In the novel system, the utilization of the exhaust steam was combined with the heating process for air and condensate water, largely recovering the waste heat and leading to an improvement in the performance of the CHP unit.
"The utilization of steam and electricity, the introduction of improved processes and labor-saving machinery, the greater subdivision and grander scale of production, the wonderful facilitation of exchanges, have multiplied enormously the effectiveness of labor".
The main advantages of DSD were the operation of the regeneration column at atmospheric pressure, the utilization of low-pressure steam, and the low energy requirements of preheating.
Of the variables studied, it is observed that variability in the air utilization, fuel utilization and the steam to carbon ratio have the greatest impact on system performance.
A higher number of heating exchangers reduces the exergy destruction of the heat transfer, increases the utilization of steam in the steam turbine and reduces the throttling losses of the control flap.
A strategy for processing unconventional oil that involves the utilization of steam (catalytic) cracking process, in a FCC-type configuration, and enhanced cracking catalyst with high hydrothermal stability is also analyzed.
As an effective method for comprehensive utilization of lignin, steam explosion coupled with base catalysis (SEBC) pretreatment was applied into lignin depolymerization in this paper.
This study investigated the utilization of available excess steam by the Kamojang geothermal power plant, which, owing to the vapor-domination of the steam, utilizes a dry steam cycle.
Thus, effective utilization of steam through homogeneous distribution along the horizontal well is very important to minimize the environmental impact of SAGD and maximize the oil production from SAGD.
Regarding the second challenge, also at low anode hydrogen utilizations, the steam generator is in danger of overheating beyond its maximum rated operating point.
