INTRODUCTION
The reserves of natural gas in large quantity in the western off- shore region has influenced the government towards utilization of it for power generation. Earlier, gas use was restricted to fertilizer, petro-chemicals & extraction of LPG.It was found that amount of gas available for power generation, after meeting the gas requirements of fertilizer plant, could sustain power plants of 1000-1500 MW capacity in a combined cycle mode of operation. For high efficiency and early availability of power, the combined cycle has been preferred over conventional steam power plant cycle. Initially, NTPC was entrusted with the responsibility of setting up & operating three Gas Projects with an aggregate capacity 1610 MW. These projects are located at Auraiya near Etawah in Uttar Pradesh, Anta near Kota in Rajasthan & Kawas near Surat in Gujarat. The approval of Govt. of India for these projects was obtained in the month of October 86. The gross installed capacity of the Auraiya project is 663.36 MW. Award for the main plant package was placed On M/S Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Japan. AuGPP has two combined cycle module each consisting of two gas turbines, two waste heat recovery boilers and one steam turbine. The capacity of each gas turbine and steam turbine is: Gas Turbine: 111.76MW (Each _Model MW. 701D Steam Turbine: 110.00 MW (each Model TC2F-28). Total capacity of each Module: 326MW The gas turbines at AuGPP are open cycle, single shaft, heavy duty, industrial type consisting of 19 stage axial flow compressor. 4 stage axial flow reaction type gas turbine (Model MW 701D) were manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries of Japan. Atmospheric air is drawn through the inlet manifold and inlet casing into the compressor where it is pressurized and forced into combustion chamber. Fuel delivered into the combustors, is burned which raises the temperature of the mixture of air and combustion products to around 1150 C. The compressed and heated mixture (gas) flows through the turbine dropping in pressure and converted into mechanical work of rotation.

DEMINERALISING PLANT
PLANT CAPACITY & SALIENT FEATURES
The plant was designed to supply 55 m3/hr polished water. The potable Water is supplied to the power station and colony whereas the polished water is consumed in boilers to produce steam (for power generation).The plant comprises of two chains in demineralization and 3 pressure vessels for potable water production section. There is a clarified water tank common to both sections. From the clarified water tank, water is pumped by Pumps to potable water filters. After filtration, the water is supplied for use as potable water. From the same tank, water is fed to DM water pressure filters, active carbon filters, cation exchangers and degasser by means of clarified water pumps. After degasification, the water is pumped to weak base anion, strong base anion; and mixed bed exchangers units working in series. After achieving the designed quality, the polished water is stored in DM water tanks, from where it is drawn for use in waste heat recovery boilers. Small amount of polished water is used for internal consumption in DM water plant i.e., regeneration in DM plant.

PROCESS OF TREATMENT
The process of demineralization consists of the conversion of salts like NaCl, CaSO4, Ca(HCO3)2 etc. to their corresponding acids like HCI,H2SO4, H2CO3 by cation exchange resin (in hydrogen form) and removal of these acids by anion Exchange resin (in hydroxide form), thus removing all dissolved ionic impurities from water & converting water in pure form. Ion Exchange Resins : Ion Exchange resins used in DM water plants are synthetic organic compounds made by copolymerisation of various organic compounds. Most commonly used are Styrene & divinyl benzine (for the basic resin beds). Cation Exchange Process : Two types of cation exchange resins are mainly used in DM water plants, weak acidic and strong acidic. Selection of any of these resins depends upon the feed water quality and final water quality desired from the plant. In softening plants, cation exchange resin is used in sodium form whereas in DM water plants, it is used in hydrogen form.The main cations in water are Ca ++, Mg++ & K+, These are exchanged with mobile hydrogen ion of cation resin and is represented by the followingequations: 1. Weakly Acidic Cation Resin : a. RH + NaHCO3 _ RNa + H2CO3 b. 2RH + CaCO3 _ R2Ca + H2CO3 c. 2RH + Mg (HCO3)2 _ R2Mg + 2 H2CO3

2. Strongly Acidic Cation Resin : a. 2RH + Na2SO4 _ 2RNa + H2SO4 b. RH + NaHCO3 _ RNa + H2CO3 c. 2RH + CaSO4 _ R2Ca + H2SO4 d. 2RH + Mg (HCO3)2 _ R2Mg +2 H2CO3 e. 2RH + CaSiO3 _ R2Ca +2H2SiO3 Water from cation exchangers is sent to degasser where carbonic acid breakes into water & CO2. H2CO3 _ H2O + CO2 In this way, Carbonic acid load is reduced. When the resins (weak or strong acid) are exhausted as indicated by leakage of cations in the outlet water. These are regenerated by Hydrochloric acid or Sulphuric acid to bring back the resin in hydrogen form Mixed Bed Unit When the water is passed through cation exchange resin and then to strongly basic anion exchange resin, it removes most of the dissolved ions present in the water. In order to produce still pure treated water having conductivity less then or equal to 0.02 ppm, a mixed bed unit is used. A mixed bed consists of mixture of strongly acidic cation exchange resin and strongly basic anion exchange resin. Good treated water quality can be obtained from a mixed bed unit using relatively lower quantities of regenerants.

PRE -TREATEMENT PLANT

This plant has the capacity to produce 3000 m3/hr of clarified water to meet the total requirement of DM Plant and softening Plant. The various processes involved are as below: AERATION The raw water from reservoir is being pumped through 750 mm dia inlet pipe to the aerator. Cascade aerator is used to remove volatile impurities from raw water. The raw water is discharged at the top of the aerator through a concentric pipe and flows down wards in steps. By aeration, the water absorbs O 2 from atmosphere which helps in oxidation of organic matters. The iron dissolved in the water is precipitated as Fe2O3. COAGULATION From the aerator, water flows directly to the flash mixer through open cannel; where chlorine, lime and alum (Aluminum Sulphate) are dozed by the pumps and then flows through a RCC channel by gravity. FLOCCULATION & CLARIFICATION The chemically treated water is fed to the two Clariflocculators each have capacity of 1500 M3/hr. The clariflocculators are circular tanks of 40.8 me. in dia. The clariflocculation consists of two zones for removal of impurities. First, the flocculation zone (dia=2 me) where the microflocs with the help of slow speed-agitator and the second clarification zone for solid liquid separation.

MAIN PLANT
COMBINED CYCLE TECHNOLGY
For decades, gas turbines were extensively used for aeronautical applications, peaking purposes and black-start facilities. With the oil crisis in the mid 70s, the operation of gas turbines in the open cycle mode (efficiency as low as 20 to 25 percent) had become less attractive to the power generation utilities. Technological advancements made it economically viable to adopt higher firing temperatures for gas turbine of the heat with the help of the waste heat recovery boilers (WHRB). These WHRBs generate sufficient steam to develop 45 to 50 percent of the power developed by the gas turbine. As the result, average efficiency achieved by a combined cycle project has gone up to 13 percent by 1985, whereas the most efficient conventional fossil fuel power plant couldnt cross the bench-mark of 38 percent even with the supercritical parameters. With the result of the detailed optimization studies carried out by NTPC, it was possible to arrive at parameters for evolving such waste heat recovery boiler and steam turbine that would give an over all plant efficiency of as much as 48 percent, a fact not many utilities could claim.

Advantages over Conventional Plant

1. The higher efficiency of combined cycle, saves well over 35 percent of the premium fuel. 2. On the capital investment side also, it is important to note that investment for the combine cycle plant is only two-thirds that of a conventional plant. 3. The gestation period for the combined cycle plant is as much as 40 percent less than that of a conventional plant. 4. Dust free and clean environment. 5. Substantially reduced requirement for water, land and operating and maintenance personnel.

Basic parts of power plants

1. Gas turbine:
In the gas turbine, the power for driving both the compressor and the generator is produced. The energy is supplied to the turbine in the form of hot gases as they come from the combustion chamber. The kinetic energy of the gases is transferred to the rotor in the turbine by means of rotating blades. The combustion gases, come from the preceding stage, are accelerated in the stator blade while, simultaneously the inlet pressure is reduced by vectorial addition with circumferential speed. The relative speed is obtained for starting the generator, there is a high torque requirement and therefore we used a starting unit for starting a gas turbine. Gas turbine starting unit consists of Pony motor, which provides starting torque to generator for rotation. There is a turning motor in starting unit, which provides lubrication of oil in the bearing. In this unit an oil tank is also present to provide oil. Here we use a pressure gauge for measurement of pressure. We use a pressure transmitter which transmits a current signal.The GT starting unit is joined to generator through a shaft. This generator is joined to a gas turbine which is joined to combustion chamber. This gas turbine exhaust has temperature from range 500 to 550 degrees Celsius. This exhaust is used for generation of steam for steam turbine through Waste heat recovery boiler (WHRB). This gas turbine operates on Brayton cycle.

2. Steam turbine: There are 2 steam turbines in number, present in the full
AuGPP (Auraiya Gas power project). The two waste heat recovery boilers combined their output to one turbine. The turbine gets its feed from two drums. These drums are low pressure (LP) and high pressure (HP) drums. The low pressure drums give its output directly to the turbine but the HP drums give its output to the supper heater and then to the turbine. In this way, steam turbine consists of two turbines. These are as followsa) Low pressure (LP) b) High pressure (HP)

The low pressure turbine also gets the raw material from the HP exhaust. The left out steam in the LP steam turbine goes to the condenser and then again to the drums. The numbers of stages that are present in the high pressure (HP) turbine are total 12 in number and that in the LP turbine are 6*2 stages. This low pressure turbine is directly connected to the generator. The steam turbine operates on Rankine cycle.

3. Fuels: In the plant, mainly two fuels are used. They are as follows:
a) Natural gas b) Naphtha Dual fuel systems are commonly used enabling the gas turbine to burn back up fuels. When the primary fuel source is not available, dual fuel systems can be used fire both fuels simultaneously.

4. Heat exchanger: It is a device in which heat is transferred between two

moving fluids. Heat exchanger may be parallel flow. Counter flow or cross flow, depending upon the direction of the motion of the two fluids. If both fluids move in the same direction, it is parallel flow heat exchanger and if fluids move in the opposite direction, it is a counter flow heat exchanger. If they flow normal to each other, it is a cross flow heat exchanger.

5. Compressor:

In the gas power plants, the main function of the compressor is to increase the pressure of the air and its temperature is also increased in the compressor room, first of all there is a silicon tank which is used for absconding the moisture contents of air and then this air is compressed and sent to the combustion chamber for the combustion.

6. Combustor: In the combustor chamber, combustion takes place between

fuel and compressed air from compression room. The combustion is a chemical reaction between a fuel and oxygen, which proceeds at the fast rates with the release of energy in the room of the heat. The temperature of the combustor chamber is usually 1100 degree Celsius. This temperature heat energy is sending to the turbine. thermocouples in the combustor chamber are used for the measurement of the temperature.

7. Condenser: The exhaust steam of the steam turbine condenses into water
in the condenser where cooling water circulates. After heat reflecting from the condenser chamber, this water is sent to the pump. A condenser could be a reversible constant pressure heat rejection.

8. Filters: For combustion process in the combustion, there is requirement of

oxygen. We take oxygen from atmosphere as air in the atmosphere contains impure particles (dust particles). Therefore we use a filter, for removal of dust particles from the atmosphere air and to get pure oxygen for combustion in the combustor chamber.

9. Generator:
a) Stator

In gas power plant, generators are used for generation of electricity. Basically generator has two parts: b) Rotor

Stator is the stationary part of the generator on which field winding is present. Rotor is the rotating part of the generator on which armature winding is present. When the rotor rotates, the flux linked with the conductors changes. Therefore EMF is induced based on the principle of Faradays laws. In gas power plant, total six generators are used (one for each turbine).

10. Valves: In gas power plant, valves are used to control the flow. 11. Pump:
After heat rejection, in the condenser the water is sent to the pump. For the pump, the ideal process would be reversible adiabatic compression of this liquid ending at the initial pressure (increase its pressure). In the gas power plant, there is centrifugal type pump. In this type of pump, inlet and outlet are connected to the peripheral of the pump. After pumping, outlet water is sent to the boiler.

12. Pipe: In gas power plant, there are different colours of pipe for easy
detection: a) Sky blue shows air pipe b) Yellow shows gas pipe c) Green shows water pipe d) Brown shows naphtha or fuel pipe
