Water and energy are two vital resources that are closely interlinked. Water is both a primary source of energy for hydropower production and a critical resource for power plants including coal, nuclear, solar and gas-fired facilities, for heat energy (steam production) and condenser cooling. Both energy and water are in short supply even as the demand for these resources is progressively increasing.
The power sector is also among the most water-intensive industries (requiring around 80,000 litres water per MW) and water availability is thus critical to power generation. Therefore, maintaining quality and quantity of water throughout the various usage cycles in power plant is utmost important. Ion Exchange with over five decades of specialized expertise in water and waste management offers end-to-end solutions for the power industry that ensures minimizing environmental impacts by conserving water and reducing pollution through recycle and zero discharge.
We have a robust track record of constructing water and waste water treatment facilities and managed water for some leading power plants globally. Sustained innovation, reliability and efficiency are the winning combination that has made Ion Exchange the powerhouse of total water management solutions for the power sector – whether coal-based, gas-based or nuclear power plants.
