[89873 bytes] The api Energia IGCC plant is designed to gasify high-sulfur heavy oil produced by the Falconara refinery The design feedstock is a vacuum visbroken tar from Arabian Heavy crude The gasifiers are also able to process many other feedstocks including tars produced by other crudes as well as other types of refinery residues The plant has been divided into two main areas: the syngas manufacturing process plants (SMPP) and the combined cycle power plants (CCPP). Both areas are shown in Fig. 4 [20230 bytes] The SMPP is designed to convert the heavy residues into a clean syngas by using technologies licensed by Texaco the SMPP consumes approximately 58 ton/hr (1,400 ton/day) heavy residues to produce 130 ton/hr of clean syngas mainly composed of CO and H2 This gas is then mixed with 127 ton/hr of nitrogen to prepare a low-NOx fuel gas to be used in the gas turbine of the CCPP this section produces a pretreated water blowdown (33 cu m/hr) and a liquid sulfur stream (4 ton/hr) The core of the SMPP is the Texaco gasification system Api Energia selected this technology because of its commercial experience and environmental capabilities The Texaco-licensed section includes one feed preparation section two quench gasification and scrubbing sections (each rated at 56% of the plant throughput requirement with Arab Heavy feedstock) one carbon extraction unit api Energia selected the direct quench gasifier for its reliability A major role in this decision was the forecast of the metal content of the gasification feedstock (up to 800 ppm) This could have been a potential source of plugging in the waste heat boiler tubes The syngas at the outlet of the two gasifiers is washed with water in the two scrubbers for the removal of solid particles (unconverted carbon and metals originating from the feed) The carbon-extraction section is designed for the recovery and recycle of the unconverted carbon through naphtha extraction The blowdown of this unit is a waste water stream containing metals It is treated in the gray water treatment unit to prepare a final water blowdown suitable for the existing refinery biotreatment A solid effluent in the form of a filter cake is also discharged from this unit and sent to external plants for the recovery of the metals The gas-cooling section has been designed by ABB Lummus Global with the aim of recovering the medium/low temperature duty available in the syngas after water scrubbing The waste heat is recovered by generation of steam at three pressure levels a COS hydrolysis reactor is provided to convert the small amount of COS produced in the gasifier to H2S for removal in the acid gas removal unit This section also includes a gas expander for the recovery of the pressure energy of the syngas (pressure in gasifiers is about 65 bar) mainly because of its extensive and successful experience with Texaco syngas a circulating Selexol stream is used to selectively absorb the H2S formed in the gasifier and in the COS hydrolysis Two Claus units licensed recover sulfur contained in the H2S of the Selexol acid gas The units are followed by a tail gas treatment section that permits an overall sulfur recovery of 99.9% This unit produces the oxygen required for the gasification and the Claus plant (70 ton/hr at NOC) and the nitrogen for syngas conditioning (127 ton/hr NOC) It is based on conventional cryogenic air fractionation ABB Power Generation designed the combined cycle plant It mainly consists of a conventional cycle with a gas turbine (GT) The main equipment of the CCPP is the ABB Type 13E2 Gas Turbine-Generator set designed for both syngas and backup diesel fuel operation The machine is equipped with dry low-NOx burners The CCPP has a wide range of operation due to the possibility of switching over from syngas to backup fuel The gas turbine is able to operate from part load up to its saturation point after which the excess syngas can be fired in the supplementary firing system A major effort has been made by ABB to optimize the integration between the CCPP and the SMPP in order to maximize plant efficiency There are steam extraction and admission devices in the steam cycle and in the ST for the integration with the gasification and with the refinery The ABB 13 E2 machine is an advanced gas turbine with annular combustor chamber commercially proven in many applications The axial compressor of the machine has 22 stages and one row of variable inlet guide vanes that ensures high efficiency operation even at part load The gas burned in the annular combustor expands in a five-stage turbine equipped with an air-cooling system to protect rotor The HRSG is the main equipment in the steam cycle natural-circulation boiler with three steam pressure levels It recovers the heat of the gas turbine exhaust the high-pressure steam is superheated and is sent to the ST The ST is a condensing-type turbine with two cylinders with process extraction and admission for the external steam Live steam will pass through the high pressure/medium pressure (HP/MP) casing then cross over into the twin-exhaust the steam turbine exports MPS and LPS to the refinery An auxiliary steam generator (backup boiler) will be provided to ensure continuous steam export to the refinery even when the gas turbine is unavailable for operation The IGCC complex will be equipped with all the necessary auxiliary systems including cooling water (mixed system with an open seawater circuit for large users and a closed clean water circuit for the other users) Table 2 [68263 bytes] gives the main plant data based on feedstock from 65% Arab Heavy and 35% Arab Light it is possible to calculate an overall IGCC efficiency by including the equivalent theoretical electric power of the exported steam (see box) is one of the cleanest systems today available for power production and certainly the cleanest of all with heavy high-sulfur fossil fuels such as coal or refinery residues This was one of the reasons api Energia selected this technology after the start-up of the IGCC plant the Falconara Marittima site will produce 280 mw instead of the 15 mw produced today with steam boilers the overall refinery emissions will be reduced Table 3 [18748 bytes] summarizes the main api Energia IGCC plant stack emissions The api Energia IGCC plant is financed through a limited recourse project financing scheme All the tasks related to the successful completion of the project financing have been completed was achieved with a consortium of banks on Nov This is significant because this is the first time that an IGCC plant is completely financed without using government funds or soft loans This is true for all three Italian IGCC projects the api Energia IGCC plant is a 100% commercial plant and it represents the transition from demonstration phase to commercial operation of the IGCC technology for power production all the tasks related to the implementation of this project have been discussed and solved with the loan providers in order to be granted financing if the main economic indicators (internal rate of return debt/coverage ratio) have acceptable values the possibility to obtain a limited recourse project financing is substantially based on the recognition of the lenders that the forecast on that cash flow model is realistic and that the risks associated with it are sufficiently and proportionally carried by the project participants The economic model has been intensely studied by the sponsors and takes into account all the peculiar conditions of the Italian market and legislation for this plant it is worth mentioning the electricity sales price It has often wrongly been considered as a substitute for government contribution to the economics of the plant power production in Italy was a state monopoly with ENEL acting as the only authorized power producer and distributor obliging ENEL to buy independent power producer electricity according to specific tariffs the average value for the 20 year project life is approximately U.S.6.4¢/kw-hr at today's rate of exchange the tariff is approximately 8.3¢/kw-hr because it includes a component to take into account the repayment of the financing while in the remaining 12 (or more) years the tariff drops to about 5.2¢/kw-hr because it does not include that component The other major topics discussed and accepted by the lenders have been the analysis of the risks related with the project and the guarantees to be provided by the participants The main areas of risks include the maturity of the technology and its capability to be the base for a reliable plant All of these issues are today covered by detailed contracts which include guarantees and liabilities Audits on the refinery survivability over the next 25 years have been carried out by independent firms to verify the capability of the hosting industrial structure to maintain a competitive position in the Italian marketplace thus providing the adequate support to the initiative over its minimum 20-years life These studies highlight that the refinery is small to medium sized and therefore suffers some disadvantages in terms of economy of scale But it has a large advantage based on its location and on the higher transportation costs that any competitor would have to incur in entering its market the introduction of the IGCC plant will enhance the refinery profitability The positive assessments of these studies have been an additional element provided to the lenders to positively judge on the bankability of the project have been the basis for the successful financial closure of the api Energia IGCC project The main economic data of the project are summarized in Table 4 [48673 bytes] A number of contracts govern the api Energia IGCC project The most important are briefly described in the following section Api Energia will sell energy to ENEL under the terms defined by the Italian regulatory framework which includes the signing of a standard power purchase agreement between ENEL and the IPP Api Energia signed this agreement with ENEL in September 1993 and an integration agreement to cover issues typical of this project and operate its substation and transmission line to the national grid The integration agreement covers items such as the: An agreement between api Energia and api anonima petroli italiana fixes quantity and price of the feedstocks that api will supply to api Energia It includes the main gasification feedstock (tar) and all the other auxiliary or start-up feedstocks such as diesel (turbine backup fuel) low sulfur fuel oil (gasification start-up fuel) Api will also ensure that each of the feedstocks is stored at the refinery and available to api Energia at all times according to fixed quantities the total storage hold-up is 22 days at NOC The engineering procurement construction contract is between api Energia and the ABB consortium The leader of the ABB consortium is ABB Sae Sadelmi The consortium is responsible for the process basic design procurement and delivery of materials and equipment The agreement between api Energia and Texaco Development Corp provides for the supply of the gasification technology Under the agreement between api Energia and api raffineria di ancona the refinery will operate the plant and perform the planned and unplanned maintenance and inspection of the plant; supply the necessary personnel; have the responsibility for the safety of the plant and staff; provide assistance to the construction contractor during plant commissioning; prepare safety and administration procedures; and supply catalysts Api raffineria will purchase from api Energia fixed amounts of oxygen and steam (at three pressure levels according to refinery requirements) Api Energia will purchase from api raffineria utilities and services according to a utilities supply and services agreement that regulates characteristics (raw water An agreement between api Energia and api raffineria di Ancona will grant to api Energia the exclusive right to occupy and carry out works on the site as required for the construction of the plant by api Energia as well as all the easements required for the operation and maintenance of the plant Api raffineria has to perform the following preliminary work and provide the new facilities necessary to allow api Energia to construct and operate the plant: The personnel fully dedicated to api Energia include one finance and administration manager and one operations manager This staff presently works in api's Rome offices The staff is supported on a continuous or spot basis by personnel of api and ABB The technical support to the owner is guaranteed by a project group of Foster Wheeler Italiana in Milan The ABB Consortium is organized with a consortium directorate (presently located in ABB Sae Sadelmi's office) led by a project director and his deputy It also has responsibilities for quality assurance Each of the three ABB companies working in the consortium has set up their own project groups in their home offices Api raffineria is working in Falconara Marittima on the preparation and supporting activities necessary for the implementation of the IGCC plant in the refinery Once a month a project review meeting is held in Rome by the various parties to check the progress of the activities and discuss problems The introduction of the IGCC plant will represent an historical modification of the refinery configuration the two major goals will be the elimination of high-sulfur fuel oil production and the capability of processing heavy European refineries face the huge problem of a drastic reduction in the production of high-sulfur fuel oils because its use as power station fuel is rapidly declining due to environmental regulations If a large investment cannot be sustained by the refinery owner the only alternative to reduce this production is to process low-sulfur The result is that the refinery margins and flexibility will decrease to a level at which the refinery cannot survive The alternative to this condition is to make large investments in deep conversion units or in a IGCC plant It has been estimated that the api refinery margins will increase about $0.70-0.80/bbl when the IGCC plant is in operation the long-term contracts related to the IGCC plant as well as the utility integrations between the IGCC plant and the refinery will be the main reasons for this improvement This estimation has been confirmed by independent consultants Studies indicate that refinery performances as measured according to worldwide accepted indices will measurably improve in several areas This will allow the api refinery to reach higher positions in the international refinery ratings The integration of the api Energia IGCC plant in the existing and well-established api refinery will represent a mutual benefit for both the IGCC plant and the refinery Consideration Relevant

via an offshore platform 9 km from the coast that can receive 400,000 dwt tankers One of the lines to the refinery permits heating the crude to 65° C allowing the off loading of crudes with high freezing points and viscosity The refinery is currently completing a major modernization program that began in 1995 It is aimed at bringing its products in line with future European Union and national standards A 3,000 ton/day desulfurization unit being installed will enable the refinery to produce 0.05% sulfur gas oils and 0.03% heating oil Overall IGCC Efficiency Net (theoretical) power production 233,500 + 6,200 + 5,400 = 245,100 kw-hr Tar consumption in kw-hr/hr 57,200 kg/hr x 9,100 kcal/kw-hr/860= 605,260 kw-hr Net IGCC efficiency 245,100/605,260 x 100 = 40.5% Similarly the cogeneration (power plus heat) efficiency could be calculated by considering the steam enthalpy instead of the equivalent power; in this case the calculation is as follows: Net power production 233,500 kw-hr Heat generation in kw-hr 31,000 kg/hr MPS x 712 kcal/kg/860 kcal/kw-hr + 34,000 kg/hr LPS x 662 kcal/kg/860 kcal/kw-hr = 51,840 kw-hr Tar consumption in kw-hr 57,200 kg/hr x 9,100 kcal/kg/860 kcal/kw-hr = 605,260 kw-hr Net cogeneration efficiency (233,500 + 51,840) / 605,260 x 100 = 47.2% The AuthorsRoberto Del Bravo is project director of the ABB Consortium formed by ABB Sae

Marittima (AN) shows us a less controversial as emblematic skyline day clarity concrete plant refining API no a night of brilliant play of lights that shine in the night bringing in our imagination an imaginary metropolis of the twenty-first century From the sea the dramatic relationship is even more evident with an initial area of 700 000 square meters was born in 1950 is caught between the mouth of the river Esino NW with the suburbs of Falconara Marittima SE and ending with the Bologna - Ancona railway State Road 16 and the International Airport "Raffaello Sanzio" Ancona - Falconara SW without erasing the signs that man in the leaves driven by the need of various types that are often in conflict with each other it excludes the total demolition of the site industrial The project proposal is to recover and of his conversion intended to be covered by the raw returns to be traveling at the same time and place of observation unusual one of a kind used as a new interpretation of the industrial site To make the new system object of reflection are introduced plant species such as to emphasize the contrasting and often conflittuoso relationship between nature and machine the plant species are now being given freedom to regain their own space the sections of pipes and steel silos are insufficient to meet the new conditions so they are reinforced in an appropriate manner Da molti anni l’ingresso alla strada statale adriatica 16 direzione nord all’altezza di Falconara Marittima (AN) ci mostra un emblematico quanto meno controverso skyline di giorno la chiarezza concreta dell’impianto di raffinazione API n di notte un brillante gioco di luci che splendono nella notte riportando nel nostro immaginario una fantomatica metropoli del XXI secolo; il luogo risulta nello stesso tempo Dalla parte del mare il rapporto drammatico appare ancora più evidente con una superficie iniziale di 700 000 mq nato nel 1950 è incastrato tra la foce del fiume Esino a NO con la periferia urbana di Falconara Marittima a SE e per finire con la ferrovia Ancona-Bologna la strada statale 16 e l’aeroporto internazionale "Raffaello Sanzio” Falconara-Ancona a SO L’IDEA L’idea è quella di tramandare i segni che l’uomo lascia nell’ambiente spinto da necessità di vario tipo che spesso sono in conflitto tra loro; pertanto in controtendenza è esclusa la demolizione totale del sito industriale La proposta progettuale è quella del recupero e della sua conversione torna ad essere percorrenza ed allo stesso tempo posto di osservazione inedito unico nel suo genere utilizzato come nuova interpretazione del sito industriale A rendere il nuovo sistema oggetto di riflessione vengono introdotte essenze vegetali tali da sottolineare il rapporto contrastante e spesso conflittuoso tra natura e macchina; alle essenze vegetali viene ora data libertà di riconquistare il proprio spazio Così come è concepita l’idea le sezioni delle tubazioni e dei silos in acciaio sono insufficienti a soddisfare le nuove condizioni di esercizio quindi vengono rinforzate in maniera adeguata a fire broke out in the Api refinery in Falconara Marittima followed by a fire which has spread rapidly within the refinery Falconara Marittima Bees causing concern among residents and requiring immediate rescue intervention The 118 vehicles, the Carabinieri and the fire brigade teams from Jesi, Senigallia and Ancona intervened on site. The fire it was tamed and while the police have closed Via Flaminia for security reasons According to initial information provided by the firefighters the flames developed in the section dedicated to diesel processingThe systems involved had been reactivated a few days earlier “The fire has been extinguished and has not involved the tanks The most important confirmation is that there are no injuries I am present on site together with the Council our Local Police and all the law enforcement agencies I immediately spoke with the Director of the Sciascia plant and the Vice Prefect The activities in the other plants continue regularly The competent authorities have been informed and checks are underway to ascertain the causes” According to initial reconstructions, the fire could have been triggered laid down by the pipe or valve breakage causing the flames to spread to a high-pressure system The intensity of the fire generated massive tongues of flame and a dense column of smoke visible for miles around the incident remained confined to the operational area without involving the tanks which is why it was not necessary to activate the external emergency plan the police and specialized technicians will continue in the next few hours with the surveys and investigations to determine precisely the causes of the incident Notizie.it is a newspaper registered with the Court of Milan n.68 on 01/03/2018 Impara come descrivere lo scopo dell'immagine (si apre in una nuova scheda) Lascia vuoto se l'immagine è puramente decorativa
