While it is clear that water plays has an essential role in any power station, it is surprising that processes that can increase efficiency in water usage, avoid costs and potentially increase revenue are often underutilised. The benefits of alternative methods of power plant construction and operation, such as those gained from outsourcing water treatment plants, are not always recognised. The case of a CHP plant serving a large plastics production facility in Thailand offers insights into the benefits that can be derived from water treatment ideas previously overlooked. The plastics production facility purchases steam from the CHP for process use in manufacturing a base product employed in the production of plastic goods. These projects bring to light a few simple ideas that can offer mutual benefits when a CHP and its customers are able to utilise resources to not only improve individual efficiency but reduce production costs on a large scale. In such conditions many options can be considered.
