State-run power equipment maker BHEL today said it has entered into a technology collaboration agreement (TCA) with HLB Power, Republic of Korea.
The collaboration is for in-house design and manufacture of large size gates and dampers for use in coal fired power plants, to be commissioned or retrofitted with high capacity emission control equipment, a BHEL statement said.
In the presence of Atul Sobti, CMD, BHEL, the TCA was signed by Subrata Biswas, Director (E, R&D) BHEL and Dr. Jong Weon Kim, CEO and Director, HLB Power at BHEL's corporate office here.
BHEL has been supplying conventional gates and dampers, manufactured at its boiler auxiliaries plant in Ranipet, for over three decades.
This TCA will help in establishing the capability for in-house design, manufacture and testing of very large size gates and dampers, the company said.
BHEL is fully geared to manufacture and supply locally engineered and manufactured emission control equipment for Indian thermal power plants to meet the Environment Protection (Amendment) Rules 2015 notified by the ministry of environment, forest and climate change, it added.
