ACTIFLO Answers The Call For Advanced Water Treatment At Power Generation Facility
A state-of-the-art 695-MW power generation facility was recently installed in the Northeastern U.S. to serve the country's highest demand market. Its innovative power generation technologies, emissions control systems, and process efficiencies make it one of the cleanest, most efficient and technologically advanced supercritical pulverized coal (SPC) power plants in the U.S.
A technologically advanced water treatment system was desired to meet the needs of the new power generation facility. The client contracted Veolia Water Solutions & Technologies to design and build a river water treatment system to provide make-up water for the power plant. About 80 percent of the water will serve the plant's cooling tower, and the remainder will be used for steam generation, scrubbing and other purposes.
Veolia Water designed and built the new water treatment facility using its proprietary ACTIFLO® high-rate clarification, multimedia filtration and reverse osmosis (RO) technologies integrated with the client's existing equipment to minimize cost. The river water treatment system is designed to handle raw water with salinity as high as 500 mg/l and produce water quality of 200 mg/l total dissolved solids (TDS) continuously at average demand.
