David Bohn

A resident of Redding, CT, David Bohn is the president of Preferred Utilities Manufacturing Corporation. Augmenting his professional role, David Bohn of Redding, CT, is a member of the Council of Industrial Boiler Owners (CIBO).

CIBO will hold its Industrial Emissions Control Technology XVI Conference and Workshop from July 30 to August 2, 2018. The conference will take place at the Sheraton Imperial Hotel in Durham, North Carolina. The agenda of the conference will focus on reviewing emissions regulations, assessing their applicability, and discussing alternatives for industrial boilers.

For owners of industrial boilers, new regulations are making operations far more difficult than before. Many environmental regulations affecting industrial boiler operations are creating an unfavorable business environment for energy projects. However, since compliance is mandatory, industry players must come together to chart a way forward, whether it be by adding emission controls to allow the continued burning current fuels, switching to compliant fuels, or leveraging technological alternatives with fuel switching and load modification. The CIBO conference provides a venue for those in the industry to explore various solutions to these challenges. Attendees will also learn about technological advancements making cleaner energy possible, meet with regulators to discuss the impact of existing regulations, and network with other boiler operators to develop cost-effective compliance strategies.
