Fossil | Dow Water & Process Solutions

Dow Water & Process Solutions' ion exchange resins play an important role in protecting nuclear and fossil fuel power generation components from corrosion, decreasing maintenance costs and increasing plant life. Dow provides solutions for boiler make-up and condensate polishing in the conventional island and the trace removal of mercury, boron, and other contaminants in the flue gas desulphurization unit (FGD).

Fossil Applications

BOILER MAKE-UP DEMINERALIZATION

Dow offers a complete portfolio of water treatment technologies — ultrafiltration, reverse osmosis, ion exchange and electrodeionization — to produce the required water quality at the lowest total costs.

COAL

Dow Water & Process Solutions' resins help coal-fueled power plants recycle and reuse wastewater in operations.

CONDENSATE POLISHING

Our best-in-class condensate polishing ion exchange resins excel in capturing corrosion products in the condensate stream.

FLUE GAS DESULPHURIZATION

Dow offers innovative solutions to address specific trace contaminants that must be removed in the waste stream to meet regulatory requirements.

NATURAL GAS

Dow Water & Process Solutions' exclusive technology license for sulfate removal enables us to bring unparalleled expertise and technological resources to customers. The performance of Dow's sulfate removal technologies can reduce the costs related to sour gas treatment.

OIL & PETROLEUM

Sulfate removal is crucial for deep water oil operations, where membrane durability and reliability are key to lowering maintenance and operating costs while maximizing oil extraction. As a result of Dow's investment in petroleum processing research and development, our DOW FILMTEC™ SR90 nanofiltration membranes are considered an industry breakthrough in membrane-based sulfate removal technology. In addition to removing sulfates, Dow's nanofiltration membranes remove particles greater than one one-thousandth (.001) micron, resulting in high-quality injection water that is free of silica and bacteria.
