2007 Field Trip

  • UF AWMA Organized the Field Trip to GRU Deerhaven Generating Station.
  • 20 students attended the field trip.
  • Plant manager Doug Beck and staff engineer Dan Ominski guided the tour inside the coal-fired unit. The students had a bird-eye view on the top of the boiler and they also visited the turbine and the control room.
  • Students learned hands-on knowledge on the configuration of a power plant and the process of power generation. They also learned the practical air pollution control devices/processes and understood the great effort GRU Deerhaven has made as a zero discharge plant.
