Total Organic Carbon is one of the most commonly overlooked contaminants in today’s power generation. Yet, organics in power plant waters have several detrimental effects, such as process disruptions and equipment damage. Learn how measuring TOC in power and cogeneration water systems can help avoid damage to your essential equipment. Check out this video.
https://youtu.be/xdLRKkfEbj0

METTLER TOLEDO offers a series of Total Organic Carbon sensors that can be used in power plant water, including the 4000TOCe.

For stand-alone measurements and sampling, METTLER TOLEDO Thornton provides a complete portable solution for TOC and related high purity water measurements. The 450TOC delivers fast, real-time, continuous measurements, allowing the user to profile the water system rapidly.

Organic contamination in cogeneration water cycles can cause process disruptions and damage to critical capital equipment. Organic contamination of can cause a number of costly problems, including fouling of resins in make-up and condensate deionizers that requires frequent resin cleaning and replacement; break down of organics to acids that lower the pH of condensate and cause boiler and turbine corrosion; deposition onto heat exchange surfaces leading to significantly reduced efficiency; and foaming in the boiler that can increase carryover of other contaminants into the steam.

Jasper Engineering represents Mettler-Toledo in the upper midwest. Give us a call and lets start a conversation about how measuring your TOC accurately can help prevent downtime and protect equipment!

When a gearbox is failing, replacing it doesn't need to mean building a new stand or changing your entire footprint. IDC can build you an exact drop-in replacement for your existing application. Bolt-for-bolt, IDC's gearbox will drop right in. If you want to make changes to your existing application while keeping the same footprint, they can also do things like upgrade horsepower, change speed, upgrade bearings and sealing, alter housing design, add cooling or heaters, and implement new shaft configuration.

Jasper Engineering is proud to partner with IDC Industries in the upper midwest. Call our engineers and lets talk about the best replacements for your gearbox! 800-776-6184
