Combined cycle power plants burning natural gas offer various advantages such as high efficiency, low environmental impact, smaller specific investments and shorter construction periods which lead to a more flexible response to uncertain future electricity ...
Natural Gas is one of the few truly viable alernatives to liquid fuels which does not significantly alter the user’s perception of the vehicle. Natural gas has several major advantages, particularly in terms of environmental impact however a number of obst ...
As our awareness of the dangers of global climate change grows, the development of new renewable energy technologies is of primary importance in the effort to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Rapid increases in the price of oi ...
Hybrid solar thermal power plants (with parabolic trough type of solar collectors) featuring gas burners and Rankine steam cycles have been successfully demonstrated by California's Solar Electric Generating System (SEGS). This system has been proven to be ...
The main goal of this master is to define and analyse the best layout options for a combined cycle power plant. The gas turbines used for this combined cycle are known. Methods for power augmentation of the gas turbine are considered. Different layouts and ...
This paper illustrates a methodology developed in order to facilitate the analysis of complex systems characterized by a large number of technical, economical and environmental parameters. Thermo-economic modeling of a natural gas combined cycle including ...
Within the global challenge of climate change and energy security, hydrogen is considered as a promising decarbonized energy vector to be used in electricity production and transportation. In this paper, the thermo-chemical production of hydrogen by natura ...
In the public and scientific debate on biofuels, ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass is generally the most popular alternative that may allow for a sustainable production. Compared to thermochemical processing of biomass which assures a complete conversio ...
Competition in liberalized energy markets and increasing environmental concerns call for industrial power generation that is both cost effective and environmentally friendly. This is true for both the operation of existing as well as the development of new ...
