Treatment of Organic-Contaminated Wastewater by Pervaporation
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
The removal and recovery of organic contaminants from
aqueous streams by pervaporation membrane systems is a viable
and economical treatment for many waste streams. Specific
opportunities for the technology are identified ...
Development of Inexpensive Turbo Compressor/Expanders for Industrial Use
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
Use of Turbo Compressor/ Expanders
(TCEs) as industrial reversed Brayton Cycle
Heat Pumps offers many technical and energy
saving advantages. Until recently, such
devices have been far too expensive in both
capital ...
Retrofit for Plastic Resin Driers
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
Plastic resins used in injection molding have to be
dried to specified levels prior to feeding them to the
molding machines. Excess moisture if present could cause
damage to the injection nozzle and also could cause ...
Solid-Vapor Sorption Refrigeration Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
Complex compound sorption reactions
are ideally suited for use in refrigeration
cycles as an economically viable
alternative to CFC refrigerants. Complex
compound refrigeration provides a number of
energy-saving ...
Automatic Tube Cleaning Systems for Condensers and Heat Exchangers
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
The on-line Automatic Tube Cleaning
Systems (ATCS) for condensers and heat
exchangers provide a positive means for
automatic cleaning on a continuous
basis, while the exchanger or condenser
remains "on stream" and at ...
Optimum Temperature Difference and Pressure Drop in Heat Exchangers
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
Most processing is thermal. Reaction systems and separation systems are typically dominated by their associated heat exchange. Optimization of this heat exchange has a tremendous leverage on the ultimate process efficiency. ...
Mitigating Pollution Concerns through Process Integration Technology Steps
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
With increasing concern to reduce the
emission of SOx, NOx and CO2, there is a
growing awareness of making most
industrial processes more energy
efficient. It is believed that this can
be achieved through collaborative ...
Evaluating the DSM Potential for Industrial Electrotechnologies and Management Practices
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
In an effort to help
balance load requirements and generating capacity, Houston
Lighting & Power Company (HL&P)
contracted with SRI International
(SRI) to identify
existing and emerging
electrotechnologies and
management ...
New Energy Efficient Method for Cleaning Oilfield Brines with Carbon Dioxide
(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 ...
Analysis Methodology for Industrial Load Profiles
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1991-06)
A methodology is provided for evaluating the impact of
various demand-side management (DSM) options on industrial
customers. The basic approach uses customer metered load profile
data as a basis for the customer load ...
