BTL EPC Ltd has secured a prestigious Rs.590 crore order from Adani Power Limited for the Coal Handling Plant (CHP) and Ash Handling Plant (AHP) for the 3×800 MW Ultra Super Critical Thermal Power Plant at Pirpainti, Bhagalpur, Bihar.
The scope of work at Pirpainti covers design, engineering, manufacture, supply, erection, testing and commissioning of the complete CHP and AHP systems, BTL EPC said on 23 Mar.
The Coal Handling Plant package includes design and engineering of civil and structural works along with a belt conveyor system of approximately 9 km, supported by major equipment such as crushers, screens, travelling trippers and feeders. The package also includes electrical systems, control & instrumentation, dust suppression, and utilities including mandatory spares and maintenance tools.
The Ash Handling Plant package includes a bottom ash handling system through jet pumps and de-watering bins, with disposal to the ash dyke through pipelines extending up to approximately 4.5 km. The fly ash system will operate through a two-stage vacuum-cum-pressure conveying arrangement supported by vacuum pumps and compressors. The package also covers electrical, control & instrumentation systems, structural works and mandatory spares.
Commenting on the development, Ravi Todi, Managing Director, BTL EPC Ltd, said, “This order marks another important step in our growing association with Adani Power.
