Power industry

As fuel streams biomass and waste can co-fired, gasified, pyrolised, or directly combusted. Unfortunately, they can also be extremely aggressive fuels posing major materials engineering issues.

TWI has led the development of a range of thermally sprayed and nano-composite coatings aimed preventing the high corrosion, erosion and slagging that occur in biomass and wast-to-energy plant.

Also, with a strong pedigree in support of the thermal power industry TWI can support plant developers, operators and OEMs with structural integrity, fitness-for-service, and residual life assessment services.

The unrivalled combination of track record and innovation is particularly beneficial to biomass and waste-to-energy financers and developers seeking to understand better the challenges posed by these fuels streams and the technologies being developed to handle them.
