On January 30, 2017, Fuel Tech Inc. reported the receipt of multiple air pollution control (APC) contracts, valued at USD 5.0 million aggregate, from customers in the US. The company has received an order for its NOxOUT Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) systems for two large coal-fired utility boilers. The SNCR technology is a proven solution as combustion unit owners look to comply with more stringent NOx control requirements, with equipment deliveries during the first quarter of 2018. In conjunction, the company has received the second order for a NOxOUT SNCR system that will be installed on an industrial unit in the West, with equipment delivery in the fourth quarter of 2017.
Fuel Tech, Inc. is a technology company, which is engaged in the development, commercialization and application of proprietary technologies for air pollution control, process optimization, water treatment and advanced engineering services. It has two segments: Air Pollution Control technology and FUEL CHEM technology. The Air Pollution Control technology segment includes technologies to reduce oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emissions in flue gas generated by the firing of natural gas or coal from boilers, incinerators, furnaces and other stationary combustion sources. These include NOxOUT and HERT Selective Non-Catalytic Reduction (SNCR) systems, and Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems. The FUEL CHEM technology segment uses chemical processes in combination with advanced computational fluid dynamics and chemical kinetics modeling boiler modeling for the control of slagging, fouling, corrosion, opacity and other sulfur trioxide-related issues in coal-fired furnaces and boilers.
