The Department of Energy Program for Development of Industrial Heat Recovery Equipment
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The Department of Energy (DOE) in their Industrial Programs Office in Conservation and Solar Applications is involved in development and commercialization of a number of energy conserving techniques. These include high and ...
Production of Medium BTU Gas by In Situ Gasification of Texas Lignite
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The necessity of providing clean, combustible fuels for use in Gulf Coast industries is well established; one possible source of such a fuel is to perform in situ gasification of Texas lignite which lies below stripping ...
Squeezing the Oil Out of Papermaking
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The paper making recipe calls for heavy helpings of natural resources such as air, water, fiber and combustibles. Economic stresses have already trimmed most ingredients, but papermaking can still be considered as an energy ...
Energy Challenges and Conservation Achievements in the Aluminum Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)

Energy Consumption and Potential for Energy Conservation in the Steel Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The domestic steel industry, being energy-use intensive, requires between 4 and 5 percent of total annual domestic energy consumption. More than two-thirds of total steel industry energy, however, is derived from coal. ...
Solid Waste as an Energy Source
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The cost history of conventional fuels over the past several years has forced a hard search for alternate energy sources. One alternate energy source that has gained more and more acceptance is solid waste. This is the ...
"Matrix/Modular" - An Approach to Analyzing Cogeneration Opportunities in Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1979)
The petrochemical industry has long recognized that electrical and mechanical energy can be generated as a by-product of its process steam requirements. Years ago, some petrochemical plants generated all of their own ...
