5MWE GAS-BASED POWER GENERATION FACILITY SUPPORTING A MAJOR ELECTRICAL MANUFACTURER IN NARAYANGANJ,  BANGLADESH

INNIO has supplied 3 x J416 and 1 x J316 INNIO Group Jenbacher gas engines to Bangladesh.  A company spokesman comments:

"We’re proud to announce the successful delivery of a 4.5MWe gas-based power generation facility by our team in Bangladesh, supporting a major electrical manufacturer in Narayanganj."

  Clarke Energy in Bangladesh recently secured the prestigious EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) contract for the project, which included the supply of 3 x J416 and 1 x J316 INNIO Group Jenbacher gas engines.

  The contract was signed with TOA Corporation, the nominated contractor for Singer Bangladesh Ltd – a renowned electronic and home appliances manufacturer.  The successful execution of this contract marks a significant milestone for Clarke Energy in Bangladesh, reinforcing its position in the energy sector and underscoring its expertise in executing large-scale power projects on turnkey basis,  reports the company.

* J416-   this is widely used in natural gas, biogas and associated petroleum gas applications across the globe. Jenbacher Type 4 engines have the same design, emissions control, and waste gas-to-energy capabilities as their Type 2 and Type 3 counterparts, plus high power density and outstanding efficiency in their power range.  The high-power turbocharger allows optimal operation at higher air intake temperature and altitude. A four-valve cylinder heads features enhanced swirl and channel geometry using advanced calculation and simulation methods, resulting in optimal cooling and combustion conditions.  The Type 4’s connecting rod reduces bearing wear and is easy to maintain. Applicable gas types include: natural gas, associated petroleum gas (flare gas), propane, biogas, sewage gas, landfill gas, coal mine gas, other special gases (e.g. coke, wood, and pyrolysis gases).

* J316  -  based on Innio's proven Type 3 platform established in 1988 and continuously developed ever since, the next generation Jenbacher Type 3F engine offers proven robustness and reliability while delivering more efficiency than ever. Building on its proven heritage, the new Type 3F 50 Hz engine now leads the way with next-generation technology innovation that delivers an up to 2 percentage point efficiency boost compared to earlier engine versions—up to 1,065 kWe—without sacrificing its proven reliability or robustness.

In addition to delivering efficiency as high as 43.2% when operating on pipeline gas, the Type 3F engine is optimized for reduced total hydrocarbon (THC) emissions, future-proof fuel flexibility, and enhanced serviceability. Moreover, the latest 3F technology is retrofittable for most of the installed Type 3 fleet.

   Combined Heat and Power Module (CHP Module) solutions like these allow customers to generate power and heat simultaneously at a very high total efficiencies, reaching 90% and even more. The usual scope of supply involves the engine and alternator installed on the frame, a Control panel, gas train and heat exchangers, including exhaust gas heat exchangers.

 CHP Modules can generate hot water or steam at various parameters and can be integrated with your existing heat infrastructure. You can select the option that fits your project’s needs among the various heat recovery schemes provided by Jenbacher, reports the company. The scope of supply can be extended further with various balance of plant options (BOP), reach out to Jenbacher specialists for help in selecting scope of supply and BOP options to fulfill your project’s needs, suggests the company.
