Clyde Bergemann Power Group Americas has announced the recent award of a $180M contract for air pollution control equipment from a major U.S. Utility.
CBAM will engineer, supply and commission a total of twelve pulse jet fabric filters for particulate control, twelve powder activated carbon ijection systems for mercury mitigation and six dry sorbent injection systems for sulphuric acid mist mitigation in twelve coal fired boilers with a combined 5000 MW of generating capacity.
This order makes CBAM the leading supplier of fabric filters and dry sorbent injection systems to U.S power plants for compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) new Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS). The MATS rule will require existing power plants to meet reduced emissions of toxic air pollutants such as mercury, particulate matter, and acid gases.
Engineering work for the project has already begun with material delivery scheduled to start in spring of 2013. Fabrication will take place in Clyde Bergemann’s new 165 000 square foot plant in Jesup, creating 70 new jobs.
