Water and Wastewater Solutions For The Power Generation Industry

71. Hydro Schemes Have An Impact In Scotland 6/17/2016

    At the end of 2011, the total hydroelectric installed capacity in the United Kingdom accounted for approximately 1.67 Gigawatts (GW) of installed electrical generating capacity, being 1.9% of the current total UK generating capacity, and 14% of the UK's renewable energy generating capacity.

72. Design And Care Of Reverse Osmosis Systems, Part 2: Upstream Equipment 1/14/2019

    The success of a new reverse osmosis (RO) membrane system is often directly related to its pretreatment. The previous section of this article discussed RO design issues and introduced how a pilot study should include a study of its probable pretreatment equipment since the pretreatment performance will directly affect the performance of the RO system. However, piloting the upstream processes can be challenging in sizing these components for the pilot RO unit’s low flow rate.

73. Ultrapure Water Treatment: A Market With Energy 10/15/2020

    A look at the market dynamics and drivers for ultrapure water treatment reveals multiple industries with growing demand, including one that stands above the rest.

74. Keeping The Operator In Focus: The Four Pillars Of Operator Effectiveness 8/2/2018

    This paper shows how the four pillars of operator effectiveness lead operators to greater awareness, faster response and better decisions.

75. Fractional Electrodeionization (FEDI) Technology For RO Permeate Polishing And Demineralization 5/5/2016

    Sabine Pass, a large LNG refinery in the U.S., required a membrane desalination solution to cater to its extensive process water needs in order to produce a large amount of liquefied natural gas for export.

76. Brine Management — A Necessity, Not A Luxury 3/15/2022

    Brine is everywhere: desalination plants, gas and oil drillings, energy generation plants, mines, cooling towers, food manufacturing plants, chip fabrication, and many other industries that require high volumes of water. They all generate brine as a byproduct of their processes.

77. Why Strategic Choices — And Water — Could Make People More Energy-Efficient 1/9/2017

    At my household, a new year means a new energy and water-use baseline. By that I mean, every month, I look at how much electricity and water I used in comparison to the same month the previous year — so I can try to be as efficient as possible. But I work in the energy field, and I know that’s not a typical New Year’s tradition. Most people don’t examine the trends of their energy-use or spend much time thinking about how to reduce it.

78. In-Line Ultrasonic Meters Provide Continuous Measurement For Sample Stations 5/14/2020

    Boilers, cooling towers, and reverse osmosis (RO) systems are some of the most common systems that require monitoring and chemical treatment.  Chemical treatment of boiler systems reduces scale, corrosion, and other mineral deposits. This enables the system to run more efficiently, keep heat transfer rates high and fuel costs down. To determine the proper amount of chemical to be injected into the water stream, samples of key parameters need to be taken. Instrumentation to measure ORP, pH, conductivity, temperature, pressure and flow are deployed to take these measurements.

79. First-Of-Its-Kind Zero Liquid Discharge Plant Installed In Egypt 12/30/2015

    The Egyptian Ethylene and Derivatives Company (ETHYDCO) is a joint venture company established with the purpose to produce Ethylene, Butadiene and their derivatives (Polyethylene, Poly Butadiene).

80. 8 Reasons To Revisit Quats For Cooling-Water Algae Control 7/29/2021

    The need for cooling-water systems is common among industrial applications, but the treatments needed to keep them operating at peak efficiency can change from location to location and season to season. Here is why a different type of quaternary ammonium compound (quat) algaecide has an important role to play in balancing performance, efficiency, and total lifecycle costs across many cooling-water-treatment regimens.
