A MESSAGE FROMTHE CONFERENCE CHAIRThe Executive Committee, Advisory Council Companies and theEngineers’ Society of Western Pennsylvania are proud to welcome youto Pittsburgh and the Annual International Water Conference — theworld’s premier industrial water conference.

It is only through exchange of information that one can hope to keep upwith the rapidly changing world around us. The International WaterConference covers every important aspect of the water industry todayand the business of managing water.

The technical sessions continue to be the heart of the Conference. Youwill be able to select the topical area of your choice from one of the foursimultaneously occurring sessions. The total of 19 sessions will offersubjects ranging from traditional offerings to newer topic areas of busi-ness practices and engineering software.

If networking opportunities are on your agenda, you will find the per-fect opportunity by visiting the Info Share suites, receptions and lun-cheons which will be occurring throughout the Conference. All of theleaders in the water treating communities — both technical and market-ing — will be available at company sponsored Info Share suites.

Two information packed, interesting luncheons will be featured atthis year’s IWC. The Monday Luncheon features Mr. David Tackett,President of FirstEnergy Generating Services Corporation. Mr. Tackettwill review the joint project between BP and Toledo Edison’s BayshoreFacility. Tuesday’s luncheon subject is entitled, “Ask The Experts, Make-up Water Demineralization”. Moderator Eli Salem, V.P. Technology,Ecodyne, LTD, and a panel of experts in the areas of packed and mixedbed ion exchange, reverse osmosis and EDI will discuss questions fromthe audience related to demineralization.

The 59th Annual International Water Conference, more than ever, willbe the world’s premier waterconference. IWC offers theunparalleled opportunity tolearn, exchange information,network, and we are confidentthat you will take home with youa truly intellectual and sociallysatisfying experience.

L U N C H E O NBP AND BAYSHORE —A NEW WAY OF DOING BUSINESSSternwheeler Room, William Penn Level

12:00pm The BP Toledo Refinery is upgrading its facilities to becomemore efficient and profitable. This is being accomplished inpart by processing a less expensive grade of crude oil at therefinery. This upgrade will result in production of morethan 500,000 tons/year of petroleum coke as a wasteproduct. Recycling this waste as a fuel at the nearby BayShore Toledo Edison Power Plant will save BP significantdisposal costs and provide Toledo Edison with a low costsource of fuel. This project is expected to retain nearly 700jobs in the community, in addition to having a positivefinancial impact on both companies.

David L. Tackett, President of FirstEnergy ServicesCorporation’s unregulated Generation Services Groupwill discuss the Bay Shore Project and provide interestingperspectives of how large energy companies are approach-ing unique projects in preparation for deregulation.

10:40am CHEMICALLY FOAM CLEANING HIGH PRESSURESTEAM TURBINESJames R. Ruck, Charles D. Foster, HydroChem Indus-trial Services, Inc., Pine Grove, CA

IWC-98-30 Paper

Some utilities have copper carryover into the steam-cyclesystem and are plating copper on their steam turbines.The most common method for removing these deposits isto schedule an outage when the turbine is dismantled andthe blades are sand or grit blasted. An alternate methodfor removing copper is to foam clean the turbine, withoutdismantling.

IWC-98-69 ReportData collected to monitor any process is a valuable re-source. It can tell how the process is performing, andpoint to areas where improvements can be made. Thispaper shows how the use of a computer can facilitate thecollection, storage, retrieval and interpretation of rawdata acquired around a process.


8:35am USING COMPUTERS FOR SHARING KNOWLEDGENicholas J. Furibondo, Nalco Chemical Company,Naperville, IL

IWC-98-70 ReportComputers are often considered “computing machines,”useful only as number crunchers. This paper highlightsapplications (groupware) in which computers are usedas a communications device, allowing groups of peoplethe ability to share knowledge, collaborate to develop bestthinking/best practices documents, and to deploy thisknowledge throughout the enterprise.

IWC-98-71 PaperThe greatest ability to influence a wastewater treatmentproject’s cost takes place at the earliest stages of thatproject. Most times, the process criterion has determinedthe economics of a project without the necessity of trulyquantified cost information. This paper presents theoutcome of a cost modeling approach found to eliminateuncertainty by quickly quantifying “what if” scenarios tohelp determine the most cost effective project alternative.

IWC-98-80 Paper

Modern commercial CFD software with sophisticated gridrefinement and boundary condition capabilities was usedto simulate the dilution characteristics of multiport waste-water diffusers in interaction with strong recirculatingflows produced by the discharge of condenser coolingwater from the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station intoLake Ontario. Preliminary attempts to model these inter-acting flows using either trational CFD models or industry-standard empirical methods proved unsuccessful.

There is a noticeable shortage of treatment options com-bining good environmental profiles with acceptable cost-performance under soft to moderate hardness coolingwater conditions. This paper presents the development,laboratory performance data, and case history of a for-mulation, based on a novel phosphonocarboxylatemixture (PCM), which addresses this delicate balance.

Tetrakishydroxymethylphosphonium sulfate (THPS)biocides combine activity against both bacteria and algaewith a relatively benign toxicology profile. Compared toother biocides, THPS provides a reduced risk to bothhuman health and the environment, and has received theUS Presidential Green Chemistry Challenge Award.
