Economics of Concentration Processes in the Food Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The economics of four concentration processes utilized by the food industry were analyzed. The processes examined are: triple effect evaporation, mechanical vapor recompression evaporation, reverse osmosis, and freeze ...
Industrial Steam Power Cycles Final End-Use Classification
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Final end uses of steam include two major classifications: those uses that condense the steam against heat transfer surfaces to provide heat to an item of process or service equipment; and those that require a mass flow ...
Targeting of Potential Industrial Cogeneration at the Plant Site
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
This paper describes the Air Force's facility energy management program including how industry can help the Air Force meet its facility energy objectives. Background information on energy use and energy conservation efforts ...
Cogeneration Can Add To Your Profits
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The predicted rapid escalation of gas and electric costs, particularly in those utility systems predominantly fired by gas, make it important for both industry and utilities to evaluate the role of cogeneration in their ...
Variable Speed Pumping for Level Control
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
The purpose of this paper is to describe an application of variable speed pumping to level control of an industrial process. Topics include a comparison of the process using control valves with a variable speed system, an ...
Harvesting Residuals-Economic Energy Link
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
A description of systems used in integrated
harvesting of quality and unmerchantable trees is
outlined for three areas in New Brunswick, Canada.
The silvicultural benefits and the use of residues
as an alternative to ...
Realistic Industrial Scale Energy Optimization: Part II - Analytic Techniques
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
With long term predictions of increased cost and reduced availability of energy, plant managers are reviewing their options to optimize energy utilization to reduce operating costs. This paper deals with the organization ...
Energy Efficient Industrial Building Design
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The design of industrial buildings today is still largely unaffected by energy legislation and building technologies. The present corporate tax structures for industry do little to encourage investment of capital for future ...
Economic Options for Upgrading Waste Heat
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
There are at least six major types of equipment that upgrade waste heat:
(1) thermocompressor; (2) electric drive compressor heat pump; (3) absorption heat pump; (4) high temperature heat powered compressor heat pump; ...
Design for, and Evaluation of Life Cycle Performance
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Project evaluation necessarily requires
performance estimates over the project life
cycle. In contrast to new and clean conditions,
extended life performance inherently
introduces additional complexity and variability
in ...
