-
1. Pull chord switch
A series of such switches are arranged in series at a
1m distance on the side of conveyor belt. The power supply to rotor of
the conveyor belt is established only if all switches in series are
connected.
2. Vibrating feeder
The coal stored in a huge hub is collected on the belt
through vibrations created by the vibrating feeder.
3. Flap gates
These are used to channelize the route of coal
through another belt in case the former is broken or unhealthy. The flap
gates open let the coal pass and if closed stop its movement.
4. Magnetic separator
These are used to separate the ferrous impurities
from the coal.
30 June 2013 31
32. 30 June 2013 32
5. Metal detector
These are detect the presence of any ferrous and
non-ferrous metal in the coal and sends a signal to a relay which
closes to seize the movement of belt until the metal is removed. It
basically consists of a transmitter and a receiver.
The transmitter consists of a high frequency oscillator,
which produces a oscillations of 1500 Hz at 15V. The receiver
receives this frequency signal. If there is any presence of metal in the
coal. Then this frequency is disturbed and a tripping signal is send to
relay to stop the conveyor belt.
6. Belt weightier
It is used to keep an account of the tension on the
belt carrying coal and is moves accordingly to release tension on the
belt.
7. Reclaim hopper
Reclaimation is a process of taking coal from the
dead storage for preparation or further feeding to reclaim hoppers.
This is accomplished by belt conveyors.
37. IDLERS
Consists of 3 rollers
Rollers are fitted with bearings/Life
sealed bearings.
Profile makes an arc of a circle to
avoid sharp bends to increase belt life.
Fitting arrangement : 2 types
Fixed
Detachable
39. PULLEYS :
These are of heavy cast iron
Driving pulleys are faced with ferodo
or similar frictional materials.
The diameter of pulleys are large
enough to reduce the belt stresses.
Width of the pulleys are 150 mm more
than belts.
40. SNUB PULLEYS :
To relieve load on adjacent return idler
To increase arc of contact with the
main pulley avoiding belt slipping.

PROBLEMS FACED IN CHP
DESIGN PROBLEMS :
◦ Cal. Value
◦ Ash %
RAINY SEASON PROBLEMS :
◦ Chute choke ups
◦ Mud
◦ Coal yard -Slurry formation
OTHER MISCH. PROBLEMS :
◦ Snapping of belts/ropes
◦ Derailment of coal wagons
◦ Oversized coal / Muddy Coal.

52. Conclusion:-
In this way we conclude that CHP is
the heart of any thermal power plant.
without CHP we can not imagine any
thermal power plant which generate
electricity.
In this way CHP is essential need of
TPS.
