Daily start-stop operations and extreme thermal cycling were causing repeated shutdowns and costly maintenance at a combined cycle plant in Taiwan. Their existing desuperheater couldn’t keep up — leading to water leakage, poor temperature control, and up to five shutdowns a year.

In this free case study, learn how the plant partnered with Emerson to:

  • Cut shutdown frequency by more than half.
  • Improve steam temperature control with a desuperheater built for thermal cycling.
  • Save $105,000 US dollars annually on maintenance and energy costs.
  • Simplify cleaning and maintenance with a modular design.
  • Increase long-term reliability and operational efficiency.
