Thai Binh 2 Power Station, Vietnam

The new, 1200 MW Thai Binh 2 coal firing power station in Vietnam uses a 250 m high reinforced concrete chimney with PennguardTM lined steel flues. The chimney flues will function under highly corrosive, acid condensing operating conditions. This video will take you to the construction site and show the erection and lining of the steel chimney flues.

2 x 600 MW coal fired power station

Thai Binh 2 Power Station is owned by Vietnam’s state oil and gas group, PetroVietnam (PVN) and it is part of the Thai Binh Power Center. Located in Thai Binh Province on the north-east coast of Vietnam, this new power station is constructed by a consortium of PVC (an affiliate of PVN), Toshiba, Sojitz, and Daelim Industrial.

Following desulphurization in the FGD plants, the flue gas is reheated to a temperature of 67 °C and emitted through a 250 m high reinforced concrete chimney with two PennguardTM lined steel flues. The PennguardTM Block Lining System will protect the steel flues against highly corrosive operating conditions.
Bolted Flanges

Steel flues constructed using bolted flange connections

To construct the flues, the steel flue cans were connected using bolted flanges. This construction method is efficient and it is becoming more and more popular.

Steel flue cans prepared on ground level

A total of 78 steel flue cans each 6 m high were produced in a workshop, coated with PennguardTM HP Epoxy Primer and transported to the project site by barge. PennguardTM HP Epoxy Primer has improved durability and can protect steel surfaces for extended time periods.

Hadek on site QA Inspection

Hadek’s QA Inspectors supervised the entire lining installation process. This provides the owner, the EPC contractor and the chimney builder with the assurance that the PennguardTM lining is installed in accordance with all specifications, making it a reliable and virtually maintenance free corrosion protection for decades.
