Inge GmbH, secured a major contract in Spain for a large-scale desalination project in Ghana.  Spanish plant constructor Abeinsa EPC has been commissioned by Ghana's state-run Ghana Water Company Ltd. (GWCL) to build a seawater desalination plant producing drinking water for Ghana's capital Accra and the surrounding areas. Abeinsa picked Inge^® as its preferred project partner to equip the plant with a total of 10 ultrafiltration lines as a pretreatment stage for reverse osmosis. Inge^® is offering an extended package for this project also including the complete central header pipe and valve units provided in collaboration with the subcontractor Bauer Water GmbH.

The project is a build–operate–transfer (BOT) arrangement with a concession of 25 years. During this period, the company Befesa Desalination Developments Ghana Ltd. will operate the facility on behalf of Ghana's public water utility GWCL, which will be responsible for supplying the water to consumers. At the end of the concession period, the ownership of the plant will be transferred to the public water utility – one of the key reasons why the client has insisted on top-quality UF technology, consulting and engineering services. The client specifically requested an expanded package of services from Inge^® for this project:

"For this major project, Inge^® will not only provide its high-performance, pressure-optimized ultrafiltration racks with their patented Multibore^® membrane fibers, but also an expanded package including the central header pipe and valve units for the ten UF lines, furthermore including the support for the planning and installation stages. By offering this comprehensive, top-quality package, we successfully convinced the client that we are the best partner," says Inge^® CEO Bruno Steis. "We truly stood out as a turnkey supplier of complete ultrafiltration systems for large-scale plants." The ultrafiltration lines will feature more than 1,400 dizzer^® XL modules, and the complete UF system is designed to supply 135,000 cubic meters per day of pre-filtered water to the reverse osmosis stage. The modules and rack components will be delivered to Ghana by mid-year and installed by year's end. The seawater desalination plant is scheduled to start operation in early 2014. "We are proud that we've been awarded a contract for a project where the client sets such high standards for product quality, package scope and engineering services," says Ralf Krüger, the sales manager who is responsible for the project, summing up an undeniable success story for Inge^®.

BASF combined water solutions and oilfield and mining solutions effective April 1, 2013, to increase efficiency and support its growth strategies. The new global business unit will be located in Ludwigshafen, Germany. 

"By combining the strengths of these businesses, sharpening our focused market approach and at the same time increasing operational and innovation excellence, we are in a good position to advance innovative solutions to the water, oilfield and mining industries," said Hans W. Reiners, President of BASF’s Performance Chemicals division.

BASF offers a wide range of products for key processes of industrial and municipal water treatment, products for the drilling and completion of oil wells and mineral processing reagents for the mining industry. All three businesses include parts of the polyacrylamide (PAM) value chain. With the combination of these businesses BASF is taking various steps to increase efficiency and operational excellence in its PAM operations. Significant investments are planned to upgrade the performance of existing production plants, create additional capacity, strengthen R&D efforts and establish a new bio-acrylamide process for further cost optimization. 

As part of its world -wide operational improvement program for its water solutions business, the company expects to reduce its workforce by about 215 positions worldwide. Most of the planned job reductions will occur at the Bradford and Grimsby, UK sites. "The planned comprehensive measures are needed to achieve cost competitiveness. These efforts will be backed by considerable investments in new technologies in Europe as well as in North America and in R&D," said Reiners. BASF expects to complete the planned measures at the latest by end of 2015.

Within the future setup, the PAM product line and the respective operations will be jointly managed for all three businesses following an integrated PAM strategy covering both, cationic and anionic PAM in order to generate additional value. 

BASF’s water solutions business will in future fully concentrate on providing innovative chemical solutions to the water market. To this end the company is planning to divest its service-oriented industrial water management business, located in Lyon, France, to a strategic partner capable to further expand the business and giving the current 61 employees a long-term perspective.

The power industry will spend over $22.8 billion in 2014 for equipment and chemicals to transport, treat and control water and wastewater. This is the conclusion reached by McIlvaine through aggregating forecasts in nine of its market reports.  (www.mcilvainecompany.com)

These expenditures will be generated by coal, nuclear, gas and hydro plant operators. The biggest expenditures will be made by generators firing coal. They have the largest cooling, feedwater and wastewater quantities. Coal plants use more water than all the other industries combined.  The intake water from rivers, lakes and wells must be treated before being used for cooling.  Further treatment to make it ultrapure is needed for the smaller portion used as boiler feedwater.  Where the dust and bottom ash are sluiced, there are additional water needs. When scrubbers are used for SO₂ capture, large quantities of water are needed. The resultant wastewater has substantial contaminants including metals.  There are regulations in most countries requiring treatment of this wastewater. These rules are becoming more stringent.  In the U.S., a new proposal would replace a rule issued in 1982.

Last week the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency proposed a range of options to help reduce pollutants including mercury, arsenic, lead and selenium that are released into America’s waterways by coal ash, air pollution control waste and other waste from steam electric power plants. Compliance with the proposed regulation would be economically achievable, with an associated annual cost for the proposed options between $185 million and $954 million.  One of the options will be zero liquid discharge systems.  These systems purify and return all the wastewater for reuse in the power plant.  The waste is reduced first to concentrated slurry.  Evaporators then drive off the water resulting in a dry waste product.

China will be the leading purchaser of power plant water transport, treatment and control products. This is due to the continuing rapid expansion of its coal-fired capacity as well as its continuing nuclear program.

Valves will be the leading product category with revenues of just under $8 billion.  Water and wastewater treatment chemical sales to the industry will exceed $5 billion. This includes corrosion inhibitors, biocides, flocculants and many other types. Pump sales to the industry will be $3.4 billion.  This includes the large recirculation pumps which move limestone slurry to SO₂ scrubbers. Monitoring and control purchases of $2.6 billion include analyzers for contaminants, pH, flow and other physical and chemical parameters as well as the DCS, SCADA, PLC and advanced process optimization systems which control flow and chemical additions.
