Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) collection and transport system for Ghent Power Station

We provided a Coal Combustion Residuals (CCR) collection and transport system to Ghent Power Station, Kentucky Utilities’ largest coal-fired power plant with a generating capacity of 1,932 megawatts. From the respective daily storage areas, each of the CCR materials are reclaimed onto series of conveyors.
