In efforts to maintain its commitment to the environment, a Midwestern power company significantly upgraded its stations by installing equipment to reduce SO2 and NOX emissions.
PULLMAN was selected by the client because our design-build capabilities and experience matched the client’s need to safely integrate the new air quality control systems with the existing plant infrastructure.
PULLMAN engineers extensively utilized building information modeling (BIM) in the preplanning process to develop detailed construction sequencing plans to meet the challenge of performing work in and around the existing systems.
The environmental project was completed on time and within budget, and continues to contribute to provide electric energy to its customers.
