Solutions For Power Plants

For a coal-fired power plant, Separation Technologies offers solutions for successfully managing fly ash that minimize total overall costs, while maximizing ash sales to the concrete industry, obtaining top value for the ash, and lowering the plant’s risk. Separation Technologies provides high value, flexible, customized solutions that draw on our unique strengths: proven, proprietary technologies for ash treatment; extensive industry, technology, and marketing expertise; and powerful marketing relationships to minimize fly ash disposal, and maximize fly ash utilization.

Separation Technologies’ fly ash solutions are especially relevant and on-target in the present business and regulatory environments that power plants face:

• Power market unpredictability
• Frequent, industry-wide changes in plant ownership
• Coal market volatility
• Regular but not clearly defined tightening in air emissions and ash disposal regulations
• Rapid shifts in electric industry strategies
  Specifically, Separation Technologies can assist power plants in managing coal combustion byproducts, focusing on these key stress points:
• Fly ash disposal costs
• Landfill availability
• Landfill liability
• Environmental regulations, including CO2, NOx, particulate restrictions, and ash landfill/pond runoff
• Cost pressures, wholesale competition, and capital priorities
  

Separation Technologies works closely with power plants in these critical areas:

• Cost Management
• Ensuring greatest possible levels of landfill cost avoidance
• Delaying or avoiding future landfill development
• Capturing the fuel value of unburned carbon in fly ash, via carbon reburn, saves money

Future Liability

• Reducing the chances that, in the future, environmental regulators will take actions targeted at a fly ash disposal site

Environmental Issues

• Producing environmentally-friendly processed fly ash is a “green” solution
• Improves public relations and regulatory relations
• Ammonia removal from fly ash, if required

Competitive Markets

• Improved competitive position (dispatch order) for coal fired generation relative to gas or oil.
