The presence of unburned fuel in a power plant’s ash indicates an inefficient combustion process, as some of the energy in the fuel is being wasted. Unburned fuel also poses a risk to safety; if ...

Combustion in boilers and furnaces remains a pivotal area of research, central to optimising energy efficiency and minimising pollutant emissions in industrial and power generation applications.

Tests of a boiler combustion tuning system employing artificial intelligence (AI) at a Taiwanese coal-fired power unit verify improvements to fuel economy that could ultimately reduce costs by up to ...

A condensing boiler, on the combustion side, will use either oil, natural gas, propane, or a mixture of gases and will combine the fuel with an oxidizer to produce a chemical, exothermic reaction.

Combustion equipment safety is essential for the daily operation of facilities and safety of plant personnel. Safety protocols and mechanisms in industrial plants have improved drastically in the last ...

It is estimated that more than 37 percent of the energy used in the U.S., excluding the generation of electricity, is for industrial applications. Further, about 50 percent of all large industrial ...

Oil/gas refinery and other process engineers will find the MT100 Series Multipoint Mass Flow Meter from Fluid Components International (FCI) provides the accurate air/gas flow measurements needed to ...

Industrial plants need steam for heating and other processes. Boilers are commonly used to provide this steam, and you may be called on to operate the boilers in your plant. The first step toward the ...

11 February 2005 – The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy (EERE) is seeking applications for cost-shared research and development of technologies that ...
