Charlotte, N.C., February 3, 2012 — The Babcock & Wilcox Co. won a contract to design and supply two spray dry absorber units and associated equipment for Xcel Energy's coal-fired Pawnee Generating Station in Brush, Colo.
The SDA systems are designed to control sulfur dioxide emissions from the single-unit, 544 MW plant. The contract scope also calls for B&W PGG to supply atomizers, a reagent preparation system, structural steel and commissioning of the project.
Material delivery is scheduled for 2013, with tie-in of the SDA units expected in the fall of 2014.
