DownloadPPCHEM AG hosted a webinar on the topic of Cleanliness Requirements of Steam Generators and Water Steam Cycles of Power Plants during Project Execution.
This webinar was held in English on July 11, 2022 at 10 am EDT (16:00 CEST).
This webinar’s time had been chosen to fit the US East Coast, but of course everyone was welcome to join.
Content/Topics
Our Senior Key Expert Power Plant Technology Wolfgang Rost talked about the following topics:
Experience gained over the years has shown that the strict adherence to prudent industry practice regarding cleanliness assembly of steam generator and water steam cycle systems is the key to quickly establish normal and trouble-free steam turbine operation of newly built power plants. It is therefore most valuable to understand what kind of contaminations can occur in what production step, what adverse consequences these imply and how to generally avoid that by setting-up very simple guidelines to start with. In addition it is very helpful to know what sort of remedies as effective corrective measures exist if things went wrong at the first place.
If all aforementioned will be adhered to, reduction in execution time and money expenditure will be the result at the end of the day. This webinar intents to create awareness and knowledge with respect to this subject for all personnel involved in the power plant project execution.
Explanation of specific cleanliness requirements for the entire value chain during manufacture of power plant steam generator and the adjacent water steam cycle from workshop fabrication until final commercial operation with focus on:
- Workshop fabrication, including proper storage and delivery
- On-Site construction
- Commissioning
Introduction of well established cleaning steps during commissioning phase, including useful background information:
- Initial chemical cleaning methods
- Steam cleaning procedures
- Troubleshooting
Target audience: personnel involved in project or site management of power plants, manufacturers of power plant equipment.
