164 READER SERVICE SECTION
Idlng on completion 240,000 kitowatta to the outjnit-of the Metropolitan Edison Company of Readint- Pa., the company'* new Titus Station is now
io'qperation producing 160,000 kilowatts. Designed and constructed by Gilbert Associates, Inc., of Read ing Pa, Titus is expected to be in capacity operation
ly next year. Steam for each of the two 80,000-kw turbine^generators now in service, and for the third, soon
into service, is supplied by a Combustion fngineering-Superheatcr Boiler at 1450 pei and gOP<3 P, reheated to 1000 P. These C-E Boilers are
PjdverUed coal fired.
Each Combustion Boiler has been designod to incorporate two Ljungstrom Air Preheaters which preheat incoming combustion air to 600 F, and cool
exit gases to 280 P. At Titus, os at scores of power plant installations
across the country, once again the broad general acceptance of the Ljungstrom Air Preheater for top efficiency stenm generating units is demonstrated. Ljungstroms placed in service or on order eince 1945 alone -- selected by every major boiler manu facturer, consulting engineer and utility -- are serv ing boilers with an aggregate capacity of over 285,000,000 pounds of steam per hour.
