B&W Clean Power Production Case Studies

Palm Beach Renewable Energy Facility No. 2

Ranking as the cleanest, most efficient plant of its kind in the world, this engineered, designed, procured and constructed WtE facility reduces landfill volume by 90%.

Waste-to-Energy Technology — Peterborough Plant

The plant processes local residual household, commercial and industrial waste. It generates 7.25 MW of green energy, contributing to Peterborough Council’s Blue Sky project to provide sustainable energy in a smart city environment.

Waste-to-Energy Technology – L90 Esbjerg Plant

B&W supplied the complete incinerator with state-of-the-art Waste-to-Energy technology which included waste crane, feed chute, feed grate and five-section combustion grate, combustion air system, auxiliary burners, ash conveyors for slag and fly ash from the boiler hoppers, feed water pumps with controls.

Waste-to-Energy Technology – Örebro Kartongbruk AB

This plant is installed at the cardboard factory Örebro Kartongbruk AB, situated in Örebro, Sweden. The fuel consists partly of wet and dry fractions of waste from the cardboard factory and partly of unsorted industrial waste including plastic, wood and a fraction of uncombustible material.

Lansing Generating Station, Unit 4

Circulating dry scrubber (CDS) designed, installed and integrated with fabric filter achieves SO2 removal efficiency up to 98%.

Spray Dryer Absorber, Pulse Jet Fabric Filter and Mercury Control Systems

Spray dryer absorber, pulse jet fabric filter and mercury control systems result in high SO2 removal efficiency and low operation and maintenance costs.

W.H. Sammis Plant Environmental Retrofits

The W.H. Sammis plant is the largest of FirstEnergy’s coal-fired electric generating facilities in Ohio. The plant consists of seven coal-fired units totaling 2,220 MW and is located along the Ohio River.

Award-Winning Palm Beach Renewable Energy Facility No. 1

PBREF No. 1 was awarded the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) 2009 Large Waste-to-Energy Facility Recognition Award for outstanding performance among facilities in North America.

Large Capacity Municipal Solid and Industrial Waste (RDF) Line – Högdalen Plant

With a combustion capacity of 37 tonnes waste an hour (9.2 MJ/kg), the Högdalen unit is characterized by flexibility. The plant is capable of burning municipal solid waste (MSW) and industrial waste – mainly refuse-derived fuel (RDF). B&W’s supply includes a furnace/boiler with economiser, a complete ash/slag system and a system for transporting fly ash from the boiler rear pass.

WtE Waste Incineration Technology — Reno Nord Plant

This plant will supply approximately 43 MW of heat to the district heating network in Aalborg. The efficiency is approximately 100%, and the energy produced will supply some 16,000 houses with electricity, and 30,000 houses with district heating.

WtE Technology — Trekantområdets Affaldsselskab I/S Plant

In Europe there is an increasing market demand for technologies capable of burning waste with high heating values. In Scandinavia it is common to burn large fractions of industrial waste including demolition wood and different types of biomass. In order to meet the periodically very high heating values, B&W developed new combustion technology that can be adapted to high or fluctuating heating values.

WtE Combustion Technology — Sundsvall Plant

The Sundsvall waste-fired power plant is the first plant with B&W’s new cast water-cooled grate bars. The boiler is designed with three-vertical passes and horizontal convection part.
