EARTHQUAKE OBSERVATION AT CAVITY OF UNDERGROUND POWER STATION

Maintenance Staff Scheduling at Afam Power Station

This paper describes the optimization of maintenance workforce scheduling at Afam power station in Nigeria. The objective is to determine the optimum schedule to satisfy growing maintenance labour requirements with minimum cost and highest efficiency. Three alternative maintenance workforce schedules are compared. The first alternative is to continue with the traditional five-day workweek sched...

Technical possibility assessment of creating wind power station at Soltanieh zone of Zanjan province

Due to increasing expansion of energy consumption and also the decrease and tendency towardsending fossil energy reserves, the current energy cycle needs to use alternative energy speciallywind energy, because it’s considerably cheaper than other recycling sources. The presentresearch investigates suitable possibility of exploiting wind energy to create wind power stationin Soltanieh zone of Za...

Power Consumption Minimization of Khormoj Compressor Station

Arguably, the natural gas transmission pipeline infrastructure in Iran represents one of the largest and most complex mechanical systems in the world. The optimization of large gas trunk lines known as IGAT results in reduced fuel consumption or higher capability and improves pipeline operation. In the current study, a single-objective optimization was conducted for Khormoj compressor station o...

Physicochemical Characterization of Airborne Particulate Matter at a Mainline Underground Railway Station

Underground railway stations are known to have elevated particulate matter (PM) loads compared to ambient air. As these particles are derived from metal-rich sources and transition metals may pose a risk to health by virtue of their ability to catalyze generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), their potential enrichment in underground environments is a source of concern. Compared to coarse (...
