Natural Gas Power Station Expansion Selects SAMCO Demineralized Water Treatment System
Project Overview
As a public utility expanded a Midwestern natural gas power station to add significant new electrical generating capacity, the project’s EPC partner selected SAMCO to design a demineralized water treatment system for the site.
Objective
Deliver a demineralized water treatment system to support a major natural gas power station capacity expansion. Project specifications included:
- Double-pass reverse osmosis, portable exchange deionization (PEDI), and calcite filtration technology
Scope of Service
SAMCO’s customer, an industrial equipment supplier, engaged SAMCO to design, engineer, and supply the plant’s demineralized water treatment system.
Challenges
- Supporting a major capacity expansion on an accelerated commissioning timeline
- Water quality needs tied to new natural gas turbine equipment
- Integrating with existing station infrastructure
Solution
Technology
- Double-Pass Reverse Osmosis (DPRO)
- Portable Exchange Deionization (PEDI)
- Calcite filtration
- Control system with PLC/HMI
