Energy Conservation Revamps in Fluid Catalytic Cracking Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
The FCC process continues as one of the major refinery technologies despite changes in refinery operations. The main fractionator/vapor recovery systems associated with many FCC units have the potential for significant ...
Sensitivity Analysis of Factors Effecting the Financial Viability of Cogeneration Projects
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
Cogeneration represents an alternative available for industry to take advantage of energy conservation through simultaneous generation of thermal energy and electricity. A positive regulatory climate can further contribute ...
Selecting Financing Strategies to Overcome Corporate Barriers
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
If energy conservation is such a good idea, why are we still having conferences to discuss ways to conserve? Why isn't every industrial building in America retrofit and the issue resolved? The list of answers to that ...
Proper Design Saves Energy for Molecular Sieve Dehydration Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
The molecular sieve system is a significant energy user in the cryogenic gas plant. Designing and operating the system properly can save thousands of dollars in fuel each year. A poorly designed energy saving system can ...
Foam Processing of Textiles
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
Foam processing is an energy-conserving alternative to the conventional wet processing, i.e., dyeing, printing and finishing, of textiles. Where water is ordinarily used as a medium to apply dyes or chemicals to a fabric, ...
Heat-Traced Fluid Transfer Lines
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
This paper discusses basic considerations in designing a heat tracing system using either team or electrical tracing. Four basic reasons to heat trace are dealt with: water freeze protection, chemical freeze protection, ...
Energy Conservation in the Clean Environment: A Design for All Seasons
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
Clean rooms for microelectronic manufacturing are becoming increasingly complex. As the space between the lines on the mask of the silicon chip approaches one and one-half microns, the need for ultra clean and precision ...
Is Conservation a Legitimate Goal of Regulation?
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
Conservation of energy is a frequently cited goal of utility rate regulation. Implementing this goal through modification of consumer behavior has been achieved with varying degrees of success through rate design, incentive ...
Motivation: A Soft Approach to Energy Management
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
In the last ten years, industrial managers have become aware of the impact that energy problems can have on the effectiveness of their businesses. This has required management to redefine goals, develop competence in new ...
