Abstract
This paper gives a review of applications within the Unilever Group, including plants in operation and studies that did not result in implementation, discusses the development of Unilever's Mersey side site and gives a review of Unilever's recently completed remodelling of the Merseyside Power Station, Port Sunlight, including the financial case, how it is put into practice and operating experience.
The oil-fired high-pressure boilers/backpressure steam turbines station now incorporates a 105 tonne/h, 103 bar, 510°C, spreader stoker coal-fired boiler and a 9.5 MWe heavy fuel oil-burning medium-speed diesel engine. Both operate on ‘base load’. The station is flexibly integrated by means of feedwater and air heating systems.
