Impressions of the Chemistry Conference
Chemie im Kraftwerk

The 53rd Chemistry Conference starts with the introduction of a new VGB standard on dosing systems in the water-steam cycle and the experience gained from the application of the VGB standard VGB-S-10 with the use of organic conditioning agents. In addition, further experiences and new insights into the water-steam cycle are presented.

In Germany, there is a new regulation on legionella in the cooling water cycle, which is presented as possibility to reduce the biology.

In the case of flue gas cleaning, new insights into the behaviour of N-S components in FGD waste water as well as the experience of new filter materials for de-dusting are presented.

Measures to reduce the radiological activity in nuclear power plant processes are presented against the background of the operating time end.
