Industrial Low Temperature Waste Heat Utilization
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1981)
In this paper, some common and emerging techniques to better utilize energy in the chemical process industries are discussed. Temperature levels of waste heat available are pointed out. Emerging practices for further ...
Pressure Swing Adsorption: An Energy Conservation Success Story
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Pressure swing adsorption is being successfully
used as an efficient separation process in
refining, chemical, petrochemical and gas processing industries. This separation process provides
a simple and economical ...
Thermal Storage Applications for Commercial/Industrial Facilities
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
Texas Utilities Electric Company has been
actively encouraging installations of thermal
storage since 1981. Financial incentives and
advantageous rates can make thermal storage an
attractive cooling concept in Texas ...
Thermal Storage Options for HVAC Systems
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1986-06)
With the ever-increasing cost of electricity
and the high demand charges levied by utility companies,
thermal storage for cooling is rapidly becoming
a widely recognized method to lower cooling
costs. There are three ...
Cogeneration Can Add To Your Profits
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
The predicted rapid escalation of gas and electric costs, particularly in those utility systems predominantly fired by gas, make it important for both industry and utilities to evaluate the role of cogeneration in their ...
The Future of Passive Solar in Industry
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu), 1985-05)
Passive solar is a family of techniques
for the direct use of sunlight for
illumination and heating. Industrial
facilities have characteristics which
particularly favor the use of these techniques.
This paper examines ...
Gas Separation Using Membranes
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1984)
Commercial membrane-based gas separator systems based upon high-flux, asymmetric polysulfone hollow fibers were first introduced in 1977 by Monsanto. These systems were packaged in compact modules containing large amounts ...
Improved Heat Transfer and Performance of High Intensity Combustion Systems for Reformer Furnace Applications
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Developments over the past fifteen years have evolved new short flame, high intensity (1,000,000 BTU/HR/ft3 ) combustion systems for industrial uses. Such systems produce a more uniform and higher heat flux than conventional ...
Practical Application of Second Law Efficiency Analysis
(Energy Systems Laboratory (http://esl.tamu.edu)Texas A&M University (http://www.tamu.edu), 1983)
Slowly but surely the direct application of the Second Law of Thermodynamics is being recognized, for its practical usefulness in engineering. This paper will describe the methods, and show the results of applications to ...
