MOORBURG - Hamon Thermal Germany GmbH

MOORBURG – Germany
Vattenfall Europe awarded the turnkey supply of the Moorburg plume abated fan assisted cooling tower to
the consortium of Alpine GmbH for the civil works and Hamon Thermal Germany GmbH for the process
design and cooling equipment.
This cooling tower is unique in its design because it serves the two 800 MW blocks of the Moorburg power
station independently from each other. Most of the year, the Moorburg power station can be cooled with
fresh water from the river Elbe. But for a few months, the heat discharge into the river Elbe is limited due
to environmental reasons and this requires circuit cooling via the cooling tower either for one or two
blocks.
This cooling tower concept received best public acceptance because it avoids visible plume most of the
time and combines limited height – lower than the plant main building – and ground surface.
