Metito, a leading provider of total intelligent water management and solutions in emerging markets, has announced it has embarked on a large scale project to provide demineralised water services to the Al Zour power plant in Kuwait. The project, commissioned by the Kuwaiti Ministry of Water & Electricity, involves the conversion of an existing 400 MW gas turbine power plant to a combined cycle power plant.
The demineralised water plant is being implemented to meet the additional demand for high purity water for boiler feed required for steam generation. The project is due for completion in May 2012.
Metito will install a conventional demineralisation plant featuring the latest industry equipment including a degassed water tank, strong base anion exchanger, chemical injection pumps, air blower systems and a regeneration system utilising bulk chemicals.
Bassem Halabi, Group Business Development Director – Metito Overseas, said: “This development shows a continuing effort from Metito to use our technical knowledge and state of the art equipment to provide the very best service to our clients. We look forward to completing this important project and as always exceeding the high expectations that stems from our reputation.
