Claims
- 1. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process, comprising the steps of: providing a gas turbine with a waste-heat recovery system having a steam-circulation system downstream of said gas turbine; providing a combination chamber and a pressurized furnace having a first flue and a second flue upstream of said gas turbine; heating air by flue surfaces in said furnace; transporting to said combustion chamber flue gas from said first flue in said furnace, preheated combustion air, and combustion gas from a pressurized gasifier connected in parallel with said furnace; transmitting heat of combustion liberated in said furnace to said combustion air being transported to said combustion chamber and to flue gas generated by combustion in said furnace; cleaning said flue gas generated in said furnace by separating solids from said flue gas in a first filtering separator; collecting the separated solids in said second flue in said furnace; heating said combustion air by a heat exchange with said separated solids; burning partially fuel in said gasifier for producing reaction heat required for gasification in said gasifier and for producing fuel gas; and transmitting said fuel gas generated in said gasifier at combustion temperature to said combustion chamber, said fuel gas from said gasifier being cleaned by separation from solids in a second filtering separator.
- 2. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, wherein said preheated combustion air is heated by indirect heat exchange with said solids.
- 3. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, wherein said preheated combustion air is heated by heat exchange with said solids and with a heat carrier.
- 4. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, wherein said preheated combustion air is injected through said solids and exhausted along with said flue gas through said first separator.
- 5. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, wherein output of said gas turbine is controlled by varying the ratio of fuel supplied to said gasifier to fuel supplied to said furnace.
- 6. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, wherein said furnace is turned off when said gas turbine operates at less than full capacity.
- 7. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, wherein said gasifier is turned off when said gas turbine operates at less than full capacity.
- 8. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, including the step of reintroducing fuel gas from said gasifier into said furnace for reducing nitrogen oxide forming therein.
- 9. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, including the step of introducing brown coal wet from a pit into said gasifier.
- 10. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 9, including the step of adding water to said brown coal introduced into said gasifier.
- 11. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, including the step of introducing a sulfur-attaching additive into said furnace and said gasifier.
- 12. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 10, wherein sulfur compounds produced in said gasifier are introduced into said furnace and oxidized in said furnace.
- 13. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process as defined in claim 1, including the step of drying said fuel forwarded to said furnace by exhaust from said gas turbine.
- 14. A combination gas-turbine and steam-turbine process, comprising the steps: providing a gas turbine with a waste-heat recovery system having a steam-circulation system downstream of said gas turbine; providing a combustion chamber and a pressurized furnace having a first flue and a second flue upstream of said gas turbine; heating air by flue surfaces in said furnace; transporting to said combustion chamber flue gas from said first flue in said furnace, preheated combustion air, and combustion gas from a pressurized gasifier connected in parallel with said furnace; transmitting heat of combustion liberated in said furnace to said preheated combustion air being transported to said combustion chamber and to the flue gas generated by combustion in said furnace; cleaning said flue gas generated in said furnace by separating solids from said flue gas in a first filtering separator; collecting the separated solids in said second flue in said furnace; heating said preheated combustion air by a heat exchange with said separated solids; burning partially fuel in said gasifier for producing reaction heat required for gasification in said gasifier and for producing fuel gas; transmitting said fuel gas generated in said gasifier at combustion temperature to said combustion chamber, said fuel gas from said gasifier being cleaned by separation from solids in a second filtering separator; heating said preheated combustion air by indirect heat exchange with said solids; said preheated combustion air being injected through said solids and exhausted along with said flue gas through said first separator; controlling output of said gas turbine by varying the ratio of fuel supplied to said gasifier to fuel supplied to said furnace; turning off said furnace when said gas turbine operates at less than full capacity; reintroducing fuel gas from said gasifier into said furnace for reducing nitrogen oxide formed therein; introducing brown coal wet from a pit into said gasifier; drying said fuel forwarded to said furnace by exhaust from said gas turbine; introducing a sulfur-attaching additive into said furnace and said gasifier; introducing sulfur compounds produced in said gasifier into said furnace, said sulfur compounds being oxidized in said furnace.
