- Abstract
The present study consisted in monitoring the Turceni and Rovinari Energy Complexes, consisting of thermal energy blocks with very high installed capacity - 330 MW, which operate on lignite fuel. These blocks are located on the bank of the Jiu River, near the coal mines. Due to this technological process that pollutes the water, we monitored some of the physico-chemical parameters of the captured and discharged water, establishing that temperature is the most affected factor with implications on the ecosystems of the Jiu River. The evolution of the temperature in the operating system - open circuit - affects the Jiu waters at the maximum allowable limit. The monitoring of the physico-chemical parameters, especially of the temperature, determines the diminution of the thermal effects on the waters of the Jiu river, respectively the maintenance of an unpolluted fauna and flora. The electric energy produced by the thermoenergetical blocks is 65%. A feature of these energy complexes is the use of the Jiu River for both water capture and discharge. If the energy groups worked at full capacity, the technological waters discharged into the Jiu River would be heavily polluted, affecting flora and fauna.
