“The OTSGs are configured for Gas Turbine steam injection. We are using the steam injection for power augmentation and emissions reduction. The OTSG operating concept is simple. Within a brief training the operating staff could safely operate the units. The OTSG rapidly compensates for large changes in GT load maintaining distribution grid requirements. The feed water quality quidelines are not difficult to maintain. The N08825 tubing is extremely durable, under normal operating conditions. Minimal maintenance is required when operating within OEM guidelines. The IST staff are always ready to help when needed.”
