Eastern Michigan University (EMU) is located in Ypsilanti, Michigan, approximately 35 miles west of Detroit and 8 miles east of Ann Arbor. It was founded in 1849 as a small teachers college and today has grown into a major public learning and research institution with over 21,000 students. EMU historically has been a leader in energy efficiency and sustainability. In 1987, the University ...
ENER-CORE TECHNOLOGY Ener-Core’s oxidizer technology is developed to convert typically non-utilizable low energy gas into continuous clean energy TESTING/EMISSIONS SUMMARY To simulate the low-Btu fuel, a portion of the turbine inlet air volume was displaced by CO2 and N2. Steady system operation based on internal oxidizer temperatures, emissions and exit ...
Today, Solar Turbines continues to operate and maintain the CHP system. The main installation consists of two packaged Solar TaurusTM gas turbine generator sets and two Deltak heat recovery steam generators (HRSGs) for generating steam at 125 psig. The Taurus gas turbine generator sets are rated at 7.5 MW each, giving a total CHP system capacity ...
