ENVIRONMENTAL IMPLICATIONS IN THE DESIGN OF COOLING WATER INTAKES

Pages 33-48 | Published online: 23 Jan 2013
 

Abstract

One of the most important aspects of using surface waters at power plants relates to the withdrawal or intake of cooling water from the aquatic environment. This paper reviews several Canadian case studies involving environmental improvements at intakes, and outlines the stages in a general environmental approach to intake design.

Les problèmes d’environnement des prises d’eau constituent un des plus importants aspects dans l’utilisation des eaux de surface pour les centrales thermiques. L’objet de ce rapport est de présenter quelques projets canadiens et de discuter les améliorations successives des éléments des prises d’eau dans le cadre d’un concept général environnemental.
