The company has been awarded a contract to conduct front-end engineering and design (FEED) for Varme Energys planned waste-to-energy with CCS project in Canada.
As part of the contract, B&W will conduct engineering and design for the plants waste-fired boiler, emissions control technologies and post-combustion carbon capture system.
This initial engineering contract is an important first step in what we anticipate will be an exciting, large-scale municipal waste-to-energy with carbon capture and sequestration project, said B&W Chief Operating Officer Jimmy Morgan. Were pleased to partner with Varme Energy to help turn waste into a clean energy source with reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
The proposed facility would be constructed northeast of Edmonton and would be capable of processing up to 200,000 tons of waste per year.
Following completion of the FEED contract, B&Ws anticipated scope for the proposed project would include the design, supply and construction of the plants combustion grate, boiler and economizer, as well as the design and supply of the air quality control system (AQCS) for particulates, nitrogen oxide and sulfur oxides, and a carbon capture absorber and sorbent regeneration system.
