POWER
Alstom is a global leader in the world of power generation and sets the benchmark for innovative and environmentally responsible technologies. The company designs, manufactures and supplies state-of-the-art products and systems to the power generation industry - for gas, coal, wind, hydro and nuclear power - and industrial markets. In addition, Alstom provides conventional islands for nuclear power plants. Our objective is to provide the most efficient and cleanest integrated power solutions for our customers. We supply and integrate all components of a clean power solution from boilers and air quality control, to energy recovery systems. Our specialists have extensive experience in retrofitting, upgrading,
refurbishing and modernising existing power plant equipment. Unrivalled expertise in project management for all kinds of power generation systems, from small to large, from single equipment to complete turnkey solutions. The company's unique offering brings real value to our customers. With our innovative plant integration concept, we help operators to maximise plant performance, while fully complying with environmental regulations and obligations.
Customised Power Plant Solutions Based on its Plant Integrator concept, Alstom creates real value for its customers by providing them with complete and optimised power solutions. This approach goes beyond the typical product compilation approach simply aimed at reducing cost. Giving Customers the Best Choice With Alstom's Plant Integrator approach, customers can choose between different options to find the solution that is best suited for them. These solutions help them to achieve their business objectives and consequently, better serve their markets. Factors determining greater customer value include: Investment Lead-Time Performace Availability & Flexibility
RESEARCH IN ACTION
In addition to our own research & development efforts to develop new emission control technologies and improve existing techniques, we are also involved in a number of public projects and partnerships, notably in the field of CO2 capture and storage. Within the ENCAP programme (funded by the European Union), research is under way to develop new CO2 capture technologies The Zero Emission Fossil Fuel Power Plants (ZEP) technology platform (launched by the European Commission) aims at enabling European Fossil Fuel Power Plants to have zero CO2 emissions by 2020.
Overall efficiency improvements help to reduce CO2 emissions, while specific technologies minimise the emission of specific pollutants. For example, our high efficiency pulverised coal combustion system minimises all traditional pollutants. Circulating Fluidised Bed (CFB) technology inhibits nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions, while flue gas desulphurisation technology can capture as much as 98% of sulphur dioxide emissions from conventional suspension-fired boilers. Similarly, advanced emission control systems are able to capture remaining emissions from pulverised coal and CFB units while also reducing mercury emissions. Our aim is to achieve near zero CO2 emissions through the application of efficiency, our Plant Integrator approach, and carbon capture technologies.

POST-COMBUSTION CAPTURE
Post-combustion capture is the most readily available technology today and the most easily adaptable to the large installed base of coal and gas units. With this technology, the CO2 is selectively removed from flue gas in the power plant through a capture unit. The most widely developed post-combustion capture solvent is amine. The major problem with amine capture is the high cost: due to the heat required during the stripping phase to separate the amine solvent and CO2. This would lead to a 25% decrease in plant output. In February 2008 Alstom signed a joint development and commercialisation agreement with Dow Chemical Company, the global gas treating technology leader and the worlds largest producer of amines. This agreement aims to develop the most economic and environmentally conscious, amine-based carbon capture solutions. Alstom is also pursuing a very promising new post-combustion process involving chilled ammonia. This technology potentially has much lower energy requirements, significantly reducing the cost of CO2 capture. Alstom has a clear strategy to develop chilled ammonia both on coal and gas effluents and has announced numerous partnerships with EPRI, Statoil, WE Energies, AEP and EoN in order to validate the process on an industrial level before the end of 2011.

OXY-FIRING TECHNOLOGY
Oxy-firing technology involves burning solid fuel with high-purity oxygen rather than air. The combustion is controlled with a recycle stream of CO2. The flue gas obtained from oxycombustion is mainly composed of water and CO2, the latter of which is easily captured at the back-end by water separation. Oxy-firing applies to new units but may suit some retrofits as well. Alstom is playing a key role in developing oxy-fired PC and CFB techniques. We have been selected by the power producer, Vattenfall to set up the first steam power plant using the oxygen combustion of brown coal. Based on its CFB know-how, Alstom is also investigating breakthrough technologies such as chemical looping. This unique system replaces the traditional boiler with a two-stage chemical conversion process, using an oxygen 'carrier' to transfer oxygen to the fuel. The exhaust gas is similar to oxy-firing, enabling easy CO2 capture. Preliminary testing at the 10kW Chalmers unit (under the EU ENCAP programme) and continuing research on the chemical looping process development unit of Alstom in Windsor CT, in the USA and in Meudon, France are very promising.

BOILER RETROFITS
Alstom has no equal when it comes to boiler retrofits. Over the years we have performed upgrades and retrofits on 1400 units worldwide, of which 40% were designed by other manufacturers. Alstom is in the unique position to deliver emission and performance guarantees on plant parameters. The range of engineered retrofit solutions covers: life extension and rehabilitation of ageing units, boiler performance optimisation, low NOx combustion systems for emission reduction, fuel conversion and additions - fuel switching, biomass co-firing and fuel blending - and pressure part re-design and replacement. Alstoms advanced surface coating technology significantly reduces the corrosion of tubes, which is a major source of power outages.
TURBINE RETROFITS
As with all our retrofits, turbine retrofits performed by Alstom not only help to reduce emissions, but create real and financial benefits for plant operators. We offer retrofits of blade carriers and bladed rotors, inner blocks, part turbines and whole turbines. In comparison to existing designs, Alstom's modern Low Pressure (LP) turbine retrofit designs, provide remarkable improvements in efficiency. This is due to the application of Computational Fluid Dynamics, (CFD), (our) state-of-the-art modeling concept for blade and steam path design.
We also help plant operators increase the range of fuels which can be used to access a broader fuel supply. This includes more environmentally conscious fuels such as biomass co-firing. Switching to more difficult fuels or residues like petcoke, while still maintaining the highest level of environmental protection available. We also have unique value-integration skills that combine boiler and turbine retrofits to increase the plants economics and its environmental benefits.
