Sumitomo SHI FW announced that it has successfully completed the delivery of a CFB boiler technology upgrade project to increase the oil shale retort gas combustion in an existing circulating fluidized-bed (CFB) boiler at the Enefit´s Narva Power Plant in Estonia.
As a result of the successful project, Enefit will be able to burn the entire volume of shale oil gas in the modified boiler plant resulting in higher efficiency and improved environmental conditions. For this engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contract, Sumitomo SHI FW provided the design, supply, construction and commissioning of modifications and equipment to the existing 100 MWe CFB boiler to increase its retort gas combustion capacity to 50% of heat input when co-firing with Estonian oil shale.
