(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 2010)Fired heaters are the largest consumers of energy in refineries and petrochemical plants. Most heaters in the industry are not operating at their peak efficiency. There could be several reasons for that. One of the common ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1989-09)The changing industrial energy market is placing a new emphasis on the strategic element of energy planning. No longer a "lowest-cost analysis" discipline, successful energy planning today involved a sophisticated approach ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1990-06)High thermal efficiency and low levels of environmental emissions are priorities in the design of modern power plants. The M. W. Kellogg Company under funding from the Department of Energy, has recently completed a ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)There are frequently problems in arriving at an equitable assignment of costs to consumers and producers of utilities. A more equitable assignment of costs will lead to better operating decisions which improve overall ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)A new drying model originally derived for thin-wood veneer and successfully applied to the control of a veneer Jet Dryer may be extended for use in controlling the drying of such diverse products as textiles, dog food, ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)A broad program to identify and evaluate new types of hardware and processes to conserve oil and gas in chemical plants and petroleum refineries has been completed. During the course of this program, which was sponsored ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)New developments in closed loop combustion control are causing radical changes in the way combustion control systems are implemented. The recent availability of in line flue gas analyzers and microprocessor technology are ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)An extensive research project to derive guidelines for the design of a reliable bin-feeder system for biomass materials has been completed. The new system uses a converging mass flow hopper with a much smaller outlet ...
-
(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 ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2003-05)Improvements in technology certainly play a pivotal role in the quest for increased energy efficiency. However, sophisticated industrial energy users are increasingly learning that technology alone cannot drive ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.eslwin.tamu.edu), 1987-09)Ho hum, another conference about energy conservation. Oh, let's call it a conference on energy technology, maybe that will get the juices flowing again. No, let's try issues this time. Sure, let's spend time thinking ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 2002-04)New regulations drastically cut the emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) allowed from industrial combustors in the Houston-Galveston area. The law creates a NOx allowance Cap and Trade system that offers opportunities ...
-
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu); Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1982)The new industrial park energy supply (NIPES) concept is an attractive approach for providing a stable, long-term domestic energy source for industrial plants at reasonable cost and reasonable financial risk. The NIPES ...
