Power & Energy

Request a Consult
Power and energy plants that partner with CRB Water achieve reliable operation, maintain peak efficiency, and extend equipment life through integrated feed and control of advanced treatment programs.
  • Maximize uptime and reliability
  • Improve efficiency and performance
  • Extend equipment life

CRB Water helps power and energy facilities protect critical assets—turbines, boilers, and cooling systems—from outages, rising operating costs, and performance loss.

Downtime Risks
Scale, corrosion, and deposits reduce heat-transfer efficiency, lower power output, and trigger unplanned outages. Each hour offline cuts production, disrupts load schedules, and impacts profitability.
Regulatory & Environmental Pressure
EPA and state regulations require tight control over emissions, chemical handling, and environmental performance. Noncompliance can lead to fines, derates, or costly remediation.
Asset Degradation
Poorly managed water accelerates boiler tube leaks, condenser scaling, and cooling tower inefficiency. These issues shorten equipment life, inflate maintenance budgets, and increase risk of forced outages.
