  3. Operating a CHP system: emission analyzer testo 350

Combined heat and power plants

Thinks, instead of measuring. The emission analyzer testo 350.

Emission keyvisual

Combined heat and power plants (CHP) are used for the central production of and supply with power and heat. These plants are used in agriculture, in communes, in the management of residential buildings by medium-sized commercial and industrial companies, as well as by municipal utility companies and large energy suppliers.

The conditions for operating a CHP system are better now than ever before. For one thing, low oil and gas prices as well as state subsidies make the investment worthwhile. Apart from this, the increased electricity requirement of a growing world economy must be covered.

In order for a cogeneration plant to be operated economically, certain basic standards must be ensured by the targeted application of suitable measurement technology.

  • Monitoring emission limit values

  • Checking and inspecting engine efficiency

  • Correctly configuring the relations between ignition timing, excess air etc. of the engine

  • Testing of exhaust gas treatment systems
