  • Synthesis Gas Combustion

    Fundamentals and Applications

    Edited by Tim Lieuwen, Vigor Yang, Richard Yetter ...
    Coal, still used to generate more than half of the electric power in the U.S., will likely be part of any future global energy plan. But this finite resource is also responsible for 80 percent of the CO2 emissions from power production, and its continued use will require improved processing techniques that are less damaging to the environment and l ...

  • Gas Turbine Emissions

    Edited by Tim C. Lieuwen, Vigor Yang ...
    Series Book 38 - Cambridge Aerospace Series
    The development of clean, sustainable energy systems is one of the pre-eminent issues of our time. Most projections indicate that combustion-based energy conversion systems will continue to be the predominant approach for the majority of our energy usage, and gas turbines will continue to be important combustion-based energy conversion devices for many decades to come, used for aircraft propulsion ...

  • Preparing for Peak Oil in South Africa

    An Integrated Case Study

    by Jeremy J. Wakeford ...
    Series series Energy (R0)
    Oil is the lifeblood of modern industrial economies. Petroleum powers virtually all motorized transport, which in turn enables most economic activities and provides mobility for citizens. But oil is a finite resource that is steadily depleting. In the past decade, the phenomenon of global peak oil – the fact that annual world oil production must at some point reach a maximum and then decline – has ... Read more

  • Study on Hydrodynamic Characteristics of the Raft-type Wave-Powered Desalination Device

    by Siming Zheng ...
    Series series Energy (R0)
    This thesis proposes a new raft-type wave-powered desalination device that can convert wave power into hydraulic energy and use reverse osmosis (RO) to directly desalinate seawater. Both analytical and numerical methods are used to study the hydrodynamic characteristics of the device. Further, the thesis investigates the maximum power extraction and multiple parameter effects on power absorption ... Read more
