Under the agreement, the two firms will provide an new energy efficiency solution to enable significant operational cost savings for power plants by burning less coal and generating less air pollution and coal combustion residual (CCR) wastes.
URS business development manager Sterling Gray said: "We’re pleased to be working exclusively with the leading supplier of Ljungström air preheater technology to bring this efficiency solution to the power industry.
"It offers a reasonable and cost-effective approach to reduce carbon emissions and combat climate change, while lowering the cost of electricity generated from coal."
URS will integrate its SBS InjectionÔ sorbent injection technology for sulfur trioxide (SO3) control with the air preheater technology of LJUNGSTRÖM in order to improve the thermal performance and efficiency of a coal-fired power plant.
ARVOS Group’s LJUNGSTRÖM Division vice president David Breckinridge said: "We’re excited to partner with URS to offer this exclusive solution to the ever-changing challenges of plant operations and efficiency enhancement.
"Our combined experience and expertise offers our customers the latest technology to provide meaningful benefits in plant operations."
