More than ever, power plants — whether powered by nuclear energy or fossil fuels — need purified water to prolong equipment life, prevent corrosion, and enable uninterrupted operation. The communities they power depend on it. High purity water is also able to better protect against erosion and damage to equipment.
DuPont Water Solutions offers world-class innovation and expertise for power generation in fossil and nuclear power plants. We work closely with local utilities, service providers, and equipment manufacturers to provide whole and integrated solutions that make a difference.
Cooling tower water can present a number of operational challenges for power generation plants. If not properly treated, the water that flows through these towers can cause scaling, corrosion, contamination, and fouling issues.
Our industry-leading knowledge and local expertise in cooling water treatment can help you define a strategic solution that saves money, prevents problems, and helps better manage overall water resources.
Our solutions address:
Coal fired and natural gas power plants need water to convert heat energy into electrical energy by driving the turbines that run the electric generators. Water quality affects the smooth operation of this system.
Our specialized water-treatment expertise can reduce costs and downtime — no matter the water source or pressure requirements — enabling a consistent and reliable source of electrical power.

Our technologies provide industry-leading, long-lasting, and cost-effective solutions. Learn more about the technologies relevant to the power generation industry.
UF uses a membrane barrier to exclude colloids, bacteria, and more; for pretreatment in demineralization, industrial water production, drinking water production, or wastewater reuse.
NF is a pressure-driven separation process positioned between reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration used to treat color and pesticides, and to partially soften the water.
RO is a pressure-driven separation process that reduces the smallest of solute particles and treats most ions and large molecules in the water.
IX uses polymeric resins capable of exchanging ions; applications include softening, bulk demineralization, trace contaminants removal, and condensate water polishing.
EDI is used as a polisher for boiler and ultrapure water makeup and can deliver the lowest conductivities, sodium, and silica in the product without chemical regeneration.
Systems can achieve up to 98% while operating under real-world conditions, a mark that most other reverse osmosis systems have yet to achieve.
