The Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) in Kalpakkam has decided to design and develop a 800 MW advanced, ultra super-critical boiler for use in coal-fired power plants.
IGCAR has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with power equipment manufacturer BHEL and power generating company NTPC.
As per plans, IGCAR will design and develop the advanced, ultra super-critical boiler that can operate at a pressure of 350 bar (a measure of steam pressure) and at a temperature of 700 degree centigrade.
While BHEL will manufacture the boiler and other equipment needed for power generation and NTPC will operate the plant.
