In response to the December 2008 TVA Kingston, TN ash release, the EPA has been taking steps to assess economizer ash facilities around the country.  In March 2009, the EPA began investigating facilities that store coal combustion residuals (CCR) onsite to evaluate which sites may pose a risk to the environment.  As a proactive measure, Alliant Energy initiated a preliminary study for their Burlington, Iowa generating station, contacting Aether DBS based on our expertise and previous work on the TVA project.

 Although our AFC™ blender is typically known for it’s application to synthetic natural gas (SNG) projects,  the mixing technology is beneficial to many industries.  The AFC™ blender can be used with a source of biogas or with by-product gas from processes, even if flow or quality are inconsistent.  Stop flaring unused gas!

Aether DBS announces the immediate availability of its WB series of Natural Gas line heaters.  The natural gas line heaters (also referred to as Glycol Heaters or Pipeline heaters) are used in the natural gas industry at Tap or Gate Stations.  These heaters help to prevent the formation of ice crystals with dramatic pressure drops.

Aether’s WB series natural gas line heaters are available with standard heating capacity of 500 to 18,000 SCFM.  In the vertical configuration, the WB series takes up as little as 4.5’ by 3.5’.  To simply the installation process, all of Aether’s line heaters are skid mounted with flange-in and flange-out connections.  Common options include containment system with float alarms, Maintenance Housing to enclose the control system as well as provide protection against the environment, and force draft burners to increase efficiency.

In addition to the standard designs, Aether’s team of design and applications engineer can configure the products to meet the application requirements.  Please contact us today to discuss how we can meet your requirements.

Mud poured down West Duluth’s hillside 40 years ago, loosed from the grip of tree roots excised for Spirit Mountain ski runs and Interstate 35.
