(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)An energy analysis made for the Joan of Arc Food Processing Plant in St. Francisville, Louisiana indicated that a significant quantity of waste heat energy was being released to the atmosphere in the forms of low quality ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1998-04)Incineration is a widely used process for disposing of solid, liquid and gaseous wastes generated in various types of industries. In addition to destroying pollutants, energy may also be recovered from the waste gas streams ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)In 1989 American & Efird, Inc., decided to upgrade their heat recovery system at its Dyeing & Finishing Plant in Mt. Holly, North Carolina. They chose an electric industrial process heat pump to enhance heat recovery ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)The use of Organic Rankine Cycle for waste heat recovery presents several characteristics which are analyzed in details. After a short comparison with steam cycles, the Organic Rankine Cycle is described : its simplicity ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)Shortages of fossil fuels and subsequent increasing prices and curtailments of these fuels have combined to accelerate the development of alternate energy sources. Waste heat recovery is one time-proven method of replacing ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1980)A case study is reviewed on a heat recovery system installed in a meat processing facility to preheat water for the plant hot water supply. The system utilizes waste superheat from the facility's 1,350-ton ammonia refrigeration ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)Flue gases exiting the stack of a boiler create thermal losses normally amounting to 15 to 20 percent of the high heating value of the fuel fired. By capturing and using this lost energy using condensing heat recovery, ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)Not too many years ago energy costs and efficiencies were virtually ignored by corporate decision makers. The prevailing attitude was 'my business is manufacturing and my capital is best spent improving and expanding my ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)The use of exhaust gas heat exchangers to preheat combustion air in forge and heat treat furnaces is discussed. The temperature range of the applications are 1200o -2400o F. The installations discussed involve both new and ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2009-05)WOW operates in the energy efficiency field- one of the fastest growing energy sectors in the world today. The two key products - WOWGen® and WOWClean® provide more energy at cheaper cost and lower emissions. •WOWGen® - ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)As energy costs continue to increase, one must be willing to accept greater complexities in heat recovery systems. The days of being satisfied with only simple hot product to cold feed exchange, restricted to the plot ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2008)Submerged Arc Furnaces are used to produce high temperature alloys. These furnaces typically run at 3000°F using high voltage electricity along with metallurgical carbon to reduce metal oxides to pure elemental form. The ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1996-04)The Texas A&M University Industrial Assessment Center (IAC) was one of the four Energy Analysis & Diagnostic Centers (EADC) that began providing waste management, in addition to energy and demand conservation, assessments ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1995-04)The Industrial Assessment Center at Texas A&M University has performed several waste and energy minimization surveys in small- and medium- sized industrial manufacturing plants in Texas. During these surveys, Industrial ...

(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)Waste minimization is an environmental good news story that Dow enjoys going out and talking about. The purpose of this paper is to introduce you to Dow's Waste Reduction Program. First, some background information ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)Several changes in the last few years have forced a re-examination of waste generation within the petrochemical industry. In today's political/regulatory arena, industrial waste, both hazardous and non-hazardous, has ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1990-06)'Waste Prevention' is unambiguous, as contrasted with 'waste minimization' or 'waste elimination'. It means preventing the production of waste. It isn't easy to do. Typically it requires major modification to the process: * ...
