(2015-08-05)Government regulations on emission standards and constantly fluctuating fuel availability and prices have led to the need of more readily usable and available models for power generating combustors. A common, versatile, ...
-
(2009-05-15)Dairy biomass (DB) is evaluated as a possible co-firing fuel with coal. Cofiring of DB offers a technique of utilizing dairy manure for power/steam generation, reducing greenhouse gas concerns, and increasing financial ...

Depositional environment of the Sam Miguel lignite deposit in Atascosa and McMullen Counties, Texas (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1985)Previous investigators interpreted the San Miguel lignite to be the result of swamps and/or marshes that existed on the landward side of a lagoon. The partings were "fire-splay" deposits that originated from coastal streams ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)An engine cycle simulation for a coal-fueled internal combustion, reciprocating engine was developed. The primary objective of this work was to develop the simulation for evaluating the viability of coal fuels for engines. ...
-
(2010-01-16)The low NOx burner (LNB) is the most cost effective technology used in coal-fired power plants to reduce NOx. Conventional (unstaged) burners use primary air for transporting particles and swirling secondary air to create ...
-
(2014-04-25)Mesquite and juniper can be beneficially utilized for gasification and combustion applications. Torrefaction has been considered to be one of the thermal pretreatment options to improve the chemical (e.g. heat content) and ...
-
(2012-11-28)Markets have always changed in response to either exogenous or endogenous shocks. Many large events have occurred in financial and energy markets the last ten years. This dissertation examines market behavior and volatility ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Most practical combustor systems such as boilers, gas turbines, Diesel engines, rocket engines, etc. use liquid and/or solid fuels as the energy source. Combustion intensity is controlled by the gasification, mixing and ...
-
(2009-05-15)Of all the trace elements emitted during coal combustion, mercury is most problematic. Mercury from the atmosphere enters into oceanic and terrestrial waters. Part of the inorganic Hg in water is converted into organic Hg ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1983)Coal Analysis is ordinarily divided into three parts: (1) Proximate analysis, determination of moisture, volatile matter, fixed carbon and ash contents; (2) Ultimate analysis, determination of carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, ...
-
(2009-05-15)Coal fired power plants produce NOx at unacceptable levels. In order to control these emissions without major modifications to the burners, additional fuel called reburn fuel is fired under rich conditions (10-30 % by heat) ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)Foam is displacing wet suppression as the method of choice for controlling fugitive emissions from coal. Coal treated by wet suppression consumes through moisture addition, a heat energy equivalent of 1 ton out of every ...
