ABB - Booth #3269

 

ABB  is automating FGD systems with combustion optimization. Air Quality Monitoring is a Real Time System for Environmental Monitoring that has been developed in accordance with EEC directives relevant to emission monitoring and control of pollutants from large combustion plants.

 

Air Quality Monitoring is designed to provide collection, evaluation and storage of environmental data for the sake of air quality and environment safeguard and health protection inside and outside the power plant. ABB also supplies optimization systems. One of the components is a carbon in ash monitor using microwave technology. Additional sensors monitor coal flow. It has a $5 million contract for automation of Montana Power Coalstrip 1 & 2. Combustion efficiency is important in reducing raw SO2 quantities. This translates in to either more allowances or less reagent consumption.

 

ABB, this year won a $36 million order to refurbish and increase the efficiency of a coal-fired power plant in South Africa. The contract, signed with the state-owned utility Eskom, will extend the life span of the Tutuka 6x609 MW power plant at Standerton in the east of the country.

 

ABB furnishes a number of products which are used in FGD systems but are not customized for this service. This includes drives and distributed control systems.

 

ALSTOM - Booth #4207

 

ALSTOM, through Bechtel, was awarded the fabric filters, wet limestone FGD and wet precipitators for the two 600 MW Elm Road (Oak Creek) coal-fired generators. Since fabric filters are the most efficient particulate removal option, wet FGD is the most efficient SO2 removal option and wet precipitators are the most efficient option for SO3 reduction, this system will be a model for the industry in the future.

 

Here are recent wet limestone orders for ALSTOM.

Babcock Power Environmental Inc. – Booth #3906

 

Babcock Power Environmental Inc. (BPE), along with its affiliate Riley Power Inc., (together referred to as Babcock Power) provide fully integrated environmental solutions for utility power plants, waste-to-energy facilities, and large industrial applications. BPE  has recently received a contract for the design, supply, and erection of  Wet Flue Gas Desulfurization System  (WFGD)  from Santee Cooper, a state-owned utility headquartered in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, for their new coal-fired Units 3&4 at Cross Station. The design SO2 removal efficiency is 95 percent. The contract will be completed in 2007.

 

The contract includes the design and supply of a single WFGD absorber tower for each utilizing bi-directional spray levels, two mist eliminator levels and an integral gypsum reaction sump. The absorber tower is a concrete structure with an acid brick lining. This material was selected as the preferred method of addressing the high chloride levels anticipated (50,000 PPM) in the limestone slurry media. The design is one absorber tower for each Unit without a bypass. Santee Cooper selected this arrangement to provide the required reliability.

 

BPEI is responsible for coordinating the supply and erection of all equipment from BPEI shops and numerous suppliers, including the absorber tower from Stebbins Engineering. The proposed construction plan takes into consideration all of the key elements of space, schedule, and equipment usage for this plant.

Bechtel Power – Booth #4003

 

Bechtel is a global engineering, construction and project management company with more than a century of experience on complex projects in challenging locations.

 

Privately owned with headquarters in San Francisco, Bechtel has 40 offices around the world and 40,000 employees. Bechtel had revenues of $17.4 billion in 2004 and has been the No. 1 ranked U.S. contractor seven years running. 

 

Bechtel, Cinergy/PSI, and General Electric Company have signed a letter of intent to study the feasibility of constructing a commercial, integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) generating station. This is the first plant of its kind announced under a recently proposed GE-Bechtel alliance. 

 

PSI Energy, the Indiana operating company of Cinergy Corp., would own and operate the facility.  Cinergy/PSI is considering several sites, including the site of its coal-fired station in Edwardsport, IN.  The plant would produce 500 to 600 MW of electricity to help meet increased electrical demand over the next decade. The letter of intent is the first step toward reaching a contract to design and construct the plant. Earlier this month, GE and Bechtel announced their intent to develop a standard commercial offering for integrated gasification combined cycle projects in the United States.

 

Bechtel completed the first foreign-owned power plant in China, with an exceptional record of safety and diversity. The 724 MW, coal-fired Meizhou Wan project also was Bechtel's first lump-sum turnkey job in that country.

 

ALSTOM, through Bechtel, was awarded the fabric filters, wet limestone FGD and wet precipitators for the two 600 MW Elm Road (Oak Creek) coal-fired generators. Since fabric filters are the most efficient particulate removal option, wet FGD is the most efficient SO2 removal option and wet precipitators are the most efficient option for SO3 reduction, this system will be a model for the industry in the future.

 

Bibb and Associates, Inc. – Booth #1430

Bibb and Associates, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Kiewit Corporation, can help with comprehensive evaluation of applicable air quality control regulations and thorough evaluation of alternative solutions.  As an engineering firm with a substantial design/build background, Bibb can develop accurate estimates of total project cost, construction schedule and outage duration.  With our experience in coal and air quality control projects, Bibb can help in each of the three steps towards compliance:

 

  1. Gather information to minimize uncertainty.  This includes reviewing the current status of plants, reviewing applicable (or potentially applicable) regulations, and evaluating the efficacy, performance and costs of emission reduction technologies.
  2. Develop the compliance plan.  Important considerations include creating a “what-if” matrix to address regulatory and technological uncertainties, maximizing operational flexibility, leading to plan and/or system-wide compliance.
  3. Implement the plan.  This includes making operational changes, detailed engineering of solutions, and turnkey installation of technology.

The uncertainties currently present in the regulatory process complicate planning activities.  But through careful evaluation of retrofit technologies, Bibb is able to eliminate the uncertainties associated with equipment performance, implementation schedule and construction costs.  We are a flexible company that is able to take on a variety of project roles, including:

  In addition to our air quality control services, Bibb, TIC-The Industrial Company and T.E. Ibberson have formed the CAIRtech team to provide a unique vertically integrated wet FGD system on an EPC basis.  Please see the CAIRtech listing for more details.

Burns & McDonnell – Booth #4223

 

Seminole Electric Cooperative has selected Burns & McDonnell to design the $1.2 billion, coal-fueled 750 MW Seminole 3. In addition to detailed design service, Burns & McDonnell will provide construction field services. Construction is expected to start in October 2008, with completion in May 2012.

 

Westar Energy, Inc. has chosen Burns & McDonnell to perform site studies for the company’s future generation units. Westar Energy’s goal is to have new generation available by 2008 to meet the customers’ increasing demands. The company first plans to add peaking units of 50 to 150 MW. Westar Energy will also evaluate site for a future coal-fueled power plant. Westar expects the site evaluation phase to be complete by the end of 2005.

 

More than 25 years of FGD system studies and design have given Burns & McDonnell a familiarity with key FGD suppliers and processes which leads to efficient and economical operations for new units or retrofit/rebuild projects. Burns & McDonnell also performs system evaluations to improve removal efficiency and reduce operating and maintenance costs. The source testing group, established in 1970 for utility stack testing projects, now provides a wide range of services for industries and utilities. Engineers, scientists, and technicians develop plans, schedule required tests, and provide test data that meet all regulatory requirements. Burns & McDonnell's test crews have performed thousands of tests for hundreds of utility and industrial clients.

 

Burns & McDonnell recently completed a study for future reduction of particulate, sulfur oxide, and nitrogen oxide emissions from multiple coal-fired boilers. As part of the study, 39 processes were evaluated on the basis of technical merit, cost, and synergy of control for multiple emissions (particulate, SOx, and NOx). The processes investigated included proven commercially available processes, demonstration scale processes, and pilot scale research and development processes.

 

Burns & McDonnell recently completed a major flue gas desulfurization (FGD) retrofit project for the Municipal Power & Light Department in Henderson, Kentucky. Station Two is a coal-fired electric generating station consisting of two coal-fired generating units with a combined capacity of 337 MW. The FGD systems were installed as part of the utility's compliance plan to meet the Phase 1 sulfur dioxide reduction requirements of Title IV of the 1990 Clean Air Act Amendments. Each FGD system is a magnesium-promoted wet lime process with a single stainless steel absorber module for each generating unit. A new chimney with two liners was constructed to exhaust the wet flue gas from the absorber modules. These FGD systems were two of the lowest cost (in $/kW) of all FGD systems recently constructed in the U.S. and the project was completed under budget and on schedule.

 

This experience is significant in the view of the McIlvaine Company. The reason is that the cost of wet limestone scrubbing has risen significantly. Utilities therefore need to take a closer look at lime scrubbing instead of automatically selecting wet limestone.

Clyde Bergemann – Booth #3247

 

Buildup on the gas-to-gas heat exchangers can be a problem. Ian Carruthers of Clyde Bergemann joined the networking discussions at Power-Gen Europe and explained that their Jet Blower™ was used to keep these units clean at Power-Gen Europe. Gas-to-gas heat exchangers have several roles in FGD. One is to reheat gases to avoid the steam plume. This is required in some countries. Another is to reduce the gas temperature entering the precipitator in order to improve SO3 and particulate capture in the system. A third may be to ensure that sulfuric acid mist does not deposit locally.

CAIRtech  - Booth #3453 (Shared w/TIC)

 

CAIRtech is a joint venture between TIC - The Industrial Company, Bibb and Associates, Inc. and T.E. Ibberson Company.  This organization has developed a new twist for designing and building wet FGD installations on a full-scope, EPC basis.  Instead of arranging the FGD process equipment horizontally, the CAIRtech solution arranges the equipment vertically within a concrete shell.  Their cost-saving arrangement houses a spray tower absorber and associated process equipment in a slip-formed concrete structure that also serves as the support structure for the flue gas exhaust stack.  The benefits of this arrangement include: 

 

·         Smaller footprint for space-constrained retrofit sites

·          Approximately 40 to 70 percent less space

·         Lower total installed cost

·         Ease of construction

·         Significant reductions in lay-down space requirements during construction

·         Reduced interference with existing plant operations

·         Fewer modifications to existing facilities (above/below ground)

·         Reduced reliance on existing structures within the plant simplifies design issues

·         Shorter schedule

·         Fewer ancillary structures

·         Improved access and maintainability

·         Fewer interconnecting process lines and utilities

·         Shorter runs of large ductwork

·         Ability to standardize FGD process layout from project to project.

 

This concept provides tangible cost, schedule and quality benefits for both retrofit projects and new plant designs.  While currently designed to address only desulfurization, the CAIRtech team is also exploring an enhancement to their arrangement that would allow for the incorporation of a wet ESP.

Doosan signed a 435 billion Won EPC contract with Korea Southern Power to supply and install boilers, turbine generators, and other main equipment to the 1,000 MW (2 x 500 MW) coal-fired Hadong Thermal Power Plant Units 7 & 8, to be built next to units 1 through 6 in Gadeok-ri, Geumseong-myeon, Hadong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do. According to the contract, Doosan is to design, manufacture, install, and test the boilers and turbine generators by March 2009. Song Eun Hong, Executive Vice President of Doosan and head of the Thermal Power Plant BG, said “Both Korean and foreign power plant companies were very interested in the project since it was to be carried out through Island EPC contracts, but Doosan became the primary contractor after a comprehensive evaluation in terms of price and capabilities.” (Island EPC contracts means there are different contracts for boiler and turbine generators.)

 

Doosan is continuing to develop Wet FGD systems. Computer analysis of absorption tower and FGD duct flow is done to achieve

 

 

Doosan has a miniature adsorber tower and flow test rig for

 

 

Doosan will complete construction in 2007 of the FGD systems for the Taean 7 & 8 coal-fired power plants. These are each 500 MW. In 2004 Doosan completed FGD projects for YongHung 1 & 2. Each is 800 MW and was fitted with a single absorber. These systems in Korea are forced oxidation with commercial grade gypsum production. Reheat of the flue gas is accomplished with a gas-to-gas heat exchanger.

 

Doosan has a license from Marsulex which expires in 2011. Doosan has its own design of absorber shelf to improve liquid distribution. The new Taean units will be guaranteed for 93 percent efficiency. Dust removal through the scrubber is guaranteed at 50 percent with 40 mg/Sm3 at the inlet and 20 mg/Sm3 at the FGD outlet.

Integrating digital bus-based technology into the design of a wet scrubber can reduce total project cost by approximately $3.9 million, according to Emerson Power and Water. This represents a five percent savings in total construction costs compared with the same project implemented using a traditional hardwired I/O approach.

 

Emerson Process Management has installed its SmartProcess® Fleet Emissions Optimizer module to optimize SO2 emissions at three Xcel Energy Denver-area power generation facilities.

 

Emerson supplies pH control instrumentation to cope with the abrasive and scaling tendencies of FGD slurries. The following individuals from Emerson will be on the stand with information on the pH control experience in power plant FGD systems.

 

Emerson Process Management has won a contract to upgrade the combustion and turbine control systems at PPL Generation LLC’s 1,473 MW Brunner Island (PA) plant. The Ovation expert control system from Emerson’s Power & Water Solutions industry center will replace existing WDPF combustion controls at the plant’s three coal-fired units. In addition, Ovation turbine controls will be installed at Unit 1 to upgrade the existing WDPF system and at Unit 2 to replace a mechanical hydraulic system. Ovation is part of the PlantWeb digital plant architecture.

Foster Wheeler North America Corp. – Booth #3608

 

Foster Wheeler will supply the boiler island for the 30 MW Wilton 10 biomass plant in the UK. SembCorp is building the $114 million plant on Teesside, northeast UK. The plant will burn around 300,000 tonnes of green and recycled wood per year. Fuel will come from a variety of sources, including specially grown energy crops, forestry logs, sawmill chips and recycled timber.

 

Foster Wheeler has been selected to supply a pulverized coal-fired boiler to Bechtel Power Corporation for the 274 MW Two Elk Generating facility in Wyoming. Work on the project will start immediately and the plant is scheduled for completion in 2008. "Our relationship with Bechtel Power goes back many years with a long history of successfully completed projects. Foster Wheeler is currently supplying a 400 MWe PC boiler to Bechtel Power for a similar project in the United States, and we are delighted with this recent award," said Bernard H. Cherry, president and chief executive officer, Foster Wheeler Global Power Group.

 

Fru-Con – Booth #1445

 

Fru-Con is one of the largest construction and engineering firms in the U.S. It delivers the complete project solution, from design, through procurement, construction, start-up and even maintenance. Fru-Con has recently been involved in a number of combined cycle plants and for the precipitator contract on an oil- fired boiler in Florida.

 

GE Energy – Booth #3911

 

GE is involved with many products and services in many of the branches of the FGD Decision Tree. The “Layered Combustion” paper given at Power-Gen Europe is the result of the work of the group which was formerly EER in Irvine, California. They have one of the largest pilot furnace facilities in North America. This capability provides resources to develop optimization systems. These result in increased efficiency and therefore less SO2 per kWh.

 

The former KVB Enertec group supplies the continuous emission monitors which measure and report the SO2 emissions and are used to maximize reagent utilization.

 

The former BHA group furnishes bags for dry FGD with a number of options from the fiber to the bag type and even the coatings or laminates. Since FGD systems remove some particulate but are limited by the potential gypsum contamination, it is important to coordinate precipitator upgrades with FGD construction. This group of GE is a leader in precipitator upgrades.

 

GE Water is now part of GE Infrastructure. In fact GE announced that there are now six major businesses. Dave Calhoun is Vice Chairman of Infrastructure. George Oliver is responsible for GE Water and John Krenicki is responsible for GE Energy. John Rice is now Vice Chairman of Industrial. This includes Fanuc, equipment services and many other groups.

 

GE water is involved in a number of branches of FGD Decisions. The chemicals needed for separation of the metals from the wastewater along with anti-scalants, defoamers, polymers, etc. are supplied for this application. The equipment group supplies the membrane systems which can be used for selenium removal and other wastewater purification needs.

Haldor Topsoe, Inc. – Booth #5430

 

The company is a major supplier of catalysts for SCR and has a low conversion SO2/SO3 catalyst. At the Niles plant Haldor Topsoe supplied a catalytic SO2 system. The end product is sulfuric acid. One drawback has been that HCl is not captured. However, with a chloride pre-scrubber mercury and HCl would be captured. In light of the escalating prices of limestone this system should not be overlooked.

 

Hitachi America Ltd. – Booth #3613 

 

Hitachi was awarded the contracts for FGD at six coal-fired thermal power plants, two in Spain and four in Portugal, totaling 2,162 MW in generating capacity. This order followed the previous contract for FGD at a thermal power station in Poland (equivalent to 800 MW) last year. Power plants where FGD will be retrofitted are as follows: Spain -  Hidroelectrica del Cantabrico: Abono Thermal Power Plant, Unit No.2 (556 MW), Soto Thermal Power Plant, Unit No.3 (350 MW). Portuguese Republic - Companhia Portuguese de Producao de Electricidade,S.A.: Sines Thermal Power Plant, Unit No.1-4 (314 MW × 4).

 

Horiba Instruments, Inc. – Booth #5524 

 

Horiba Instruments, Inc. is a leading supplier of continuous emissions monitoring systems (CEMS), Process and Ambient gas analyzers. With over fifty years of experience, the company has installed over 10,000 systems worldwide.

Horiba's ENDA-4000 Series Continuous Emissions Monitoring (CEM) Systems have been specifically designed to continuously measure the concentrations of NOx, SO2, CO, CO2 and O2 in the stack gas from stationary sources at a low installed cost and reliably with minimum maintenance. This latest series in Horiba’s long line of ENDA type CEMS (over 10,000 installed worldwide) uses Horiba technology for gas measurement with fully-extractive sampling. The ENDA-4000 Series CEMS is a standardized analysis system that can be housed in a single-bay NEMA-4, 4X or 12 enclosure, an open rack, an environmentally-controlled shelter, or transportable case. When combined with Horiba standard sample conditioning options, this system is a cost-effective solution for compliance monitoring offering the flexibility required for most applications. The standard ENDA-4000 Series system can be combined with a variety of sample probes and filter assemblies, a stack gas opacity monitor, stack gas flow monitor, THC, NH3, HCl and other gas analyzers and a Data Acquisition and Reporting System (DARS) to completely fulfill any continuous monitoring requirements under 40 CFR Part 75 or Part 60.

The ENDA-4000 Series CEMS utilize either the advanced XS or XE instrument to measure up to five gases and to control system functions and operation. (If an XE instrument is included in the CEMS an “E” is included in the model designation, i.e. ENDA-E4000.) The XS or XE instruments utilize Horiba’s patented cross flow modulated non-dispersive infrared (NDIR) technology for measurement of NO, SO2, CO and CO2.
 

The analyzers for NO, SO2 and CO are designed to automatically compensate for the interference of CO2 and H2O in the sample gas by electronically subtracting their effect from the measured concentration. Horiba’s patented magnetopneumatic technology is utilized for measurement of O2.

Invensys - Booth #3073

 

Typically, pH sensors are installed in line either directly on a circulation line or a slip-stream from the process. Process Fluid temperatures are generally around 120° at approximately 20 to 50 psig. Flow rates are usually very high, often in excess of 100 gpm. Additionally, the process fluid is saturated with lime, fly ash, and entrained solids. Though the control point is normally 5-7 pH, depending on the reagent, it is not uncommon to see pH values as low as 2 during startup and process upsets.

 

The greatest challenge of this measurement is the severity of the installation environment. Abrasion and fouling necessitate frequent cleaning and recalibration. Sensor life is often very short. Replacement of the sensor in just a few months is not uncommon. Because of the perceived unreliability, multiple sensors are often installed at the same location , increasing the installed capital cost.

 

Foxboro says its 87IA sensor has successfully demonstrated superior performance in this application.

One way that reduced maintenance is accomplished is through the use of diagnostic capabilities of the 8701TPH Intelligent Transmitter. When interfaced with a Foxboro intelligent pH sensor, multiple diagnostic tools can be employed to help determine when maintenance is required, as well as the overall health of the sensor.

 INVISTA’s organic diacids, both Adi-pure® adipic acid and Dibasic Acid (DBA) are available to enhance FGD operation. Organic diacids improve scrubbing efficiency by improving the dissolution rate of limestone into the liquid slurry, buffering the slurry, promoting the formation of the sulfite ion and driving more SO2 into the liquid phase. Organic additives allow scrubber downsizing; reduced L/G ratio in wet scrubbers; less maintenance through reduced scaling, plugging and exit gas corrosion; less power consumption by slurry pumps; improved ability to handle swings in inlet SO2; ability to over-scrub and reduced limestone consumption. 

Adi-pure® is a dry flowable solid of high, consistent purity and is manufactured in plants in the United States, Canada, the U.K. and Singapore. DBA is available in bulk aqueous solution of concentrations of 20-80 percent. It generally is less expensive and dissolves faster than adipic acid. Contracts can be negotiated to ensure reliability of supply.

Kiewit Industrial Company– Booth #1430

 

TIC – The Industrial Company, Bibb and Associates, Inc. and T.E. Ibberson Company have formed CAIRtech, a joint venture organization for designing and building wet FGD installations on a full-scope, EPC basis with a new twist.  Instead of arranging the FGD process equipment horizontally, the CAIRtech solution arranges the equipment vertically within a concrete cylinder.  Their cost-saving arrangement houses a spray tower absorber and associated process equipment in a slip-formed concrete structure that also serves as the support structure for the flue gas exhaust stack.  The benefits of this arrangement include: 

·         Smaller footprint for space-constrained retrofit sites

·         Approximately 40 to 70 percent less space

·         Lower total installed cost

·         Ease of construction

·         Significant reductions in lay-down space requirements during construction

·         Reduced interference with existing plant operations

·         Fewer modifications to existing facilities (above/below ground)

·         Reduced reliance on existing structures within the plant simplifies design issues

·         Shorter schedule

·         Fewer ancillary structures

·         Improved access and maintainability

·         Fewer interconnecting process lines and utilities

·         Shorter runs of large ductwork

·         Ability to standardize FGD process layout from project to project.

 

This concept provides tangible cost, schedule and quality benefits for both retrofit projects and new plant designs. While currently designed to address only desulfurization, the CAIRtech team is also exploring an enhancement to their arrangement that would allow for the incorporation of a wet ESP.

Parsons has been involved in engineering and support services for a large number of FGD systems.

 

Worley Group Ltd., an Australian oil and gas engineering company, agreed to buy Parsons E&C Corp. for $245 million to expand in power plant engineering and widen the range of countries in which it operates. Worley, which is working with Parsons E&C and its former parent Parsons Corp. in a contract to restore Iraqi oil output, will be renamed WorleyParsons after the acquisition. The combined group will have more than 9,500 employees in 29 countries.

 

Experience and expertise was developed through designing more than 150 coal-fired units from 25 to 900 MW and stations as large as 2,700 MW that burn all types of coal. 12,500 MW of FGD systems are either completed or currently in progress. Progress Energy is selecting the company to manage its AQC program for planning and implementing SCR systems at three units along with FGD systems at 11 units, totaling approximately 4,500 MW. In addition, WorsleyParsons has air quality programs for other clients to install 15 units of wet FGD systems on existing coal-fired plants.

Pullman Power – Booth #3656

 

Pullman Power has completed over 10,000 chimney projects including the five tallest chimneys in the world. Louisville Gas & Electric's (LG&E) 2,000 MW Mill Creek coal-fired power plant was required to add a wet scrubbing system to comply with EPA pollution control guidelines. As part of the wet scrubber installation a re-heater system was also installed. The re-heaters are designed for full flow heating of the treated flue gas prior to its release into the atmosphere. Unfortunately, the re-heater proved inefficient and reduced the plant's energy production by approximately three percent. In addition, the re-heater system resulted in continual maintenance problems from leaking tubes, and the flue gas left a sulfuric acid residue as it passed through the stack. Over a period of time this residue caused severe deterioration of the carbon steel linings in the plant's three 630 foot stacks.

 

After evaluating the problem Mill Creek decided to remove the re-heater system, replace the stack's old titanium linings with "wall paper" linings made from C-276, a high nickel alloy, and install a new liquid collection system. Because C-276 does not rust or deteriorate in environments where the acidity level is 2.5-pH, the material is ideal for stacks subjected to sulfuric acid contamination.

 

Pullman Power, LLC, a Structural Group company, was awarded the contract to retrofit the stack linings and Alden Dynaflow received a contract to design and model the liquid collection system.

Wheelabrator Air Pollution Control was acquired by Siemens in October 2005. The company has supplied scrubber systems for FGD since the 1970s. It offers the full range of wet scrubber designs as well as spray driers. It also supplies the baghouses to capture the dry gypsum product.

 

Wheelabrator Has 485-MW Coleman 1-3 FGD Order Wheelabrator has the Western Kentucky Energy K.C. Coleman FGD order. The project was originally awarded to FLS but was cancelled when costs exceeded the budget. The project was re-bid with Wheelabrator selected for the wet limestone system. The WFGD system is designed to remove 95 percent of the SO2 from the three units. The system will consist of a Dual Flow Tray absorber using limestone forced oxidation chemistry, inlet and outlet ductwork, new booster fans, reagent preparation, wastewater treatment and gypsum dewatering systems. The construction scope also includes foundations, electrical wiring, insulation, lagging and demolition. Construction is scheduled to begin in November 2004, with startup of the system in December 2005.

 

Wheelabrator - Full-Scale Comparison of a Venturi/Dual Flow Tray and Multiple Dual Flow Trays The reference Power Station (Plant X) in West Virginia consists of 2 x 650 MW boilers with SO2 control achieved by four scrubber modules (three operating plus one standby spare) per boiler unit. Each magnesium-lime-based absorber module consists of a venturi quench section followed by a scrubbing section that utilizes a single Dual Flow Tray. In early 2000, cost analysis revealed that modifications to the current FGD system would be beneficial from an operating cost standpoint with the added benefit of increasing the overall plant SO2 removal by eliminating the current bypass condition.

 

In May 2002, Wheelabrator Air Pollution control (WAPC) was awarded a contract to perform modifications to the FGD plant. In the new design configuration, the venturi section of the inlet ductwork was removed and replaced with a full size duct section with two levels of spray headers used for quenching the inlet gas. Two new levels of high efficiency trays were installed in the absorber to accommodate the higher gas volumes and to increase the overall plant SO2 efficiency from approximately 85 percent to 98 percent. The gas side pressure drop is expected to drop from nearly 12 in. w.c. to approximately 8 in. w.c. with the new arrangement. Modifications to the existing recycle pumps and operating chemistry were not required to achieve this performance enhancement.

 

In April 2003, modifications to the first absorber were completed and the module was placed in service. A side-by-side comparison was made of full scale test data on the modified absorber module and the existing venturi/single tray tower, see Figure 1.  * The L/G values assume the existing FGD system (Module 1B) is the baseline case and has been assigned a value of 1.0. The L/G for upgraded module 1A is a percentage change compared to the baseline case. The results are a clear indication that the modified module 1A is out-performing the existing towers. As can be seen, module 1A is processing approximately 18 percent more flue gas while simultaneously achieving higher SO2 removal values at nearly identical pH levels and magnesium concentrations. This indicates higher mass transfer rates are being achieved with the multi-tray arrangement. Reagent feed flow rates to each absorber (142 gpm vs. 121 gpm) are also consistent with the conclusion that module 1A is processing more flue gas. Additionally, absorber system pressure drop values (6.1 inches w.c.) are much less than the existing towers (11.9 inches w.c.) and result in lower operating costs for the facility. Michael Hoydick of WAPC concludes that the results of this test program suggest that mass transfer rates of a multiple tray absorber design can be approximately 20 to 40 percent higher than a single tray design. This results in equivalent tower performance at lower L/G ratios.

At its May 9, 2005 annual meeting, Zenon estimated FGD wastewater treatment as a $10-30 million opportunity for each of the 100 new coal-fired plants under development. Zenon integrates biological selenium and mercury separation technologies with membrane bioreactors.

 

 Zenon will supply the Yuhuan Power Plant, located in Zhejiang Province, China with its immersed ultrafiltration water treatment technology. The company’s ZeeWeed® membranes will pre-treat seawater before it is desalinated with reverse osmosis membranes. The ultrafiltration system will produce 76,800 cubic meters per day (or just over 20 million gallons) of high quality feedwater, which will then be led to a desalination process for the production of 34,560 cubic meters per day of water, once the plant is running. This site will serve as a key reference site for Zenon. “We’re very excited about this project, which is one of the world’s largest installations of its type,” said Andrew Benedek, Zenon Chairman and CEO. "Our ZeeWeed® technology is the ideal complement to extending the life and improving the performance of reverse osmosis membranes, particularly for seawater desalination." The Yuhuan power plant will house four sets of 1,000 MW coal-fired steam turbine generators, which will be built in two phases. The first phase of construction is scheduled for completion in 2007 while the second is set to be commissioned in 2009.
