1. Project Overview

Anhui Tiankang Group served as the instrumentation package supplier for the water treatment systems of the Bangladesh S. Alam 2×660MW coal-fired power plant EPC project, supporting the EPC supply chain of a large-scale ultra-supercritical power project with engineered pressure and temperature measurement solutions. Anhui Tiankang delivered pressure gauges, industrial thermometers, and instrumentation accessories in August 2020, providing reliable measurement throughout the seawater desalination and boiler feedwater treatment processes.

The project, located in Banshkhali, Chittagong, is owned by Bangladesh's S. Alam Group. On October 14, 2016, the project was jointly unveiled by the leaders of China and Bangladesh during the Chinese President's state visit. SEPCOIII serves as both the EPC contractor and a minority investor under the BOO model.

The project features two 660MW ultra-supercritical coal-fired units employing seawater DC cooling and seawater desulfurization technology. It is the largest single-unit capacity thermal power project in Bangladesh, with an annual generation capacity of approximately 10 billion kWh.

The plant successfully achieved commercial operation in 2023 — Unit 2 completed its 168-hour reliability trial run on September 17, 2023, 70 days ahead of schedule, and Unit 1 followed on October 22, 2023, 35 days ahead of schedule. The project received its Final Acceptance Certificate (FAC) on December 19, 2024.

3. Project Technology – Application Context

The following provides background on the project's process technology to help understand the instrumentation application environment.

3.1 Power Plant Auxiliary System Background

The project employs two 660MW ultra-supercritical coal-fired units, making it the largest single-unit capacity thermal power project in Bangladesh. The units feature advanced combustion and emissions control systems designed for efficient baseload operation.

3.2 Seawater Desalination System

The project includes a seawater desalination system to supply process water for the power plant. Seawater applications require suitable instrument materials and wetted parts to withstand high salinity and marine environmental conditions.

3.3 Boiler Feedwater Treatment

The boiler feedwater treatment system ensures high-purity water supply for the ultra-supercritical boiler operation. Precise pressure and temperature monitoring is essential for maintaining water quality parameters and ensuring stable feedwater supply.

3.4 Instrumentation Application Requirements

Instrumentation in seawater desalination and boiler feedwater systems must consider:

  • Corrosive seawater environment requiring suitable wetted materials

  • Stable pressure monitoring for pumps, filters and treatment equipment

  • Reliable temperature measurement for process control

  • Long-term operation under continuous power plant service conditions

  • Complete EPC documentation including datasheets, calibration certificates, and material test certificates

3.5 Seawater Cooling & Desulfurization

The plant employs seawater DC cooling and seawater desulfurization technology. Seawater is used both for condenser cooling and flue gas desulfurization, reducing freshwater consumption and environmental impact.
