Power & Utilities
Boiler, heat-recovery, water-treatment and emission-control equipment, SCR catalysts and modernisation support for thermal, captive and industrial power generation.
How we help
How MINCAT works with power & utilities clients
We help power and utility operators select boilers, turbines, heat-recovery, water-treatment and emission-control equipment and coordinate the engineering partners for upgrades and new units.
Power and utility plants — whether grid-scale, captive or the steam and power island of a process complex — are under simultaneous pressure to improve efficiency, reduce emissions and extend life. The projects that follow are usually retrofits: emission-control systems, heat-recovery improvements, water-treatment upgrades, boiler component replacement and controls modernisation.
MINCAT supports plant owners with equipment sourcing for boilers, heat-recovery steam generators, water treatment and flue-gas systems; SCR catalyst evaluation and programmes; and owner-side coordination of engineering and EPC partners for modernisation and captive-power projects.
Typical requirements
Requirements we regularly receive from this industry
- SCR catalyst supply or replacement with performance guarantees
- Boiler component or HRSG replacement sourcing
- Water-treatment plant upgrade with supplier qualification
- Flue-gas cleaning retrofit with EPC partner selection
- Captive power plant development for an industrial complex
- Controls and instrumentation modernisation

- Refractories and insulation
Technical considerations
What usually decides the outcome in power & utilities
Emission limits set the technology
Applicable NOx, SOx and particulate limits determine which abatement route and catalyst volume are needed.
Outage windows are fixed
Retrofit scope, materials and contractors are planned against the plant's outage calendar.
Water chemistry is plant-specific
Treatment-plant design and resin or membrane selection depend on the raw-water analysis and boiler requirements.
MINCAT's role and scope
What we do for power & utilities clients
Engineering, manufacture, construction and commissioning are delivered by qualified partners under their own contracts. MINCAT coordinates on your side within an agreed scope.
Coordination, evaluation and support
- Equipment and package manufacturer qualification for pressure parts, flue-gas and water systems
- SCR catalyst supplier evaluation and programme coordination
- Engineering and EPC partner identification for retrofits and captive power
- Owner-side coordination of enquiries, inspection and delivery
How engagements are structured
- Retrofit comparisons include outage duration and performance guarantees, not only equipment price.
- Catalyst programmes are compared on guaranteed life and pressure drop.
- Fees are agreed in advance and are independent of which technology, supplier or contractor is selected.
