Good Afternoon, Elizabeth: I have received some information from our Doncaster , England, office

on these dense phase slurry systems for fly ash.

We, as Clyde Bergemann Power Group, CBPG, have supplied two High Concentration Slurry Disposal,

HCSD , systems:

The first one was for Eraring Power Plant in Australia where we used Feluwa high pressure piston

diaphragm pumps to convey HCSD about 7 kilometers (~23,000 feet) to an ash lagoon.

We presented a paper at PowerGen Europe in 2009 on this project - see attached.

All four Units have been running well for nearly 2 years now.

Here we used our own design using a primary screw mixer and a secondary mixing tank.

The second one was a project in Serbia at Kostolac where we used multistage centrifugal pumps to

convey 300 cubic meters per hour about 4.5 kilometers (~14,800 feet).

In addition to Feluwa, we could also use Dutch GEHO pumps which are part of the Weir Minerals

group (WARMAN pumps et al).

Another technology that we could use is supplied by GEA EGI Contracting Engineering Co in Hungary.

They market a CIRCUMIX R system.

They have installations in Hungary, Romania and one in the USA at Jacksonville North Side

Generating Station.

I will forward a slide show from their web site. It does show some photos of the Jacksonville

equipment.

We met them at a recent World of Coal Ash show in Denver and have a contact: Ferenc Horvath, VP

Balance of Plant Sales, in Hungary.

We also have contacts a North Side, if you don't.

So if and when these systems become viable as part of the future EPA decisions on ash ponds, we

are ready.

EPA FLY ASH SYSTEM COST SUMMARY - APRIL 7 2014.pdf

Good Afternoon, Elizabeth et al:

We enclose our comments and responses to your March 25 set of questions regarding our previous

cost studies for Fly Ash & Bottom Ash Systems.

We also enclose a revised Fly Ash Cost chart showing the additional cost for a redundant FilterReceiver in each of our scenarios.

We also point out that the activity level for quoting closed loop water recirculation systems for retrofit

bottom ash systems is picking up now that the December 19, 2014 deadline is fast approaching.

We cannot enclose any confidential active proposals at this time but pricing is very competitive.

Thank you again for allowing Clyde Bergemann Power Group, CBPG, to assist both the Eastern

Research Group and the EPA.

to identify any potential updates, if needed. Therefore, in addition to the information we discussed during our

call, EPA would like to request responses to the questions in the attached file to ensure that we are correctly

interpreting your data.

If any of the information associated with the attached questions is confidential business information (CBI), please

do not send the answers back electronically. Instead, please send the response to the following address:

Good Morning, Elizabeth:

We never include or pay any Sales Tax. We assume all of our Utility clients are exempt. Many send

their tax exempt certificate in the RFQs.

I would say you do not need to add anything.

We are talking about sales taxes mostly, like 6% here in PA. I bet an national average is more like

3%. Lost in the Budgetary nature of these quotes anyway.

Okay, My Friend?

Good morning Gary,

In the responses provided to these fly and bottom ash questions back in April, you mentioned that tax is not

included in the original cost estimates (just freight). Can you confirm that this is because plants don’t pay tax on

this equipment? Or is this something we should be accounting for in our cost estimates?

If tax is typically included, is there a standard percentage we should use?

Thanks,

Elizabeth

Date: Tuesday, September 30, 2014 9:42:26 AM

Good Morning, Elizabeth;

I am back in the office after two solid weeks of business development.

I have not bid high pressure sluice pumps for fly ash for a long time. These systems are being phased

out, not reintroduced.

However, the same types of pumps ARE coming back into use in the closed loop water recirculation

systems for bottom ash.

The nozzles in bottom ash jet pumps and the nozzles in the water jet exhausters used for wet fly ash

systems both need high pressure water in the 250# to 300 psig range.

The bottom ash system do require more gallons per minute due to the pipeline sizes involved.

Fly ash systems may need anywhere from 1,000 GPM to 3,000 GPM while bottom ash systems use up

to 5,000 GPM in supply pumps.

There are two types of pumps we can use.

For Recirculation systems with closed loops and therefore a concentration on ash fines in the water,

we can use heavy duty slurry pumps such as the Weir/Warman and Duechting product lines.

For once through systems where the incoming water is filtered river water or perhaps

condenser/turbine exhaust water, we can use so called clear water pumps from Goulds or Flowserve or

a number of other pump suppliers.

I would put a set of clear water pumps for fly ash service at $150,000 to $250,000 each with always at

least two with one a 100% spare.

The Horsepower for the motors would range from 500 to 1250 HP.

All of these pumps have replaceable parts so the whole pump is not thrown away after 5 years.

Okay, my friend?

Hi Gary:

Thank you again for your time on the phone this morning.

As I mentioned, I wanted to see if you could provide additional cost information for high-pressure sluice water

pumps for a fly ash wet sluicing system.

In the attached PDF (SE04165), for Fly Ash Questions 4 and 5, we requested service life and cost information for

hydrovactor nozzle replacement, air separator tank, and convey pipe. We’d also like to ask about high-pressure

sluice water pumps. Is it reasonable to assume a 5-year service life for high-pressure sluice water pumps?

Additionally, can you provide a capital cost estimate associated with high-pressure sluice water pumps?

Thank you,

Elizabeth
