Project Name:

Guizhou Qianxi Qinglong Coal Mine Methane Utilization Project

Country:

China

Description:

The proposed project is located in Qinglong coal mine. The Coal mine methane (CMM) is currently extracted from the underground. All the extracted CMM is released into atmosphere which leads to not only great waste of resources but also air pollution. The total designed installation capacity is 2*500+4*700kW in the proposed project. 2*500kW generators have already been in operation since February of 2006. Other 2*700kW generators have also been in operation since January of 2008. It is designed that the last 2*700kW generators will be in operation in January of 2010. All the gensets will be fixed with compressors and waste heat recovery systems. When the project is fully operated, the annual electricity generated is 18,240MWh. 97.5% of which is connected to the internal grid for coal mine use. The left 2.5% is consumed by the power generation. The anticipated annual methane consumed by generators will be up to 5.88Mm3/y. Moreover, the project could recover approximately 28,621GJ waste heat annually, which will replace the thermal energy supplied from coal-fired boilers. In 10 years of crediting period, the proposed project could reduce a total of 851,309tCO2e of green house gas (GHG) emissions.
