White Papers and Case Studies For The Power Generation Industry

51. Innovative Utilities Reducing Water-Energy Nexus Pressures 9/14/2016

    With large parts of the country facing drought conditions, including California, Massachusetts, and Alabama, small communities and cities alike are facing increased water-energy nexus pressures.

52. A Promise To Our Children To Save Water In Texas 5/4/2015

    It’s no secret that Texas is currently in the midst of a multi-year drought – yet the vast majority of our electricity comes from sources that contribute to this prolonged drought, namely coal, nuclear, and natural gas. All of these energy sources require copious amounts of water to produce electricity.

53. Water Shortages Cost Indian Energy Companies Billions 2/21/2018

    There's a hidden threat to Indian energy companies' revenues — water.

54. Membrane Technologies In Containerized Units Allow For Installation In A Small Footprint 4/23/2018

    After an international tender process, the Israel Electric Company (IEC) chose Fluence to design, manufacture, and supply containerized ultrapure water production systems for use as makeup water for heat-recovery steam generators (HRSG) and for NOx emission reduction at recently upgraded power plants across Israel. More than 15 units of 20 m3/h production modules, each fitted in two 40-foot shipping containers, were provided to seven power plants. Their compact design allowed for ease of installation, operation, and maintenance while meeting the customer’s demanding engineering standards.

55. Controlling Biofouling In Governador José Richa Power Plant, Brazil 11/26/2024

    Read about an extensive study that was carried out to evaluate the ability of the HOD UV system to control biofouling in the Governador José Richa Power Plant. 

56. Texas' Evolving Energy Reality: Clean Energy Uses Less Water 6/14/2016

    It’s been an interesting time for water in Texas. Beyond the incredibly wet and cool spring we’ve been having, Memorial Day saw the second year in a row of record-breaking floods.

57. How Energy Choices Influence Water Quality 3/18/2024

    Using earth-friendly energy and conserving water supports the fight against climate change and preserves our freshwater reserves.

58. Design-Build Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) System — New Harquahala Generating Project 3/3/2015

    The New Harquahala Generating Project serves as a power and electrical wholesaler in the Southwestern United States. To fill the need for growing energy consumption in the region, this facility was built to provide power to the area.

59. FGD Purge Treatment In Coal-Fired Power Generation 3/6/2015

    Stricter environmental policies and regulations worldwide are changing how industry approaches all aspects of business. Likewise, EU (European Union) environmental policies governing air, soil, and water quality have become progressively stringent.

    These policy changes affect the power industry’s balance of meeting growing European energy demands with compliance to environmental standards. In order to conform with EU standards specific for flue gas, a coalfired generation plant (at the time owned by Endesa, Italia, S.p.A.) in Monfalcone, Italy, undertook the measure of installing a state-of-the-art FGD (flue gas desulfurization) system at their facility. This system would remove SO2 (sulfur dioxide) from the emissions for the 336 MW coal-fired power station.

60. If Israel Can Find Common Ground Around The Environment, Why Can't Texas? 1/12/2017

    Deep in the Israeli desert is an academic institute that is building peace in the region by putting nature at its center. The Arava Institute, in partnership with Ben Gurion University, brings students from Israel, Palestine, Jordan, and around the world to find common ground around environmental problems and build trust — and peace — from there.
