Condensate polishers add operating reliability and flexibility

Many of today’s advanced steam generators favor either an all-volatile treatment or oxygenated treatment chemistry program, both of which require strict maintenance of an ultra-pure boiler feedwater or condensate system. Those requirements are many times at odds with the lower-quality water sources, such as graywater, available for plant makeup and cooling water. Adding a condensate polisher can be a simple, cost-effective solution.

U.S. rivers next massive power source?

Major U.S. rivers could soon feed several underwater turbine arrays with their massive power potential if some of the more than 100 projects that a Houston-based alternative energy firm hasfiled with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) are approved. Free Flow Power Corp. (FFP) has developed a hydrokinetic turbinegenerator system that extracts energy from moving water without requiring the construction of new dams or diversion.
