Thermal Power Plants
XPlate® Technology has been tested to improve the boiler efficiency at several power plants in Russia, Ukraine, Botswana, Korea, etc. The positive combustion efficiency improvement were found from all testing sites.
In 2021, XPlate® has been commercially implemented at Tatneft Power Plant in Nizhnekamsk, Republic of Tatarstan, Russia at a gas-fired boiler 500 Tons/hour. Gas fuel saving economy was found 1.1% – 1.2%. A 5% reduction in NOx was recorded at similar steam loads compared to operation prior to XPlate® installation.
In 2010, XPlate® tested at a 50 MW boiler at Vorkuta Power Station of IES Holding Inc. in Russia. This factory was located above the Arctic Circle where very cold climate average of -35°C and oxygen content in air was less than that in Europe. The positive trend of inlet air reduction was confirmed by the ability in reduced inlet air pressure.
