Hyflux named Preferred Bidder for Tuas II Desalination Plant, SingaporeCamille Hurn
Hyflux was named the preferred bidder for the Tuas II Desalination Plant in Singapore, which will be the country's largest seawater desalination plant. The $890 million project involves designing, building, owning, and operating a 318,500 cubic meters per day seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant over a 25-year concession period. Hyflux's role includes undertaking 100% of the engineering, procurement, and construction work as well as 100% of the operations and maintenance through its subsidiaries. The desalination plant is expected to begin operations in 2013 and will help ensure Singapore's water security by providing approximately 13% of the country's water demand.

Renewable electricity from large-scale, off-site projects has become an attractive option for large companies. Leading corporations have taken advantage of this opportunity by signing deals, but to date, only a handful of companies have joined the “off-site renewables club.” This session takes you through what's ahead for corporate renewable purchasing and emerging solutions. It will show through how companies are overcoming obstacles and introduce ideas of how to navigate and simplify the process.
This document discusses different forms of energy and their uses. It covers fossil fuels like oil, coal and natural gas, as well as renewable sources including solar, wind and hydroelectric power. Solar power can be generated through photovoltaic systems or concentrating solar power. Wind power is economically viable according to a university study. Hydropower harnesses the kinetic energy of moving water through dams to spin turbines and generate electricity, though it can impact downstream water flow. Renewable sources may provide alternatives as fossil fuels are depleted.
Renewable energy sources include sunlight, geothermal heat, tides, wind and biomass. These sources generate clean energy without pollution or climate change. The main types are solar, wind, hydropower, biofuels and geothermal. Solar energy is captured through photovoltaic cells and solar thermal collectors. Wind energy is harnessed via wind turbines in wind farms, and hydropower uses the force of moving water in dams to generate electricity. Biomass and biofuels come from organic matter like plants, and geothermal taps heat from within the earth.
This document summarizes a session that covered renewable energy technologies including wind, solar, hydroelectric and bioenergy. It provides an overview and key topics for each technology discussed in previous sessions. These include the development of larger wind turbine sizes, repowering existing wind systems, and offshore wind as the new frontier. For solar PV, important topics are silicon-based versus thin-film and location dependence. Concentrating solar power summaries included different system technologies and hybrid applications. The session concluded with an interview of the Alumniportal Content Manager and an outlook toward challenges and plans for 2011.

This document summarizes research on fly ash-based geopolymer concrete. Fly ash-based geopolymer concrete has several advantages over traditional Portland cement concrete, including higher compressive strength, lower creep and shrinkage, and not requiring Portland cement. The research studied different mix designs of geopolymer concrete, varying the ratios of fly ash, aggregates, sodium hydroxide, sodium silicate, and water. The third mix design achieved the highest compressive strength. The research concluded that higher sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate ratios and longer curing times increase compressive strength of fly ash-based geopolymer concrete.
