HC Deb 21 October 1985 vol 84 c14W
Mr. Ron Davies

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will list those companies in the United Kingdom manufacturing flue gas desulphurisation equipment and the value of any export orders achieved over the last five years.

Mr. Channon

Manufacturers of flue gas desulphurisation equipment are not specifically identified in statistical inquiries and statistics on export orders for such equipment are not available. Among the firms who are known to have the capability of manufacturing such equipment are Babcock Power Ltd, Davy McKee, Foster Wheeler Power Products Ltd, Lodge Cottrell Ltd and NEI International Combustion Ltd. It is believed that a small number of overseas orders have been secured, the details of which would be confidential.
