April 11, 2022, 1:48 a.m. Updated 35 {"title": ["", "IMPULSE - Advanced Industrial Manufacture of Next-Generation MARBN Steel for Cleaner Fossil Plant"], "description": ["", "\nIMPULSE will work with novel "MARBN" high temperature steel, recently developed in TSB project "IMPACT" and shown to\noffer capability for an increase in steam power plant temperature of 25 degrees C. IMPULSE, whose consortium includes\nmost IMPACT members together with new pipe, welding and innovative research partners, will take MARBN from the\nlaboratory on to full-scale industrial manufacture of ingot castings, pipework, and weldments. This will improve efficiency\nand reliability of current and future steel-based steam power plant, and thus increase security of supply and reduce cost\nand carbon emissions. MARBN 8-tonne ingot casting technology will be developed, and following high temperature (to\n1250 degrees C+) testing and manufacturing simulation, two full-scale pipe extrusion trials will be undertaken, with product\nvalidation by testing and electron metallography. Matching welding consumables will also be developed, qualified and\ntested. Long term creep and creep-fatigue data generation will feed into performance validation, materials standardisation,\nand pressure vessel design codes. Interaction with the KMM-VIN collaboration will enable constructive interchange with\nparallel European projects.\nThe Nottingham team will provide the required expertise for testing MARBN specimens under creep and creep-fatigue\nconditions and developing the fatigue life model and the associated Finite Element modelling capabilities to enable the life\nprediction of welded MARBN pipes under flexible power plant operating conditions.\n\n"], "extra_text": ["", "\n\nPotential Impact:\nThe proposed IMPULSE project will enable industrial partners, Doosan Babcock, Wyman-Gordon, Goodwin Steel Castings,\nAlstom Power, Metrode Products and E.ON Technologies and their supply chains to gain market share on behalf of UK plc.\nin a growing global energy market, where the need exists for larger and more efficient coal fired plant. In order to deliver\ntechnology solutions, it is necessary to gain improved knowledge about materials' performance during processing and\nsubsequent service, together with new processing routes for component manufacture and consumable design for the\nwelding of large scale components. The project will also further develop collaborations between industry, research\norganisations and academia - a vital mix for market success.\nIn the most general sense, the UK population and economy will benefit from this research programme in that it will enable\nthe UK combustion power generation sector to maintain a cost-competitive, environmentally-acceptable generation option.\nIt will also create and safeguard a significant number of UK jobs in the manufacturing sector.\nThe research will also contribute to meeting nationally and internationally agreed targets for CO2 emissions. For next\ngeneration power plant with carbon capture and storage technologies (CCS), better materials performance is the key to improved efficiency, and in turn to both cost and emissions savings. The use of MARBN has the potential to increase\noperating temperature of plant by up to 25 degrees C. This 25 degrees C uprating will increase efficiency by approximately\n1%, reducing costs by at least 2%, and could save 1M tonnes of carbon p.a. in the UK alone, even if CCS is not fitted.\nFlexible, abated fossil plant will enable supply security as the process of decarbonisation progresses.\nResults will be disseminated as appropriate to UK industrialists and academics through fora such as the Materials UK -\nEnergy Materials group, and the Advanced Power Generation Technology Forum; in Europe through the Materials for\nEnergy network within KMM-VIN; and worldwide via international conferences, workshops, and international\nstandardisation committees.\nThe creep and creep-fatigue testing programme will provide plant operators with greater understanding of the implications\nof using the novel MARBN steel pipes in power plants. The new life prediction techniques for MARBN that will be\ndeveloped by the Nottingham team, validated by the test data, will enable plant operators to operate the new pipes safely\nunder flexible plant operating conditions. The Nottingham team has successfully launched four International Conferences\non the Integrity of High Temperature Welds, and will provide dedicated sessions on the new MARBN steel research\nfindings to be disseminated in the fifth conference.\n\n\n"], "status": ["", "Closed"]}
