Location: Muscat Oman
Presenter: David Addison
Plant damage caused by corrosion, unplanned shutdowns, and/or impairment of efficiency and plant performance for chemical reasons are still among the major root causes of huge economic losses.
Often an inadequate selection of the individual chemical regime or inappropriate chemical monitoring in conjunction with countermeasures applied too late are reasons for these setbacks. The seminar will demonstrate by selected case studies the possible negative economic impacts as well as how an optimum plant chemistry can contribute to improving the economic situation of the individual plant.
A fundamental understanding of the interaction between the water qualities occurring in the power plant, the various materials used, and the different processes and conditions of the individual systems is of essential importance to avoid these impacts and to improve the economic benefits.
This seminar offers easy-to-understand insights into the aims and tasks of power plant chemistry, as well as into the necessary basics, such as water chemistry, corrosion science, etc., not only to chemical specialists, but also to the "non-chemist".
The different possible operating regimes, the relevant guidelines (e.g. IAPWS, EPRI, VGB), and the correct and optimum selection and application in relation to the individual plant design will be demonstrated, as well as the necessary considerations for the operational monitoring concept.

Annual meeting for the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS) including the Power Cycle Chemistry group of IAPWS
Location: Washington DC United States of America
Presenter: David Addison
The PowerPlant Chemistry Forum (PPCF) will be of major interest to:
Operational personnel, technical managers, plant engineers, boiler operators, cycle and plant chemists, corrosion scientists, and service providers as well as manufacturers of components and chemicals.
The official language of this conference will be English.
The PPCF will provide excellent insights into the latest developments in cycle chemistry and numerous examples from fossil, combined cycle, biomass, nuclear, and other plants from around the world will be shared. The conference will consist of both invited and contributed technical papers. Use this opportunity to share your experiences with your peers.
Presentation Topics (final agenda pending):
• Cycling Operation and Its Challenges
• Lay-Up
• Chemical Treatment for Cycling Plants
• Effective Cycle Chemistry Management
• Industrial Process Steam Plants/Cogeneration Plant
• Chemical Control and Monitoring for Cycling Plants
• Chemistry during Start-Up
• Sampling Systems and Instrumentation
• Life-Cycle Chemistry Optimization
Location: Prague, Czech Republic
Presenter: David Addison
Held every four or five years, these conferences attract more than 200 delegates from different countries around the world, (28 at the 16th ICPWS). Keynote sessions by prestigious invited speakers will set the themes, followed by oral and poster sessions and workshops. Topics of symposia will cover a wide range including the thermophysical properties of water, ice, steam, and seawater, the physical chemistry of aqueous systems, power cycle chemistry, environmental processes, and academic/research/industrial requirements and solutions.

Presenter: David Addison
2017 Australasian Heat Recovery Steam Generator Users Group (AHUG) meeting in Sydney, Australia.
Location: KKL Luzern, Lucerne, Switzerland
Presenter: David Addison
The conference addresses operational personeel, technical managers, plant engineers, boiler operators and service proviers as well as manufacturers of components and chemicals.
The event is dedicated to advancing the knowledge about film forming amines and products. Scientific papers and case studies will provide excellent insights into the latest developments in this field of cycle chemistry.
David Addison will be presenting on the possible application of film forming amines and film forming products in direct contact geothermal power plant systems
Location: Dresden, Germany
Presenter: David Addison
International Assoication for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS) annual meeting and sub meeting of the IAPWS Power Cycle Chemistry (PCC) group
Location: Cambridge, UK
Presenter: Judy Weir
The SCI IEX Conferences provide the opportunity for the ion exchange manufacturing and service companies, end user and researchers to present papers on the theory and practice of ion exchange and adsorbents and to discuss the industry’s contribution to current practice and future industrial developments.
Judy Weir will be presenting a paper at the conference that outlines the challenges of an ion exchange water treatment plant used to produce high quality make-up water for heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs). These HRSGs produce steam for use in both dairy food production and electricity production via a steam turbine, at a large dairy products processing factory in New Zealand. The site produces from raw milk, the largest volume of dairy ingredients in a single factory, anywhere in the world. It also has a cogeneration plant comprising of multiple gas turbines, HRSGs and a steam turbine, which produces all of the sites process steam and electricity demand, with the surplus electricity supplied to the national grid.
