Power Plant Rolls Out New IED Compliant CEM System
Power Plant Rolls Out New IED Compliant CEM System The BACKGROUND Because of ageing equipment and increasing issues surrounding reliability, one of Europe’s leading power suppliers decided to roll out a series of site upgrades to replace their continuous emission monitoring systems (CEMS) at a coal-fired power station and two gas turbine sites across the UK. The CHALLENGE 1. To supply CEMS that complies with the requirements of MCERTS, the large combustion plant directive (LCPD) and the industrial emissions directive (IED), which is due to be enforced in 2016 2. To include a system redundancy option at the coal-fired power station to prevent any downtime 3. To monitor temperature, pressure and flow measurement directly from the flue and establish communications between the analysers and Da
