Why T91?
T91 is 9% chrome with Vanadium, Niobium ,
controlled Nitrogen
Much lighter (40% less wall thickness than T22)
Higher creep characteristics
Reduces support structure costs (60% less weight
than other materials)
This makes initial cost of HRSG lower

Next Steps:
Integrate HRSGs in existing fossil boiler tube failure
reduction program
Develop Boiler Books for all units (Basic drawings,
materials with tube sizes, etc)
Perform design assessment of existing units
Educate boiler inspectors on configuration and materials
of HRSGs (versus using an outside contractor)

Conclusion:
CC / HRSGs are here and we have to deal with them!
We must get aggressive and review operational
procedures and assess the design, maintenance, and
operation to prevent future failures.
