Taber International provides engineering services for fossil fired power plants, focusing on heat rate gains and NOx emissions reductions. Balancing the needs of low cost production with the increasing demands of environmental compliance is a delicate task. With decades of experience, Taber International, LLC is working with electric utilities towards achieving efficiency gains and emissions reductions. The firm offers engineering services for fossil fired power plants, focusing on heat rate gains and NOx emissions reductions. Taber has developed applications in the areas of combustion optimization and intelligent sootblowing utilizing the signature software system, the Griffin Open Systems Toolkit®. As an open system the user has access to the logic, models and tuning leading to lower maintenance support needs and costs. Taber also evaluates subsystems often considered fixed, such as the efficiency of the hydrogen cooled generator. Taber applications and the Griffin Toolkit can be a key to meeting objectives created by the EPA 111(d) clean coal regulations. The Griffin Toolkit allows for rapid development, testing and deployment of new applications in a real-time environment avoiding costly delays associated with compiling and deploying code. The Taber and Griffin partnership offers an option unique to the industry â a corporate license. This option allows the user to deploy an unlimited number of systems within their enterprise without additional licensing costs or multiplicity of maintenance fe
