Power-Gen Networking In Four Areas with Water Decision Stops
McIlvaine has created and will update six route maps at Power-Gen up to and even
throughout the show. These route maps will be easily accessed by mobile phone.
Phone numbers and e-mails are provided, so you can arrange meetings. We will
also be introducing subjects for discussion. There are lots of important
developments in each of the areas. Four of these routes are important to those
involve with water:
Power-Gen 2013 Will Aid in Your CCR and Effluent Guidelines Decisions
There are some good speeches on the coal residue wastewater cleanup. The e-mails
and phone numbers of speakers and panelists are provided. There are a number of
exhibitors at each decision stop. It is estimated that the CCR alone will cost
the utility industry $12 billion, so it is an important route. There are at
least five different ways to eliminate your ash ponds. One is mix flyash with
lime and your FGD sludge and provide a chemically fixed product. URS is offering
this technology.
Power-Gen 2013 Will Aid in Your MATS Decisions
Lots of speeches and lots of exhibits at the many decision tree stops on this
route. There is more focus on circulating dry scrubbers than on limestone wet
FGD. How times have changed. If you are interested in the Chinese market, you
may want to track down Joe Wang of Longking. He was a speaker last year, but is
roving this year. Removal of mercury and other toxics from wastewater is
actively addressed by speakers and exhibitors.
Power-Gen 2013 Will Aid in Your Pump Decisions
We have a matrix with exhibitors for many applications within Power. The big FGD
pumps are major purchases for utilities. The boiler feedwater pumps are critical
items and huge energy consumers.
Power-Gen 2013 Will Aid in Your Valve Decisions
There is a matrix with exhibitor stand listings for many power applications for
valves. We had hoped to also add live links to more specific application
information for each exhibitor. We are encouraging the valve companies to
provide this over the next few days. So keep checking the site even during the
show.
Application Route Maps for Filtration 2013 to be updated for your mobile
At next week’s Filtration Conference at Navy Pier, McIlvaine will be executing a
unique networking initiative. It will involve continued access by mobile by
visitors and is also linked to the social media system of the organizers.
McIlvaine Company has created a number of Global Decisions Positioning System™
(GDPS) Route Maps for the visitors to help them understand how the show can help
them with solutions for four specific applications.
Fabric Filters for Coal Plants Gas Turbine Air Intake Filters

We will be updating the list and adding insights on a continuing basis. We will
also be adding e-mails and mobile numbers to encourage arranged meetings.
McIlvaine will also have a stand (Booth #224) and will assist in linking
visitors with exhibitors who have answers for any of these applications.
More Than $10 Billion Committed Each Week for Oil, Gas and Refining Projects
A number of very large oil, gas and refining projects are initiated each week.
East Asia, North America and many regions of the world are benefiting from these
very large investments. This is the conclusion reached by the McIlvaine Company
in Oil, Gas, Shale and Refining Markets and Projects. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)
Projects are tracked on a daily basis. Here are just some of the projects in a
ten day period:
Some of the larger projects awarded in late October 2013:
East Timor Offers New Bid of $800 Mln for Onshore Gas Processing
Cumulative $800 million
FMC Awarded $340 Mln Contract for Ghana's TEN Project
Cumulative $1,140 million
Petrobras Awards $260 Mln Umbilicals, Flex Pipe Contract for Presalt Development
Offshore Brazil
Cumulative $1,400 million
Jacobs Receives $200 Mln Contract from BP in Scotland
Cumulative $1,600 million
GE Signs $2.7 Bln in Gas Power Contracts in Algeria
Cumulative $4,300 million
Sembcorp Marine to Build $346 Mln Semi-Submersible Rig
Cumulative $4,646 million
Rolls-Royce Wins $175 Mln Contract to Power Kazakhstan-China Pipeline
Cumulative $4,821 million
BP Awards UK Companies over £1Bln in Contracts for Key West of Shetland Project
Cumulative $5,821 million
FMC Wins $650 Mln Contract with Petrobras for 16 Subsea Manifolds
Cumulative $6,471 million
FMC Technologies Receives $90 Mln Subsea Order for Statoil's Gullfaks
Rimfaksdalen Project (Order Dated: 10/15/2013)
Cumulative $6,561 million
Gazprom Awards Petrofac $95M Second Contract in Iraq (Contract Dated:
10/14/2013)
Cumulative $6,656 million
L&T Wins $250 Mln EPC Contract from PDO Oman (Contract Dated: 10/14/2013)
Cumulative $6,906 million
There are relatively few conventional on shore projects. Non-conventional on
shore deposits such as in shale will account for a large portion of the future
U.S. production. Substantial investment is continuing in tar sands. A number of
large LNG plants are also underway. Several gas-to-liquids plants received
recent funding.

Cleanroom Consumables Market to Exceed $7 Billion In 2014
The market for clothing, wipes and other consumables used in cleanrooms will
grow this year to more than $7 billion. This is the conclusion reached by
McIlvaine Company in World Cleanroom Market. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)
Consumables Revenues ($Millions)
Subject 2014
Total 7,114
Disposable Clothing 739
Gloves 1,478
Laundry 1,361
Paper 113
Reusable Clothing 763
Supplies 1,812
Wipes 848
There has been a decade old debate regarding the choice between reusable and
disposable clothing. The aggregate expenditure of over $2 billion for reusable
clothing plus the laundering of this clothing is considerably more than the
investment in disposable clothing.
Arguments in favor of the reusables are greater comfort, high quality and impact
on the environment. These garments are typically rented rather than purchased.
The garment launder may also supply other consumables. This potentially
eliminates multiple sourcing.
Arguments in favor of the single-use garments are consistency and avoidance of
water pollution. When a garment is manufactured in a carefully controlled
environment and then packaged in an air tight container prior to shipment to the
cleanroom, there is an assurance of consistency. Suppliers argue that with
reusables, the operator is at the mercy of the launderer. The environmental
argument is that the greenhouse gas generation by manufacturing of many
disposables is more than offset by the potential water pollution from garments
which may contain harmful contaminants.
Recent studies on garment quality versus particulate loading in the cleanroom
show that motion is a bigger factor than had been previously considered. Those
rooms with more motion but equal quality hardware and consumables will show
higher particulate levels than those with less motion.
Historically, the semiconductor industry embraced reusables whereas the
pharmaceutical industry utilized single-use garments. There was concern that
pathogens might not be removed in the laundering process. In recent years, this
trend has shifted. Many pharmaceutical plants now use reusable garments.
