Limestone Preparation Facility
Rayong, Thailand

Black & Veatch Ltd. awarded R&S a contract for engineering, supply, startup, and commissioning of a limestone preparation facility for MTP Cogeneration Company, Ltd. in Rayong, Thailand. The raw limestone entering this system is 3 inches X 0 inches, with about 6 percent moisture content. The project includes twin limestone preparation systems, each of which has a reclaim hopper that is filled by a front-end loader. The reclaim hopper has a variable-rate, zero to 20 TPH vibratory feeder that feeds a belt conveyor. The conveyor in turn feeds an impactor that reduces the limestone size to 3/4 inch X 0 inch.

The reduced limestone is then dumped into a surge bin that feeds a weigh belt feeder, which in turn feeds a pulverizer. The pulverizer further reduces the limestone to -4 mesh, from which it moves into a burner/combustion system to reduce the moisture content to about 1 percent. The dried limestone is pneumatically conveyed about 900 feet to day bins at the power plant. Ancillary systems include a baghouse collection system, a metal detection system, and a PLC control system.
