Power Plant Turns Waste into Treasure
Chen is a veteran driver of a sewage treatment plant. At 9 o'clock every morning, he drove a closed transport truck to start his day's work. The sewage treatment plant is the largest sewage "reservation station" in Cangshan District, Fuzhou City, Fujian Province, and 200,000 tons of sewage have to be "reported" here every day. The sludge formed after sewage treatment will be compressed into a ...

Why Use Camera Monitoring?
The nuclear power plant and waste repository are hazardous environments with gamma and neutron radiation being the main danger factors, particularly within the “in-containment” areas. To successfully monitor the activities within these harsh environments is of key importance. Surveying and assessing the status and functionality of all key equipment is one important factor. The other ...

Chemical, Physical, Mineralogical, Morphology Characteristics of a Thermal Power Plant Washing Waste
Most of electricity is generated by thermal power plants in Iran. Shahid Rajaee thermal power plant consists of four 250MW natural gas and fuel oil burning units that is located at 100 km west off Tehran. As a result of fuel oil burning in winter time, boilers air heaters are washed and cleaned frequently. The wastewater originating from air heater washing contains suspended solids and ...

Towards a complete recycling of phosphorus in wastewater treatment – options in Germany
Global reserves of mineral phosphorus are finite and the recycling of phosphorus from wastewater, a significant sink for phosphorus, can contribute to a more sustainable use. In Germany, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, an increasing percentage of municipal sewage sludge is incinerated and the contained phosphorus is lost. This paper reviews current technologies and shows that a complete ...

A legal framework of financial liability of the nuclear power reactor industry in the field of waste management in Sweden and proposals for improvements
According to the nuclear legislation in Sweden, companies licensed to operate nuclear power plants have overall responsibility for safely managing all nuclear waste and to pay all expenses regarding final disposal. A committee was set up by the Government to explore the requirements in the present legislation, and if necessary, make proposals for improvements. The committee proposed that the ...

The determination of total mercury in soils and river sediments using thermal decomposition and amalgamation coupled with atomic absorption
Mercury has long been recognized as a serious global pollutant that has a significant impact upon our ecosystem. Unlike most other pollutants, it is highly mobile, non-biodegradable, and bio-accumulative and as a result has to be closely monitored to ensure its harmful effects on local populations are minimized. Approximately 50 tons of mercury particulates are emitted into the atmosphere every ...

Waste Material Grapple Recapture with ROV - Case Study
Objective The Carillon power station is a run-of-river power station. The waste material grapple fell upstream from unit 4 after the breaking of its steel wire rope. The use of the ROV allowed work in simple access mode to the installation with a short time of set-up. Only 2 units were stopped instead of 5 with the divers method. Stoppage of more than 2 units at this particular time would have ...

Burn-up credit methodology validation in Bulgaria
A methodology for criticality safety analyses with burn-up credit application has been developed for the WWER spent fuel management facilities. This methodology is based on two worldwide-used code systems: SCALE 4.4 for depletion and criticality calculations and NESSEL-NUKO for depletion calculations. The methodology is in the process of extensive validation for WWER-440 and WWER-1000 spent fuel ...

Komax teflon lined mixer simplifies acid injection for power plant
A major source of waste water in many power plants is the waste stream that results from ion exchange used for demineralizing the boiler feed water. The alkaline regeneration waste stream produced by the ion exchange process requires the addition of an acid to this stream before discharge from the plant. Regulatory authorities typically require the effluent to have a near neutral pH before ...

Operating Principle of an Oxygen Monitor
The oxygen concentration in the flue gas of a combustion process such as that of a power plant or a waste incinerator gives a good indication of the efficiency of the combustion process. The parameter is therefore of great interest to optimize fuel economy, but also to control and reduce emissions of air pollutants. An ideal combustion process only results in CO2 and water, but if the air ...

Who Needs Continuous Emissions Monitoring?
Continuous emissions monitoring (CEM) is about monitoring air pollutants generated by a specific activity and emitted to the ambient air, typically through a tall stack or other exhaust pipe. The “activity” can be some industrial process like a power plant or a waste incinerator, but it can also be on a much smaller scale such as a car equipped with an internal-combustion engine. The ...

Wastewater Treatment Plant Monitors Greenhouse Gas Emissions - Case Study
Globally, little attention is paid to gaseous emissions from wastewater treatment processes. This contrasts greatly with the regulatory monitoring that is applied to the quality of water emissions from such facilities. However, in Helsinki, Finland, a large municipal wastewater treatment facility continuously monitors its emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) to help in the city’s efforts to ...
