02.11.21 -- Accurate Combustion Gas Measurement In Coal-Fired Power Plant

A leading supplier of landfill gas extraction and recovery systems located in the Midwest region of the U.S. relies on flow meters from Fluid Components International (FCI) for gas flow measurements in landfills. The company has developed hundreds of landfill gas system flares and extraction system skids that are in operation worldwide, all of which require accurate gas flow measurement.

The need for carbon monoxide equivalent (COe) monitoring in coal-fired power plants is increasing dramatically. A shift toward heat rate efficiency is occurring within the coal-fired boiler community. Increased competitiveness in electricity rates combined with indications of future limits expected by the EPA are driving the need to actively measure COe in order to improve combustion efficiency and minimize CO.
