Turbine Discharge Expansion Joint for Geothermal Power Plant in the Azores
An
Elbow Pressure Balanced MPB-E Series Expansion Joint DN 1200 mm and
3780 mm long has been successfully designed, manufactured and tested for
the Pico Alto Geothermal Power Plant in the Terceira Island, Azores
Archipelago (PT).
The plant, that is planned to be fully operational by the beginning of 2017, will exploit the resource by means of an efficient cycle design that utilizes the heat available either in the geothermal brine and steam flows in its heat exchangers. No extra water will be used thanks to the direct air cooling of the working fluid.
Geothermal power plants use the natural heat of the earth to generate electricity for homes and businesses. Geothermal power is a renewable source of energy and does not rely on coal or other fossil fuels to create electricity.
In the last years MACOGA has successfully delivered highly engineered Expansion Joints to quite a few number of Geothermal Plants all over the world like the:
