John Zink Company, LLC Technology Selected for NOx-Reduction Project

TULSA, Okla., Oct. 20, 2005 – GE Energy’s Environmental Services organization will use TODD® burner technology from John Zink Company to retrofit an 800 MW utility boiler at Florida Power & Light’s Manatee Station near Sarasota. John Zink’s technology will be part of FPL’s overall initiative to reduce NOx emissions at the plant.

John Zink will supply 24 Dynaswirl-LN (DLN) burners to retrofit FPL’s utility boiler. The burners will operate with sub stoichiometric combustion airflow; GE’s proprietary reburn system and overfire air will add additional air and fuel to complete the combustion process. Installation of John Zink’s burners is scheduled for completion the fourth quarter 2005.
“Aside from the significant NOx reduction, John Zink’s DLN burner is easy to retrofit, which makes this enhancement ideal for this facility,” said Richard Brown, director of power systems at John Zink Company’s TODD Combustion Group. “We look forward to working with GE Energy’s Environmental Services organization and Florida Power & Light to meet the goal of reducing NOx emissions in the most cost-effective manner.”

John Zink’s low-NOx gas and oil-fired DLN burner systems reduce emissions for multi-burner and utility boilers. John Zink offers a complete range of energy-efficient, low-NOx burners with a full complement of parts and services, and burner accessories.
