Turbine Inspection
Recent advances in natural gas exploration and extraction technology have led to skyrocketing projections of the amount of recoverable natural gas within US borders. This energy boom will result in the expanded use of gas-fired power plants to provide electricity to US homes and businesses over the coming decades. Not only does this mean cleaner and more abundant energy for the US environment and ...

High infrared emissivity coating for energy conservation and protection of inner surfaces in furnaces
The appearance of some new furnace construction materials, e.g. ceramic fibre insulations and high emissivity coatings (such as "ENECOAT") [1,2] requires the revision of the traditional wall structures. Research was done regarding a silicon carbide based furnace coating. Its emissivity is considerably greater than that of the material onto which it was applied. The basic phenomena ...

UK carbon floor price could weaken British competitiveness
New report claims the UK carbon floor price will cut carbon emissions 5.3% by 2020, but could put the UK at a competitive disadvantage with Europe. New research released today from Thomson Reuters Point Carbon suggests that the UK’s proposed carbon floor price will cut carbon emissions from the UK energy industry 5.3% by 2020, but could undermine the country’s competitiveness by ...

Problems of catalytic boiler safety and their role in designing and operation of gas-fired boiler
In the following paper, some problems of safety for catalytic boilers with fixed and fluidised beds are discussed. The reason is to protect the boiler from gas and fuel-air mixture explosion. For it the conditions excluding the transition from catalytic combustion to flame must be observed, and they are presented in the article for different combustible gases. A special attention has been paid to ...

Efficiency and the not-to-be-ignored gas-fired plant
Carbon dioxide emissions dropped significantly in the US in 2009. The economy played an obvious role; not so obvious was the influence of power generation and its increasing efficiency. CO2 emissions have been trending down for the last decade by about 0.9%. But the 2009 drop was far more dramatic -- 7% -- the largest decline since the Energy Information Administration began keeping ...

Mr. Pickens, what about plug-in hybrids?
T. Boone Pickens deserves kudos for his attention-grabbing television campaign aimed at helping America kick the oil habit. The billionaire energy fund manager can stop the most dedicated channel surfer mid-click when he proclaims that our spending on foreign oil could soon become the largest transfer of wealth in human history.Pickens’ plan has two parts. The first calls for more use of wind ...

Why European policymakers shouldn’t be concerned about security of gas supply
Gastech News: What are the key issues affecting gas companies today? Mark Simons: The biggest issue affecting gas companies within the European gas industry is low prices, because low prices mean less revenue and less profit. To add to that, in Europe, the competition for gas from coal and renewables means that demand is down and that’s shrinking the industry which of course is worrying ...

Fuel for thought: European energy market restructuring and the future of power generation gas use
The liberalisation of the West European electricity and gas markets, technological developments in power technology and environmental policies are expected to stimulate continued strong growth in power generation gas consumption. This paper examines the importance of three frequently disregarded considerations in the analysis of expanded gas use in power generation. These include: (a) better use ...

Energy, exergy, thermoeconomic and sustainability analyses of a building heating system with a combi–boiler
The energy, exergy, thermoeconomic and sustainability analyses are applied to the building heating system with a natural gas–fired combi–boiler. The building area is considered as 90 m². Furthermore, the design and analysis of the natural gas installation of the building are done. Two different methodologies (Fine–HVAC and LowEx analyses) are used for energy analyses (heat loss and demand) of the ...

Mitigating CO2 emissions by adjusting the power generation mix in Taiwan
In this paper, we employ a multi-objective programming model to estimate the power generation mix trade-off between generation costs and CO2 emissions in Taiwan. Eight policy scenarios are simulated and compared to the reference and base cases. The empirical results show that, for the electricity sector, CO2 emissions in 2010 could be set at 120% of the 1990 level, by way of promoting ...
