White Papers and Case Studies For The Power Generation Industry

  1. Droughts And Blackouts: How Water Shortages Cost India Enough Energy To Power Sri Lanka 7/28/2017

    India is making great strides to aggressively expand its renewable energy capacity. But the country's power sector remains highly reliant on thermoelectric plants, with high demand for water for cooling. That means that droughts, like the one caused last year by weak monsoons, can shut off the power, hampering the economy and potentially endangering lives.

  2. A New Approach To Early Biofilm Detection 11/14/2013

    To assist industrial operators in managing and preventing biofilm, Italian start-up ALVIM Srl created a monitoring system that provides early warning detection of bacterial biofilm growing on pipelines, tanks, heat exchangers, RO membranes, and other equipment.

  3. 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. 

  4. Eliminate CIP And Cut Wastewater Disposal In Half With CCD 7/31/2014

    A high water recovery rate is essential for this well-known soy protein manufacturer.

  5. Filtration System For Thermoelectric Plant 11/29/2020

    AES Gener is the second generating company in Chile and the main thermoelectric generator, and provides 4.068 MW (including Guacolda S.A.), equivalent to a share of 22%, whereas 3.797 MW of thermoelectric capacity and 271 MW of hydroelectric capacity.

  6. Combined-Cycle Water Treatment System 7/17/2017

    The client was in need of both a raw water and wastewater treatment system for its new 1,100-megawatt (MW) natural gasfired combined cycle power station that was being built to replace an existing 400-MW coal-fired plant that had been decommissioned previously. Veolia Water Technologies was contacted to engineer, procure and supply a 6,000 gallons per minute (GPM) raw water treatment system and a 1,200-GPM wastewater treatment system.

  7. Small Changes, Big Impact: How A U.S. Utility Fleet Reclaimed Demineralizer Efficiency Across 12 Plants 7/23/2026

    Operational drift in demineralizer systems often leads to hidden chemical and water waste. By re-establishing precise performance baselines and refining operational practices, facilities can significantly lower annual chemical spend, reduce water consumption, and recover valuable operating time.

  8. Benefits Of Clean Power Plan Are Measureable – Drop For Drop 10/17/2014

    Since EPA released its proposed Clean Power Plan (CPP) in June of this year, the plan has been a hot topic in every state.

  9. Compliance Tips For EPA's New Power Plant Regulations 11/10/2015

    Now that the final rule has been published in the Federal Register, the stage is set for official implementation of the U.S. EPA’s Steam Electric Power Generating Effluent Guidelines on Jan. 4, 2016.

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