As a result of the successful test, the utility has ordered a permanent installation. With ADA-110, utilities can avoid spending millions to switch to dry fly ash handling systems. The deposits clog pipes and other components of the ash removal system.
Utilities often have to retrofit dry fly ash handling systems costing millions of dollars.
With ADA-110, the ash doesn't harden until long after it has left the ash handling system. Because of the financial and operating benefits of ADA-110, we expect this revenue stream to grow as more power plants switch to PRB coal. Several power plants built before 1975 use wet fly ash handling systems, making them excellent prospects for our technology. The ADA-ES systems mitigate environmental impact, while providing potential fuel cost savings of several million dollars per year. The company is also testing processes for oil refineries and other industrial markets.
