Business Wire
Fuel Tech, Inc. (NASDAQ: FTEK), a technology company
providing advanced engineering for the optimization of combustion
systems, emissions control and water treatment in utility and
industrial applications, today announced the receipt of air
pollution control (APC) and Chemical Technologies orders from new
and existing customers in Europe, the US and the Caribbean. These
awards have an aggregate value of approximately $2.1 million.
Two orders were received from new customers in Europe for
Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, which uses a
catalyst along with urea or ammonia as the reagent to provide high
levels of nitrogen oxide (NOx) reduction. The first order is for a
natural gas and process gas fired heater used at a chemical
processing plant. The SCR system includes the catalyst and reactor
and will utilize anhydrous ammonia which is already on-site.
Equipment delivery is expected in the fourth quarter of 2024. The
second order is for a natural gas fired boiler at a municipal solid
waste facility. The SCR system includes the catalyst and reactor
and an aqueous ammonia reagent delivery system. The scope also
includes a catalyst to reduce carbon monoxide emissions from the
customer process. Equipment deliveries are expected to be completed
in the first quarter of 2025.
A contract was also received from an existing customer in the
Caribbean for FUEL CHEM® equipment using our proprietary TIFI®
Targeted In-Furnace Injection technology. The existing customer is
restarting operations on a fourth heavy oil-fired unit at its
metals processing facility where our FUEL CHEM program uses boiler
fireside additives to help reduce boiler slagging and corrosion.
The chemical injection equipment is expected to be delivered in the
second quarter of 2024.
The final contract was received from an existing US customer for
upgrades to an existing Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR)
system for a coal-fired utility unit in the Midwest. Fuel Tech’s
SNCR technology is a proven solution for utility and industrial
combustion unit owners looking to comply with more stringent NOx
control requirements. The SNCR upgrades are being driven by EPA’s
Good Neighbor Rule, which requires combustion units with existing
NOx reduction equipment to operate at improved efficiency
throughout the summer ozone season. Deliveries are expected to be
completed by the end of the second quarter of 2024.
Vincent J. Arnone, President and Chief Executive Officer,
commented, “We are pleased to announce these contract awards which
represent continued growth using our wide range of product
solutions on a global basis. Our long-time customer in the
Caribbean continues to rely on our expertise to support their
on-going operations. NOx reduction requirements generated by the
EPA Good Neighbor Rule could create a number of opportunities for
both SNCR and SCR technology over the next several years. Fuel
Tech’s range of technologies continues to provide value to support
the needs of a wide range of industrial and utility
operations.”
