    • Distillation: Energy Savings and Other Benefits From the Use of High Efficiency Packings 
      Bravo, J. L.; Fair, J. R.; Humphrey, J. L. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
      A great deal of attention has been focused lately on the use of high-efficiency packings for distillation applications. This paper discusses benefits that can be derived from the use of these devices. In particular, ...
    • Energy Recovery By Direct Contact Gas-Liquid Heat Exchange 
      Fair, J. R.; Bravo, J. L. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1988-09)
      Energy from hot gas discharge streams can be recovered by transfer directly to a coolant liquid in one of several available gas-liquid contacting devices. The design of the device is central to the theme of this paper, ...
    • New Energy Efficient Method for Cleaning Oilfield Brines with Carbon Dioxide 
      Little, C. T.; Seibert, A. F.; Bravo, J. L.; Fair, J. R. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
      Water contaminated with hydrocarbons often results during the production of oil. The polluted water, which may be naturally occurring or a result of water or steam flooding operations, must be cleaned before disposal ...
    • Potential Energy Savings by Using Alternative Technologies for the Separation of Fluid Mixtures 
      Bravo, J. L. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
      The focus of this work is to analyze alternative processes and technologies for the separation of fluid mixtures with respect to energy consumption. In an effort to illustrate the dramatic potential energy savings of ...
    • Separations-Energy-Environment, A Dynamic Relationship 
      Bravo, J. L. (Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
      Energy and pollution of the environment (and its control) relate to each other in different ways and at different levels. The relationship between energy flows and pollution generation or control can be formalized at ...
