Abstract:
A method of converting a system generating saturated steam, the system having at least one steam turbine group which has a saturated-steam medium-pressure steam turbine, the method comprising the steps of:replacing a portion of the system generating saturated steam with at least one gas turbine set, at least one waste-heat boiler, and at least one back-pressure steam turbine; generating steam in the at least one waste-heat boiler using the exhaust gas of at least one gas turbine of the at least one gas turbine set; supplying the steam generated in the at least one waste-heat boiler via a live-steam line to the at least one back-pressure steam turbine; and supplying the exhaust steam of the at least one back-pressure steam turbine to the at least one steam turbine group.
