Foreword
Since the issuance and implementation of the SDGJ 11—90 Technical
Codes for Designing Ash Handling System of Fossil Fuel Power
Plant, positive effect and excellent performance have been obtained
in electric power construction owing to its active role in
implementation of national basic construction guidelines, reflection
of economic and technical poticy, unification and clarification of
construction standards, assurance of advanced technology in ash
handling system of fossil fuel power plant, realization of safe and
economical operation and accommodation of the requitements of
environment protection.
In recent years, under the support and direction of leaders at
individual levels, the technicians of ash handling discipline from
individual design institutes, power plants and manufacturers, by their
Joint efforts, have independently developed and manufactured large
quantities of advanced domestic ash handling technologies and
equipment, In addition, many advanced foreign ash handling
technologies and equipment have been introduced, digested and
absorbed, which significantly promoted the ash handling technology
(especially pneumatic ash handling) and accelerated the formation of
the existing ash handling technology in China,
With the deepening of reform and developing of technology, the
existing Technical Codes for Designing Ash Handling System can not
meet the requirements of the developing electric power construction
in some aspects. In accordance with the Notice on Confirmation of
Preparation and Revision Plan for Electric Power Industry Standard

Situations” for electric power construction are _ positively
implemented and advanced, reliable and proven ash handling
technologies actively promoted. Importance is attached on water, land
and energy saving as well as control of scale and standard of
nonproductive facilities. The revised code is more comprehensive in
content and more applicable for the practical situation of ash handling,
technology in China. It is of great significance in guiding the ash
handling design system of fossil fuel power plant and lays sound
foundation for the construction and development of China's fossil
fuel power plant in the 21% century.
