Abstract
In order to cope with the variety of needs for geothermal power plants, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has been making continuous efforts to develop the product to match with the needs. In this paper, the following recent technologies developed and being developed area introduced. 1) Wide range of modular turbine units from hundreds kW to 35 MW. 2-1) New concepts of Hydrogen Sulfide abatement system. 3) Non condensable gas injection system. 2-2) PSA - H2S (pressure swing absorption system for H2S absorption) 3) Geothermal steam scrubber.
