World Coal,
Fuel Tech Inc. has received an order for multiple air pollution control (APC) contracts from customers in China. These awards have an aggregate value of approximately US$2.2 million.
An award was received for Fuel Tech’s NOxOUT® Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) systems for multiple coal-fired utility boilers. Equipment deliveries are expected to occur during 2Q16 and 4Q16, as well as 2Q17. Fuel Tech’s SNCR technology is proving to be a viable solution as combustion unit owners look to comply with more stringent NOX control requirements mandated by China’s environmental regulatory policies.
Additionally, orders were received for multiple ULTRA™ systems that will be installed on units firing coal and municipal solid waste, which are being retrofitted with NOX reduction technology. Fuel Tech’s ULTRA process provides for the safe and cost-effective onsite conversion of urea to ammonia for use as a reagent where SCR is used to reduce NOX eliminating the hazards associated with the transport, storage and handling of anhydrous or aqueous ammonia.
Vincent J. Arnone, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented: “These orders continue to demonstrate our capabilities to provide cost-effective technology solutions on a global basis. With our industry-leading suite of APC products and services, we believe we are well positioned to compete for additional opportunities in the domestic and international markets.”
