We’d like to share articles on engineering and maintenance solutions common to hydroelectric and water treatment installations.

Different Types of Turbines Used In Hydroelectric Power Plants

Hydroelectric power, or hydropower, is a type of power that uses the force of the flowing water to generate electricity. While there are a multitude of different hydroelectric facilities, they all use turbines/generators to convert the kinetic energy of flowing

Why Siloxane Removal Is Critical

The engineers at Sorensen Systems are all too familiar with the problems that power plant operators are having with biogas contaminated with siloxane. How can something so seemingly minor destroy turbines (and how can it be mitigated)?

Water Contamination In Hydraulic Systems

Water is one of the most common contaminants in a fluid power system and one of the most damaging. When water contaminates a system, it can cause serious problems.

Electrohydraulic Actuators for Water Treatment & Hydro Installations

Hybrid actuation systems reduce energy consumption and maintenance costs. See why we're excited about the possibilities of self-contained linear actuation.
