Power Plant in Thailand Uses Liqui-Cel Membrane Contactors to Remove CO2 from Water

A major power plant in Thailand is using Liqui-Cel membrane contactors to remove carbon dioxide from a DI water system. The system is an expansion project and will be used to feed a high pressure boiler. Liqui-Cel contactors are being used to lower the CO₂ inlet into an Ionpure EDI system. Carbon dioxide adds an ionic load to the EDI system, which can reduce the performance of the system. Manufactures of the EDI equipment suggest lowering the inlet CO₂ to reduce the load on the equipment and improve the water quality.
