Long Term Service Programs with Mitsubishi Power Systems Americas provide the highest level of service support, the most flexible service options and the best service value over the power plant life cycle, for a wide range of manufacturers.

Environmental Engineering

Much of the capital expenditure in building modern power plants goes into environmental engineering in the form of dust collection, desulphurization and denitrification. It must be remembered that flue gases form from the firing of coal and contain ash particles, nitrogen oxides and sulphur dioxides. These emissions can be largely reduced by using highly effective processes. Modern technology can, for example, precipitate 99.9% of dusts from the flue gas; other processes ensure that the remaining constituents only give rise to minor emissions.

Construction / Commissioning

Hitachi Power Europe (HPE) has a lengthy track record and extensive expertise in design and engineering. Installation covers a wide range from basic engineering (setting up the budget and basic concept planning) through to the smooth handling of matters on the site including logistics as well as planning personnel requirements and crane deployment (detail concept planning). Our qualified site managers undertake the monitoring and coordination of all aspects of installation throughout the world.

Laboratory

Even the most minute of traces become clearly visible when subject to a 100,000 + magnification. That is what the laboratory staff of Hitachi Power Europe use in the form of a scanning electron microscope to analyze fractured surfaces on materials. And this is only one of a number of tasks. The experts in materials technology and analysis examine and assess, for example, fossil fuels, determine the calorific value and grindability of various coal types and look for trace elements in combustion residues (for instance, in slag and ash). Their aim is to improve combustion and, at the same time, reduce environmental pollution. This is achieved, for instance, by optimizing the design of coal mills and burners for the different kinds of fuels.
