Two new circulating fluidized beds (CFBs),
the largest in the world, were installed at the
JEA Northside Station Units 1 & 2 to repower
existing steam turbines with more efficient,
environmentally cleaner technology. Each
consists of two CFB boilers exhausting
through independent dry scrubbers and
fabric filters to a common stack. Each boiler can produce 1,994,000 lbs/hr of steam at
2,635 psia.

MWH
The primary goal was to provide all technical
staff in the UK and MWH’s design office in
India with fast access to a single database
with multiple data stores in a secure and
managed environment. The system needed to
manage Autodesk and Bentley CAD applications. The budget was £170,000.
MWH has been able to use the full UK CAD
Design resource in its multiple locations in a
virtual secure environment. Easy access to
existing data has also improved the re-use of
existing data for new projects.
Project Wise has given MWH the following:
1. Reference file management
2.Version control
The chief workflow efficiency derived from
ProjectWise was easy access to all UK data
