Abstract The paper presents several aspects regarding the optimization of the operation for a mixed cycle gas turbine, Titan 130S type, installed at S.C. CET S.A. Bacau, during the warm season. The optimization entails the partial loads operation and has been done using the multicriterial analysis, taking into consideration the operation restrictions required for this type of gas turbine. The criteria that regard this analysis are: thermal energy requirements, the global efficiency...

Abstract Anaerobic digestion was analyzed as the biological process that converts the organic matter present in various types of wastes, activated sludge from the wastewater treatment facilities respectively, into biogas. Latest advancements in the mathematical modeling, simulation and control practices have helped in gaining a better insight of the process. In this paper, an energy efficiency and techno-economical investigation of anaerobic digestion technology for the CHP cogeneration unit...

The need for ensuring safety of energy supply, as well as the tendency to reduce greenhouse gas emissions has led to greater use of energy efficient technologies and renewable energy sources. Cogeneration (combined production of heat and electricity) is one of high-efficiency technologies, because the losses of primary energy are less than losses from the separate generation of heat and power. Consequently, in 27 EU member-states 70% of the district heating is based on cogeneration plants. Us...

Availability of alternate fuels for cogeneration helps to limit the amount of bagasse as fuel at sugar plants and make them available for other uses such as paper manufacture or ethanol production. Due to the increased awareness on the adverse effects of carbon dioxide emission on the environment, power plant operators are compelled to reduce emissions of pollutants during cogeneration. Selection of low pollutant fuels, tapping of renewable energy and use of efficient operating policies can help...

Day by day, energy resources are diminishing and the concentration of GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions are increasing in the world. So, analysis and waste utilization of industries has a great concern for the society. Sugar mill plays an important role in the context of Indian market. Sugar industry mainly consist of three plants i.e., sugar mill, cogeneration plant and distillery unit. These units i.e. cogeneration and distillery are basic industries for power and chemical sectors which is hav...

The goal 12 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development takes into consideration the responsible consumption and production in the perspective of circular economy. The agri-food sector is more actively involved in these initiatives, because it offers the possibility to exploit waste and by-products, by adopting suitable biotechnologies. Such processes can be carried out either under aerobic conditions, for the production of compost, or anaerobically, for the production of biogas. In this work...

Biomethane is incentivized in Italy and in many other European countries as a substitute fuel for transport, in order to reduce fossil fuel and cut CO2 emissions. In Italy, Certificato di Immissione in Consumo (CIC) is actually sustaining biomethane production, charging petrochemical companies who need to cover their obligation quotes. Actually, biomethane production has to fulfil sustainability requirements in order to be entitled to get CIC. Sustainability principles are, among others, the typ...
