CB&I has been awarded two contracts with a combined value in excess of $40 million for an air quality control program for five existing coal-fired units. The units represent more than 4,000 megawatts of electric generating capacity.
CB&I will provide turnkey engineering, procurement and construction for implementing modern air quality control technologies that will reduce mercury emissions to bring the units in compliance with the Environmental Protection Agency’s Mercury and Air Toxics Standards (MATS).
