    WA Parish Integrates Thermal Evaporation to Tackle FGD Wastewater (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    POWER’s 2026 Top Plant Water Award winner—WA Parish Unit 8 in Texas—integrated commercial-scale thermal evaporation into an operating coal plant, pairing verified performance with a retrofit that leveraged existing plant systems to demonstrate that FGD wastewater ZLD depends as much on plant integration as on treatment technology. Flue gas desulfurization (FGD) wastewater—the contaminated water stream produced when wet scrubbers remove sulfur dioxide from coal-fired plant exhaust gases—can be in

    Army Selects Three Developers for Commercial Power Projects at Six Installations (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The U.S. Army has conditionally selected three private developers to negotiate long-term leases for commercial power generation at six installations in a new Strategic Capital Initiatives round that could bring battery storage, natural gas, and nuclear generation onto Army land. On Sept. 18, the Army conditionally selected Ameresco, a Massachusetts-based energy infrastructure company, for Aberdeen Proving Ground in Maryland and Picatinny Arsenal in New Jersey. It also selected Indelible-Bloom—a

    What Does Fleetwide AI Actually Mean for the U.S. Nuclear Industry? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Nuclear plants have accumulated decades of operating experience, technical research, regulatory guidance, and other industry knowledge. Finding the right information, however, can mean searching several separate systems and then piecing the relevant material together. To address that search burden, Atomic Canyon, a company developing artificial intelligence tools for the nuclear industry, built the Nuclear Industry Virtual Assistant (NIVA). The company says the platform allows nuclear profession

    Purdue Nuclear Reactor Test Demonstrates Remote, Automated Power Control (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Engineers at Purdue University have, for the first time in the U.S., adjusted a nuclear reactor’s power experimentally, remotely and automatically in real time—a demonstration they say offers an early glimpse of how next-generation reactors could be monitored and controlled from hundreds or even thousands of miles away. The demonstration, revealed in July, linked PUR-1, Purdue’s 64-year-old research reactor, with Idaho National Laboratory (INL) and a Microsoft cloud system in a three-site loop s
