In the power plant, long-term efficient generation depends on minimizing corrosion and deposition within the steam/water cycle. Therefore, sodium in the power cycle must be maintained at deficient levels to shield turbines from corrosion and scaling. Water treatment performance and purity determination have depended on sodium measurement for nearly four decades. It is crucial for […]

Optimize Transmitter Installation Ensuring a proper, consistent set-up of multiple water panel transmitters is a time-consuming, manual process prone to errors. Pure water systems often require several transmitters to monitor various parameters. To simplify this task and reduce the risk of mistakes when trying to transfer the same configuration across multiple water panel transmitters manually, […]

Monitoring and controlling highly corrosive contaminants in power water cycle chemistry can significantly impact efficiency, meeting turbine warranty requirements, and more importantly, plant safety. Furthermore, regeneration costs for acid, caustic, rinse water, and labor are considerable. A unique, deionization capacity monitoring algorithm from METTLER TOLEDO monitors the exchange capacity of DI systems and accurately predicts […]

Chloride and sulfate are highly corrosive ions when present in the water/steam cycle of a power plant. They can damage critical components such as turbines, boilers and steam generator tubes, which can lead to unplanned shutdowns and reduced power generation efficiency. METTLER TOLEDO Thorntonʼs 3000CS Chloride/Sulfate Analyzer is an accurate and reliable, online analyzer for […]

Total Organic Carbon (TOC) is one of the most commonly overlooked contaminants in today’s power generation and industrial cogeneration. Controlling organics is important and is especially critical in cogeneration power/steam cycles, where the purified condensate water returning from production processes is subject to organic contamination. Organics present in power plant waters have a number of […]

POWER features a different power-related equipment category in selected issues throughout the year. This month’s showcase includes a variety of items used in the power generation industry, from pumps and

A major part of maintaining a power plant at peak efficiency is dealing with or preventing damage from corrosion and corrosive objects that can enter air and water intake systems, including pipes and fluid

As fossil plants look for new methods of minimizing corrosion, on-line analyzers are gaining importance. An analyzer for chloride and sulfate allows rapid response to rising levels of these corrosive ions. Learn more

Conductivity sensors can do more than just measure conductivity. Calculated values using conductivity data can provide valuable cycle chemistry information, confirm on-line sensor values, save time, and reduce costs. Learn more.
