TUNGSTEN CARBIDE EXTENDS LIFE OF ID FAN BLADES

摘要

Tennessee Valley Authority's (TVA) Kingston power plant entered operation in 1955 and is one of 11 coal-fired power plants owned and operated by the TVA. The plant is located just west of Knoxville, TN, at the junction of the Tennessee and Clinch Rivers. At the time it was completed, Kingston was the largest coal-fired power plant in the world, a distinction that it held for more than a decade. The plant currently burns low sulfur coal from central Appalachia.
