Turnkey boiler house
23 June 2014
Spirax Sarco has completed handover of a £1.5m turnkey boiler house project, part of a £4.3m waste-to-energy plant at Davyhulme in Manchester owned by United Utilities.

The scope of the contract included three boilers, two boiler feedtanks and a comprehensive water treatment system. It also included all the associated controls to enable the boilerhouse to run unmanned and maximise energy efficiency, such as automatic TDS and bottom blowdown systems.
Main design and build contractor for the Davyhulme project, Black & Veatch, carried out comprehensive operational and performance testing over a 28-day period. Although the tests were very challenging, the performance requirements and guarantees were all successfully achieved at the first attempt.
