Emissions Monitoring Success with ABB CEMS

Background

A major city, recognized as one of the largest metropolitan areas in North America, boasts a population of millions. Given the high population density, effective waste management and emissions monitoring are crucial components of the city’s infrastructure. To ensure adherence to environmental standards, the city required comprehensive emissions monitoring for its various waste incinerators.

Solution

Competitive Bidding and Selection
In pursuit of this goal, the city mandates competitive bidding for projects whenever feasible. For this particular project, ABB and Everest Automation were the selected winners. Their selection was influenced by the historical operational robustness of the legacy AFC-NT system, the quality of after-sales support, and the overall competitiveness of ABB’s proposal.

Project Implementation
The project involved the installation of ABB’s Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS) to ensure accurate and reliable monitoring of emissions from the city’s waste incinerators. This system provides real-time data and analytics, helping the city maintain compliance with environmental regulations and improve overall air quality.

Outcome

The successful implementation of ABB’s CEMS has significantly enhanced the city’s ability to monitor and manage emissions from its waste incinerators. This project not only demonstrates the effectiveness of ABB’s technology but also highlights the importance of robust after-sales support and competitive project proposals. The collaboration between the city and Everest Automation has set a benchmark for future environmental initiatives.
