Hawaii's unusual electric power system makes it really vulnerable to Hurricane Lane https://cnb.cx/2NcD2Dg Hawaii still burns oil to generate most of its electric power. Hurricane Lane threatens to disrupt the seaborne supply of fuel into the archipelago and throughout the island state. https://ift.tt/2PddWW7 August 23, 2018 at 09:07AM Energy https://cnb.cx/2KU3Ztw

PARAMETERS REQUIRED TO BE MAINTAINED STRICTLY  FOR EFFICIENT OPERATION OF AFBC BOILERS — Bed Height/FD Air Pressure — Primary Air Pressure — Bed Temp./Furnace Temperature — Fuel Size — Bed Material size & Specifications — Air & Fuel ratio — BED HEIGHT/FD AIR PRESSURE — Static   height for AFBC Boiler is to be maintained 300 to 325 mm during initial light up of boiler. — Expand bed height for AFBC boiler is to be maintained 500 mmwc to 600 mmwc. — FD Air discharge Pressure is to be maintained 600 to 650 mmwc. — Wind box or Air Box pressure is to be maintained 500 to 600 mmwc. NOTE: High W.B. pressure increases the erosion of bed coils & low W.B. stops fluidization. PRIMARY AIR PRESSURE — P.A. fan air header pressure for AFBC boiler is to be maintained 1000 to 1150 mmwc. — Difference of primary air pressure & F.D. wind box pressure is to be maintained approximately 500 mmwc. NOTE: High P.A. pressure increases the bed coil e
