Introduction: in order to reduce the cost of power generation and improve the efficiency of waste utilization, National Thermal Power Company of France is currently using animal bone meal as fuel for power generation in a thermal power plant under its control If the experiment is successful, they will extend the technology to more thermal power stations Andre Shanrong, President of the company, said at a press conference recently that the experiment started at the beginning of this month and is currently under intense pressure at the company's holnan thermal power plant in northern France According to the plan, the experiment will last for several months During this period, they will use 12000 tons of animal meat and bone meal, accounting for about 7-8% of the total fuel needed for power generation of the power station, which used to use all the fuel in the past The president said the company has long sought to reduce the cost of power generation by using cheaper materials as fuel At present, with the implementation of EU's prohibition on feeding livestock with animal meat and bone meal, a large number of animal meat and bone meal has become waste and needs to be treated Therefore, the attempt to use animal meat and bone meal as power generation fuel can be described as killing two birds with one stone As we all know, the use of animal meat and bone meal as power generation fuel should first ensure that it does not cause pollution and harm to the environment and human body, which requires the necessary transformation of power generation equipment and technology According to materials provided by National Thermal Power Corporation of France, their total investment in this experiment is between 1.22 million and 1.37 million euros.
