The Role of the UK Energy Efficiency Office
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Last year the United Kingdom spent some £37bn on
energy. Analysis of energy use, through extensive
studies such as the Energy Efficiency Office's
"Energy Use and Energy Efficiency in UK
Manufacturing Industry up to the ...
Energy Comparison Vacuum Producing Equipment - Mechanical Vacuum Pumps vs. Steam Ejectors
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)
With manufacturing facilities placing increased emphasis on operating costs and environmental protection, replacement of inefficient or wasteful process methods is being considered.
In the past, the accepted method for ...
Energy Conservation Through Utility Systems Transient Response Analysis
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)
Utility systems stability is essential for energy efficient operation of a large industrial complex.
Analyses have been made of the transient responses of the steam and instrument air systems to various upsets that might ...
Wood Burning Combined Cycle Power Plant
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
A combined cycle power plant utilizing wood waste products as a fuel has been designed. This plant will yield a 50% efficiency improvement compared to conventional wood-fueled steam power plants. The power plant features ...
Industrial Energy Conservation: Are Market Pressures Sufficient or are Programs Needed?
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
This paper describes a regulatory view on the need for active public utility commission involvement in promoting energy efficiency and conservation. The author believes that “price-induced” conservation, while very ...
'The Overriding Demand for Energy Conservation in the Cement Industry' An Update
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)
Incentives and constraints to upgrade the U. S. cement industry and its energy efficiency are discussed. Emphasis is given to those measures most accessible to the industry, such as increased use of blended cements and ...
Energy Efficiency Revitalization
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)
To set the tone for my remarks I will start by saying- today, energy efficiency is a tough sell. In General Motors, our plant engineering people, faced with headcount deductions, budget cuts, and capital spending constraints ...
Utilization of Structured Packing for Energy Savings in Distillation and Absorption Columns
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
As the need to reduce production costs causes
manufacturers to re-evaluate processing schemes, high
efficiency structured packings are increasingly recognized
as an effective alternative for reducing energy consumption
in ...
High Speed Pumps Are No Longer Limited to Low Flow Applications
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Historically, the high-speed centrifugal pump was developed prior to World War II for rocket engine fuel pump applications for its advantages of light weight, compactness and dry running capability. Industrial derivatives ...
