Thermoelectric power generation involves facilities that produce electricity through the combustion of fossil fuels (such as coal, gas or oil) or nuclear fuels.
Among the various industries, the power sector ranks as one of the largest consumers of water. This is primarily attributed to its extensive use of water for boiler feed and for cooling purposes, particularly for generating demineralized water.
The utilization of high-purity water is essential for maintaining the effective operation of steam generation systems that spin a turbine connected to a generator, producing electricity, reducing the frequency of blowdowns, and preventing corrosion and damage to equipment. However, the large volumes of wastewater generated, such as cooling tower blowdown, require careful treatment and management. Within this context, reliability, efficiency, and adherence to environmental regulations stand as critical parameters.
Our wide range of cutting-edge technologies for water and wastewater reuse include:
DEMIN TREATMENT to enable the generation of high-quality boiler feed water
PFRO / DESALTER which reduces blowdown quantity and increases cooling tower cycles of concentration (CoC), thereby minimizing makeup water requirements.
MVC process that further reduces blowdown quantity, ensuring optimal resource utilization and environmental sustainability.
Together, these technologies have enabled multiple power stations around the world to reduce their ongoing wastewater costs while further reducing their impact on the environment.
