Fluor was selected by Louisville Gas and Electric Company to provide retrofitting services for Mill Creek Units 1 & 2 in Kosmosdale, Kentucky.

We were responsible for engineering and procurement, including the development of specifications, bidding, analysis of proposals, purchase recommendation, placement of orders, expediting and shop inspection for all project equipment, systems and materials.

We provided equipment arrangements and designed all foundations and the unique service building, which was critical to accommodate all the equipment in the confines of the available space. We also designed and procured the reagent storage and supply system and piping systems for the sludge circulating between the boiler heat exchanger and the flue gas reheater, as well as ash supplies to the sludge fixation plant, for the glycol and steam supply to the reheater sootblowers.

Electrical substations and motor control centers were added to supply power to the new loads. A full-capacity distributed computer control system was provided to allow monitoring and control of the FGD systems by the boiler operators and to minimize operator requirements while ensuring redundancy for outage avoidance. We designed automated start-up/shutdown logic and all control circuits and control wiring.
