Case Studies of High Efficiency Electric Motor Applicability
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Much has been written about the advantages and disadvantages of high efficiency electric motors. For a given motor application it is possible to find literature that enables a plant engineer to make an informed choice ...
Integrated Design of Chemical Processes and Utility Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
The pinch concept for integrated heat recovery networks has recently become established in chemical process design. This paper presents an overview of the concept and shows how it has now been extended to total process ...
Combustion Catalysts in Industry - An Update
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Combustion catalysts improve boiler efficiency by extracting more heat energy from the fuel and by reducing heat losses when operating at minimum excess air. In addition, an effective combustion catalyst may reduce the ...
Master Plan For Improving Energy Efficiency
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Presidential Executive Order 12003, dated July 1977, directed all government owned or leased facilities to develop and execute a 10-year Energy Conservation Plan. With facilities in seven states totaling 15 million square ...
Energy Conservation-As it Applies to Condensate Return Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Valuable heat energy in condensate is wasted when it is vented to the atmosphere in the form of flash steam at many condensate pumping stations. This heat energy may be recovered and put to use if the pumping station can ...
Experience with 113 Retrofit Insulation Surveys
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
We have surveyed 113 plants for thirteen
clients. The results of 21 recent surveys at
today's average fuel price, show an average project
scope generation of $151,000 while saving about
5MMBTU/hour with a 72% DCF rate ...
Industrial Energy Conservation in Central America and Panama
(Energy System Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
The Regional Industrial Energy Efficiency Project (RIEEP) is the largest and most comprehensive energy conservation effort in Central America and Panama. This paper describes the regional economic and energy situation ...
The Developer's Role in the Cogeneration Business
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Although cogeneration technology is well-established, the business is new and still taking shape. Cogeneration projects involve a diverse mix of organizations, including equipment suppliers, engineering and construction ...
Coal-Fired Fluidized Bed Combustion Cogeneration
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
The availability of an environmentally acceptable
multifuel technology, such as fluidized bed
combustion, has encouraged many steam producers/
users to investigate switching from oil or gas to
coal. Changes in federal ...
An Integrated Approach to Evaluating the Technical and Commercial Options for Cogeneration Facilities in the Process Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Cogeneration under the PURPA law is providing opportunity to the Process Industry not only to conserve fuel and electric costs associated with commercial process production, but effectively to share in the revenue from the ...
