GE LM6000PA 42+7MW CHP plant for sale

 For sale one complete GE LM6000PA 42+7MW CHP plant ex Paper Mill

The gas fired CHP plant to provide the mill with electricity and steam. The CHP plant was built in 1995/96 to replace the boilers serving the paper mill at that time. The plant was commissioned in 1997.
The CHP plant is based around a GE LM6000PA aero-derivative gas turbine. The gas turbine can supply up to 42 MWe with an additional 7 MWe being supplied from a Siemens back pressure steam turbine. In addition the plant can continuously supply up to 105 tonnes per hour (tne steam/hour) of steam with short term peak capacity of 120 tne steam/hour.
The gas turbine exhausts into a Nooter Erikson heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) but also has the option to exhaust directly to atmosphere through a blast stack. This enables the gas turbine to be run in open cycle mode if the HRSG is not available. The HRSG has supplementary gas burners which can be run in addition to the gas turbine or can be run without the gas turbine by using forced draft (FD) fans to supply combustion air This adds considerable flexibility to the plant.
