Abstract
This paper focus on Pakistan Hub coal-fired 2×660MW power project which located in the coast areas with high temperature and high salty moisture. The category of corrosivity of atmosphere in Pakistan Hub is C5. The high salty moisture will increase the corrosion of indoor equipment and structures in turbine house, which threaten the safe and stable operation of power plant. Direct evaporative cooling (DEC) technology is used to cool the centralized supply air for the turbine building. To prevent the salty moisture air being supplied into turbine building causes corrosion for indoor equipment and structures, the desalting moisture filter has been developed and combined with the evaporating cooling unit, which realized the large-scale engineering application. The efficiency of desalting moisture filter reaches more than 93% tested in Tongji University and VTT in Finland, under the condition of the design outdoor temperature of 38.9 °C in Karachi, the supply air temperature is 24.4 °C, which ensures the operating environments of working area and meeting the occupational hygiene requirements and anti-salt spray corrosion requirements.
