Yokogawa Electric Corporation has announced that it will deliver a control system for a flue gas desulphurisation system that is to be installed at the Ugljevik coal-fired power plant in northeastern Bosnia and Herzegovina. The plant has a capacity of 300 MW, sufficient to supply a quarter of the total electrical generation capacity for the Republic of Srpska, which is one of the constituent entities of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Since it burns brown coal with a high sulphur content, the emissions from its flue stack contain high levels of sulphur dioxide. Installation of the flue gas desulphurisation system is expected to improve the environment and help satisfy environmental standards, which is required for joining the EU.
The main product delivered by Yokogawa will be a Centum VP integrated production control system for the monitoring and control of the flue gas system. Delivery will take place by August 2018.
