Cloud-based solution gives holistic view of power plant steam and water quality
Management of water quality has always been a challenge for plant operators and avoiding corrosion of sensitive HRSG and steam turbine parts is extremely important. TOMONI® Water Quality Assurance for GTCC is a digital solution that provides monitoring and diagnosis to proactively manage water quality. The cloud-based solution monitors key water-related process variables and delivers water quality data, diagnostic evaluations, and guidance for action.
FEATURES
- Monitoring of approximately 60 parameters on main cycle steam, condensate, feedwater, make-up, circulating water and wastewater treatment systems
- Continuous, real-time monitoring of water quality using a Cloud-based system that leverages accumulated fleet experience
- Alerts of urgent deviations that require immediate action
Effects of Water Quality Deviation
BENEFITS
- Comprehensive guidance and early visibility of undesirable trends
- Reduced risk of damaging corrosion, HRSG tube failures, silica deposits and scaling
- Reduced risk of impurity carryover into steam turbine system
- Reduced chemical use for water treatment
- Reduced wastewater discharge
- Consulting resource for on-site chemists
