Solar Receiver for Concentrated Solar Designed and Installed by B&W
In 2008, Babcock & Wilcox PowerGeneration Group, Inc. (B&W PGG) was awarded a contract to designand manufacture a solar receiver to harness the sun’s energy to produce superheated steam to generate “green” electricity. In August 2009, Babcock & Wilcox Construction Co., Inc. (BWCC) installed the 50 ton (45,000 kg) receiver atop a 150 foot (46 m) high stand-alone tower. Because BWCC is a wholly owned subsidiary of B&W PGG, the material design and manufacturing supply were fully integrated into BWCC’s final installation plan. This close working relationship enabled the team to safely raise the solar receiver to its final position in less than six hours. Pictures and details are displayed on the B&W website

B&W has SaskPower Order for Boundary Dam Life Extension
Babcock & Wilcox Canada Ltd. (B&W Canada) has been awarded a $107 million contract from SaskPower to engineer, manufacture, deliver and construct critical components for SaskPower's Boundary Dam Unit 3 in Estevan, Saskatchewan. The boiler retrofit for Boundary Dam Unit 3 is an integral part of the plant's life extension and conversion to allow for the capture of carbon dioxide through SaskPower's Integrated Carbon Capture and Storage Demonstration Project. , B&W Canada will engineer and supply all heat transfer surfaces and a new combustion system with low-NOx technology to provide SaskPower's Boundary Dam with a 30-year life extension and improved plant performance. The project is expected to be completed in August 2013. This posting is courtesy of Industeel, a supplier of steel for boilers and other power plant components. www.babcock.com

B&W Has Order for Palm Beach Waste to Energy Plant
B&W and BE&K, have been awarded a contract worth more than $668 million to engineer, design, procure and construct a new, 3000 tpdy state-of-the-art waste-to-energy power plant for the Solid Waste Authority (SWA) of Palm Beach County in West Palm Beach, Fla. B&W also was awarded a contract to provide operation and maintenance (O&M) services for the new facility. The first 10-year phase of the 20-year O&M agreement is valued at approximately $235 million. B&W will design and supply three mass burn boilers capable of generating up to 95 gross megawatts of electricity, grates, ash systems, metals recovery systems, emissions control equipment - including a dry flue gas desulfurization unit, baghouse, carbon injection and selective catalytic reduction system - duct work and other components. BE&K will provide the balance of plant equipment and construction services. B&W engineering, technical and support personal are expected to begin design work in Barberton this month. Furnace wall panels, boiler pressure parts and various components are targeted for fabrication in B&W's North American plants. The waste-to-energy plant is scheduled for commercial operation in spring 2015.
