Objective
The objective of this document is to guide the operation engineer in Operating the Coal handling
plant in safe and sequential manner and to ensure uninterrupted supply of coal to the bunkers
Description
HTT’s unloads incoming coal from HTT1 and HTT2 and receives in two conveyor stream BC1 &
BC1A respectively. Unloading can also be done through Hopper 1 and Hopper 2.
Coal from BC1, BC1A and BC 2 streams is fed, through a series of belt conveyors to the CHP-1
coal yard. THE stream has toothed roller crusher 1A and 1 B from screeners 1A and 1B.
CHP-1 storage yard No. 1 has a storage capacity approx of 25,000 MT.
Coal being fed from BC1, BC 1A and BC 2 are being feed through the stacker 1 which stores the
coal in bay wise from A to H bay and each bay being spitted into ten section say A1 to A10.
Reclaimed coal from the storage yard through reclaimer 1 and reclaimer 2 is fed to 1,2&3 unit
bunker through Conveyor series of BC 3, BC 2A BC 4,BC 7A & BC 7B bunkered through BC 7A
or BC 7B tripper cars in Unit-1, 2&3.For Unit-4 bunker coal feed through conveyor series of BC 3 ,
BC 2A BCN 8A,8B,9A,9B,10A&10B with help of 10 A & 10B Tripper cars
CHP 1 has a capacity of unloading at the rate of 300 TPH.
Direct bunkering can be performed without stacking through the series BC 1 , BC 1A BC 2, BC 2A,
BC 4 .From BC 4 can feed through either BC 7A or BC 7B IN Unit-123
