    The power station industry often uses diesel

    engines that burn heavy fuel oil, crude oil or diesel

    oil. By supplying separation systems specifically

    designed for continuous operation under roughest

    conditions, GEA Westfalia Separator Group provides

    for optimum power output and a long service life for

    these engines while taking into consideration the high

    environmental standards.

    Self-cleaning separators with GEA Westfalia

    Separatorunitrolsystems automatically monitor thewater level in the oil and the separation of the solid

    material round the clock. As a result, optimum

    separation efficiency for different fuel and lube oils

    is ensured.

    Like clockwork

    Normally servicing is necessary only after 8000 to

    16,000 operating hours. Surveillance-free operation

    reduces personnel costs tremendously.

    The accumulatedoil sludge can be processed directly

    in the power station, thereby reducing the disposal

    costs considerably. All separation systems are available

    as modules. Other ready-to-connect systems are also

    available as compact units in combination with

    components such as GEA Westfalia SeparatorViscoBoosterUnits (VBU) or Plate Heat Exchangers

    (PHE).

    The centrepiece of a fuel or lube oil treatment

    system is the centrifugal separator.

    Effective treatment ensures that only clean oil enters

    the drive unit. The wear on the injection system andon components such as cylinders, cylinder liners and

    the crankshaft of the diesel engine is minimized.

    Main duties of centrifugal separators:

    Separation of solids

    Separation of water

    Suitable types of centrifugal separators for

    these duties:

    Self-cleaning separators with disc bowl

    and automatic bowl ejection facility

    Manual cleaning separators with

    solid-wall disc bowl

    Self-cleaning separators with disc bowl and

    automatic solids ejection are used where the

    percentage of solids in the oil is too high for manual

    cleaning. They are used mainly for the clarification and

    purification of fuel oils such as gas oil, diesel oil, crude

    oil, heavy fuel oil and lube oil. The separated solids

    slide down the underside of the disc into the solids

    holding space. Self-cleaning separators eject solid

    matter automatically while the separator is running.

    This avoids shutting down the separator frequently

    for cleaning. The clean oil and the separated waterare conveyed to the discharge under pressure by a

    centripetal twin pump.

    Self-cleaning separators operate continuously. Solids

    ejection occurs either by total or partial ejections or

    in a combination of both. In case of total ejection and

    combination of total and partial ejections, there is

    additional self-cleaning of the disc stack.

    Labour-intensive and costly measures to clean the

    discs using CIP (cleaning in place with chemicals)

    systems are not necessary. Optimum separation

    efficiency over long operating times is ensured. Major

    maintenance work is required only after 8000 to

    16,000 operating hours.

    Self-cleaning separators

    GEA Westfalia Separator unitrolSystem

    WMS / SMS in Single Stage

    Modern fuel oil and lube oil treatment plants

    from GEA Westfalia Separator Group provide easy

    handling and optimum separating efficiency in

    difficult situations.

    The heart of these systems is a new generation

    of self-cleaning mineral oil separators with

    unitrol system. These separators operate without

    regulating rings and can be applied for a wide rangeof heavy fuel oils with a specific density up to

    1.01 g / I as well as for a wide range of lube oils.

    The essential features of these separators are both,

    the continuous monitoring of the oil for water and

    the continuous monitoring of the solids holding

    space for optimum solids filling, in one stage.

    Automatic monitoring means that regulating rings

    are unnecessary and operating errors caused through

    manual adjustment are eliminated.

    The Water Monitoring System (WMS) ensures

    reliable water separation. The water in the oil is

    separated out and discharged. The Sludge Space

    Monitoring System (SMS) checks the solids space

    for separated foreign matter.

    The oil is displaced prior to a bowl ejection. The

    precisely defined displacement volume minimizes

    oil losses.

    A further innovative feature of these separators

    is the bowls new hydraulic system (GEA Westfalia

    Separator hydrostop). Extremely short ejection times

    combined with maximized solid ejection ports pro-

    vide highly concentrated solids. Further disposalmeasures are simplified, disposal costs reduced

    and environmental considerations fully taken into

    account.

    During total ejections, preferred by GEA Westfalia

    Separator Group, the disc stack is also cleaned. Work

    and cost intensive measures for cleaning the disc

    stack by CIP systems are not necessary; this ensures

    optimum separating efficiency over a long period of

    operation. Maintenance work is required only after

    8000 to 16,000 operating hours.

    Just a few basic models are sufficient to cover all

    capacity ranges with the benefit of very economical

    spare parts storing and servicing.

    Manual cleaning separators with solid-wall bowl and

    single centripetal pump are today mostly used for the

    treatment of diesel oil and lube oil in smaller power

    stations.

    They are suitable for clarifying or purifying oils with

    a low solids content of up to 0.01 % by vol.

    The clean oil is discharged from the bowl under

    pressure by means of a centripetal pump. Theseparated solids slide down the underside of the disc

    into the solids holding space which must be emptied

    by hand periodically.

    water flows under gravity via a regulating ring to the

    discharge.

    Its payback time

    During the transportation from the refinery to the

    power plant diesel oils are often contaminated with

    sea water and other impurities. Centrifuges are essential

    for the efficient control and removal of solids and

    water from fuel oils in safety fue l oil treatment

    systems; they will continue to be so in the future.

    Efficient treatment protects the diesel engine from

    wear of important components such as cylinder liners,

    pistons, piston rings and the injection system. Bigcost savings because of less filter cleaning and less

    replacements of filter inserts; no problems with bacteria

    growth. The entire plant concept is completed with

    the feeder unit.

    Safety first

    Increasingly crude oil is used in diesel engine power

    plants, especially for crude oil pipeline projects.

    The crude oil is delivered to the power plant in a

    pre-cleaned and degassed condition. However, after

    the pre-cleaning the fuel quality is still too poor to be

    burnt in a diesel engine.

    The viscosity ranges from diesel oil to heavy fuel oil.

    As crude oil contains wax which is getting liquid only

    at a temperature of min. 50C, the separating temperatureis between 60 C and 98 C. Due to the low flash point,

    the system must be equipped with explosion protection.

    Crude oil fuels from different sources must be purified

    efficiently. This treatment protects the diesel engine

    from wear of important components such as cylinder

    Heavy fuel oil treatment

    Protect your engine

    Owing to its low price, residual oil is widely available

    on the international market. During combustion

    however, impurities cause corrosion and deposits.

    Depending on the application, treatment systems are

    available both for high-grade and low-grade fuels.

    When rating the throughput capacity of the plant,

    the following fuel oil data are of central importance:

    Viscosity (cSt)

    Density (kg/l) Solids and liquid impurities (%)

    The results of a research programme confirm optimum

    treatment even of fuel oils with viscosities up to

    1650 cSt/50C and densities up to 1.01 kg/l (15C).

    Centrifuges are essential for the efficient control and

    removal of solids and water from fuel oils in fuel oil

    safety treatment systems; they will continue to be so

    in the future.

    Low-grade fuels from different refining processes such

    as atmospheric or vacuum distillation as well as

    from conversion plants such as catalytic cracker or

    visbreaker process must also be purified efficiently.

    This treatment protects the diesel engine from wear of

    important components such as cylinder liners, pistons,piston rings and the injection system. The whole plant

    concept for heavy fuel oil treatment is rounded off

    During application lube oils are exposed to

    continuous contamination. Foreign matter such as

    abrasives, dust, condensate and decomposition products

    deposit in the lube oil sump. Furthermore, acids

    contained in the oil and foreign matter from catalysts

    can lead to premature aging.

    In case of diesel engines, particularly trunk piston

    engines, combustion residue and unused fuel find

    their way into the crankcase compartment, especiallywith partia l load operation. Sulphurous res idues

    and cleavage products of the fuel condensate form

    acid water with the water vapour produced during

    combustion in the cylinder. All this culminates in

    damage of bearings, pistons and cylinders.

    Centrifugal separation is the most common method

    of lube oil treatment. The separator is located in a

    by-pass loop within the lube oil treatment system.

    Process Overview

    Self-cleaning mineral oil centrifuges are mainly used

    for the purification and dewatering of lube oils,

    especially if there is a requirement for 24-hour

    unattended operation. Lube oil cleaning reduces

    wear and prolongs the life of the lube oil.

    The whole range of centrifuges is available for efficient

    and reliable treatment of lube oil.

    All fuel and lube oil treatment centrifuges from

    GEA Westfalia Separator Group have identical design

    features allowing the use of common components.This simplifies store management and maintenance

    immensely.

    Sludge treatment

    Save natural resources

    The trend towards burning higher viscosity and

    higher density fuel oils, together with an increasingly

    common usage of residuals, means that the amount

    of sludge being created from both, fuel and lube oil

    systems, is increasing.

    The sludge is pumped from the sludge tank by an

    eccentric screw pump and is fed via a heater to the

    centrifugal separator. The sludge components of

    water, oil and solids are separated by centrifugal force.The recovered oil and water is discharged under pressure

    by centripetal pumps.

    The concentrated sludge is discharged intermittently

    via the sludge transfer unit into a heated sedimentation

    tank where final concentration takes place. Excess

    water and oil is allowed to overflow back to the

    sludge tank. The concentrated sludge is pumped from

    the unit automatically by a solids discharge pump

    controlled by a level switch.

    A microprocessor-based control cabinet supervises

    and controls the complete concentration process.

    Approximately 2.5 % of a powe r plan ts f uel

    consumption remains as an unwanted by-product in

    the form of an oily water sludge mixture.

    With increasing environmental awareness as well as

    strict regulations and controls, most operators dispose

    of this sludge by incineration or by shoreside

    disposal using contract companies. In either case

    sludge disposal is becoming an expensive problem for

    the operators today.

    The GEA Westfalia Separator Group sludge treatment

    plant incorporating a specially designed centrifugal

    separator is capable of reducing the volume of sludge

    for disposal by up to 90%. In addition, fuel oil is

    recovered for re-use and recovered lubricating oil can

    be used as boiler fuel.

    Self-Cleaning Centrifugal System

    Waste water treatment

    system WSD 18

    Waste water treatment

    in many conventional plants under practical opera-

    tion conditions anyway. The further we can reduce

    this value, the greater the benefit for our environ-

    ment. Waste water is a mixture of the following

    constituents:

    Cooling water leakages

    Fuel and lube oil leaks

    Drainages from settling and sludge tanks Effluent from various cleaning processes

    The product (i.e. oily water without excessive emul-

    sion) is sucked up from the oily water tank and fed by

    the feed pump through the filter and pre-heater via

    the feed valve to the separator. During the start-up or

    ejection program it is led back into the oily water tank.

    The product flows from above into the centre of the

    separator bowl. The heavy water phase is separated

    from the finest oil particles and then conveyed under

    pressure by a centripetal pump to the discharge.

    Water is the source of life

    The treatment of waste water is strictly controlled by

    national and international laws.

    Waste water may only be discharged after prior

    de-oiling with specially approved treatment systems.

    The maximum oil content must not exceed 15 ppm. The

    limit has even been reduced to 10 ppm in some areas.

    Our water must stay clean

    Water is the source of all life on earth. The environment

    is the habitat of all life and therefore needs our special

    protection. Indeed we have a responsibility to future

    generations who have the same right on a rich nature

    as we do.

    15 ppm is too much

    Oily water may only be discharged if the oil content

    in the effluent is below 15 ppm. 15 parts of oil to one

    million parts of water seems small but GEA Westfalia

    Separator Group believes this is still too high. More-

    over, practice has shown that this value is not attained

    26

  • 8/11/2019 Diesel Engine Power Plants en 12-10-0002

    27/44

    The separated impurities accumulated in the sludge

    space are discharged into the sludge tank periodically.

    The treated water discharge is monitored by an oil

    content meter and discharged into the environment.

    If the oil content exceeds 15 or 10 ppm the water is

    recirculated into the oily water tank. If an oil content

    of 10 ppm is required, our treatment systems are

    generally fitted with an absorption filter that can be

    connected to ensure that the required result is

    achieved.

    The clever solution

    The waste water treatment system with the

    minimaXx separator type WTC was specially

    designed for small capacities.

    The product (i.e. oily water without excessive emulsion)

    is fed by the feed pump into the centre of the separator

    bowl. Within the rotating bowl, the product is

    separated into heavy and light phase.

    The heavy water phase is separated from the finest

    oil droplets and dirt particles and then conveyed

    under pressure by the centripetal pump to the

    discharge. If the oil concentration on the clean

    water outlet of the centrifuge exceeds 15 ppm the

    water is led through an absorption filter. The lighter

    oil phase flows to the centre of the bowl and is

    discharged by gravity.

    The separated sludge is collected in the solids holding

    space and must be removed by hand.

    An intelligent control and monitoring system assures

    problem-free, round-the-clock unmanned operation.

    It also ensures that only water with an oil content

    lower than 15 ppm is released into the environment.

    A pre-heater is recommended if the waste water con-

    tains oils of a higher viscosity.

    Safety first

    With the ViscoBoosterUnits, GEA Westfalia

    Separator Group offers a complete, compatible system

    for a safe and economic fuel oil treatment from the

    service tank to the engine.

    ViscoBoosterUnits are supplied as package systems.They are designed for 24-hour unattended operation.

    Efficient operation of power station diesel engines

    requires optimum fuel supply. This key condition is

    accomplished by the ViscoBoosterUnitsdeveloped by

    GEA Westfalia Separator Group for fuel conditioning.

    This unit consists of a treatment system that meets the

    fuel requirements between the clean oil tank and injection

    system for the diesel engine in terms of the required

    injection viscosity and temperature. Supply and booster

    pumps are provided for a stable system pressure.

    The modules are designed for the different engines as

    well as to the required injection viscosity (approx.

    10 24 cSt) and corresponding temperature (approx.

    135 150C).

    To be able to ensure a high plant availability and

    to achieve the high plant capacities, several diesel

    generators are frequently installed in power stations.

    We recommend splitting the classical Energy Unit

    into a Feeder Unit and, depending on the number

    of engines, into several Booster Units.

    GEA Westfalia Separator Group has developed the right

    systems for this task.

    Automatic Process Control

    More Safety, More Comfort

    The E40 control unit is specifically designed for

    the eagleclass. Even the most complex separator and

    system applications are controlled with precision.

    The E40 control unit performs process and control

    functions over and above those of the D10. To

    facilitate understanding, operating states, current

    process values, faults and changes in system status

    are shown by a change in color in the color display.

    Machine or system-specific display screens with

    assigned touch keys reduce the possibility of

    operating faults even further. MMC cards function as

    program memory; the lifetime data of the systems

    can be read out by technical staff for interval or

    preventive maintenance purposes.

    As an option, the control unit can be patched into the

    wor ldwide web using the Sm@rt Cli ent server

    function of the panel and the integrated Ethernet

    port. Sm@rt Client allows remote servicing to be

    effected quickly and simply. The machine can be

    operated and observed from any workstation within

    the customers network.

    Program control

    The control unit controls the program automatically

    as well as monitoring the separator completely. In

    addition to all the electrical components on the sepa-

    rator itself, it is also possible to incorporate in the

    control and monitoring system the peripherals

    required for a customers specific application.

    Water desalination system

    FWG Fresh Water Generator

    Independent generation of fresh water by single

    stage evaporation technology.

    Sea water is fed through the condenser, where it

    absorbs the latent heat of the condensing vapour.

    Some sea water is used as feed water for the evaporator

    whilst the remaining brine and non-condensible

    gases are discharged using a combined ejector. In

    the evaporator the sea water is heated up to the

    saturation temperature corresponding to the

    vacuum maintained by the ejector, and part of itis evaporated.

    The evaporator generally utilizes the waste heat from

    the main diesel engine jacket water, however, other

    heating media may also be used (e.g. steam, thermal oil).

    The vapour produced passes through the demister

    located in the upper casing to remove trapped droplets

    of water and is led to the condenser. The distillate

    is drawn from the condenser by the distillate pump

    and discharged through the salinity measuring unit .

    Depending on the residual salt content of the distillate,

    it is either led to the distillate tank or, if the maximum

    allowable residual salt content is exceeded, back to

    the evaporator.

    All parts in contact with sea water are made of

    corrosion-resistant materials (CuNi, stainless steel).

    The plates are made of titanium.

    On request GEA Westfalia Separator Group can also

    supplyMulti Flash Water Generators in a range from

    100 3000 t/d.
