| Aecon's IST receives contracts for emissions control system, OTSG Aecon Group Inc. announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Innovative Steam Technologies (IST), has been awarded two contracts totaling $17 million to design and supply an emissions control system and four Once Through Steam Generator (OTSG) units. Under the first contract, awarded by Waterbury Generation LLC of Hartford, Connecticut, IST will supply a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system and Carbon Monoxide (CO) reduction catalyst system, to be applied to the exhaust of the new GE 96 MW gas turbine. This marks IST's first project to supply an emissions control system to a client who does not require an OTSG unit. The SCR system converts nitrogen oxide emissions into harmless nitrogen and water, while the carbon system coverts carbon monoxide into carbon dioxide. The system is scheduled to be delivered in August 2008. In the second contract, awarded by Aksa Enerji Uretim A.S. located in Turkey, IST will design and manufacture four OTSG units for a 240MW combined cycle plant which is part of a larger 1000MW energy facility being built in the city of Antalya. This will be IST's third project in Turkey and is scheduled to be delivered in December 2008. write your comments about the article :: © 2007 Construction News :: home page |
