ADA-ES Awarded Contract for a Mercury Control System at a New Power Plant Unit
Posted on: Wednesday, 4 October 2006, 09:00 CDT
ADA-ES, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADES) today announced that it has been awarded a contract with The Babcock & Wilcox Company (B&W) to supply a mercury emission control system for a new power plant being built in the western United States. B&W is providing a coal-fired boiler and associated environmental equipment, including a mercury control system provided by ADA-ES. The boiler will produce approximately 220 megawatts of power and burn Powder River Basin coal. The electricity will be used for powering an industrial process plant, with some excess power to be sold into the electrical grid. The mercury emission control system will utilize powdered activated carbon to remove mercury from the flue gas of the power plant. ADA-ES anticipates delivery of the system during the first quarter of 2007.
"This is the ninth mercury control system we have sold in 2006," said Dr. Michael Durham, President of ADA-ES. "We have sold systems to new power plants and also to existing plants that need to meet state mandated mercury emission limits. With more states expected to adopt their own mercury emissions rules and numerous new coal fired power plants announced recently, we expect the demand for our mercury control systems to remain strong."
