Eco-Tec Awarded Water Treatment System Contract By PPGA

Pickering, Ontario – Eco-Tec is proud to announce that it has recently been awarded the contract for the water treatment system by Public Power Generation Agency (PPGA) located in Hastings, Nebraska for their Whelan Energy Center, Unit 2.

"As the demand for power increases, industrial power plant capacity continues to require expansion. Eco-Tec's technology uniquely addresses this need, and we are extremely pleased to be working with Black & Veatch on this project." stated Mike Dejak, Eco-Tec President.

Black & Veatch of Kansas City, MO are the owner's engineers for the project, who evaluated multiple proposals for the supply of water for the 220 MW expansion unit. Key considerations for this award are attributed to Eco-Tec's proprietary technology that enables the production of high purity water in a simple, reliable package, without the need for mixed-bed polishers.

The integrated water treatment components for this project include two trains of Double-Pass Eco-RO™ and Recoflo® polishers which will result in a demineralized water quality of less than 0.1 µS/cm.
