Absorber Vessels

 

CB&I has provided superior steel and alloy absorber vessels to the power generation industry for nearly two decades. These large towers process exhaust gases from flue gas desulfurization plants, producing compounds that can be safely disposed of or used for commercial applications.

We've been a leading supplier of major power plant components such as absorber vessels, stacks and chimney liners, and heat recovery steam generators for more than 70 years. We can safely and efficiently erect absorber towers or other structures of any size. In addition to field erection, we offer procurement services to ensure timely purchase and delivery of materials and components for our projects.

Experts in welding technology. Our expertise in welding and erecting steel plate and alloy structures is unsurpassed. We've been designing, fabricating, welding and erecting metal structures for more than 100 years. We self-perform these functions so we can control quality, manage costs and shorten schedules. Our craftspeople are experienced in hot forming, heat treating, weld assembly, non-destructive examination, blasting and painting. They are proficient at fabricating and welding steel and alloy components to exacting specifications.

Superior construction experience. Careful planning and execution are essential to the success of our projects. Our in-house construction technology group supports our field crews with expertise on materials staging, adapting work methods to site conditions, heavy lifting, rigging, equipment selection and other construction disciplines. We've developed specialized equipment for performing heavy lifts in congested work sites and innovative rigging techniques to ensure work is performed safely. Our long-standing, comprehensive safety program has resulted in one of the best safety records in the industry.
