Story

The OAHU provides clean air for the plant’s administration building. The two intake-air stacks retrieve air at 40 feet above the grade which has a concentration of hydrogen sulfide (HS) approximately 90% less than at the grade level.

The air is scrubbed of the HS, dried, processed with neutral humidity, and released into a building’s air distribution duct system and then exhausted as one-pass air.

Outside air handling unit equipment and systems:

  • Fan wall with six fans
  • Two heating water pumps
  • Two electric boilers
  • One electric water heater
  • Two pre-cool coils
  • Two post-cool coils
  • Two pre-heat coils
  • Two Re-heat coils
  • Four carbon filter racks
