China’s Zhejiang Ninghai Power Plant is breaking new ground in large-scale coastal power generation and is the first of its kind to use a desalinated seawater circulation cooling system so eliminating any environmental impact on adjacent sea areas caused by warm water discharge.
The operators chose Hayward Tyler glandless wet stator boiler recirculation pumps for both the Zhejiang Ninghai Phase II 1,000MW super-critical once-through boilers, and the project has won a gold medal in China’s prestigious National Quality Project Award as well as the Year 2010-2011 Luban Award.
