Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Emission in Thermal Power Plants using Fire Fly Optimization Technique
نویسنده
چکیده
Global Warming is the greatest challenge that the world is facing today. It is very important to take preventive measures before this problem poses a serious threat to the mankind. Power Plants play a major role in green house gas emissions. Nearly 21.3% of green house gases are emitted by these power plants alone. In this paper we try to propose a computational approach to reduce these carbon dioxide emissions by using Fire Fly Optimization Technique. The proposed optimization technique is better than other conventional optimization techniques in terms of computational time and number of iterations. It also shows that the method is practically applicable in real time. The technique was applied to a three generator and six generator systems for different load demands for validation. To check the quality of the solution the results are being compared with the conventional optimization algorithms.

Reduction of Carbon Dioxide Emission in Thermal Power Plants by Using Particle Swarm Optimization Technique
Climate change as the greatest environmental challenge facing the world today. Power stations play a major role in greenhouse gas emissions. Nearly 21.3% of green house gases are emitted by power plants alone. The main sources of greenhouse gases are due to burning of fossil fuels and deforestation leading to higher carbon dioxide concentrations. Normally CO2 in the atmosphere is removed by mix...

متن کاملEffect of carbon black and fly ash co-fillers content on mechanical and thermal behaviors of styrene butadiene rubber compounds
Fly ash (FA) is produced as a waste byproduct during the burning process of coal in thermal power plants whose cost is primarily associated to cleaning and transportation. It possesses mechanical properties on account of its constituents like silica and alumina. The use of FA as filler in styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) was of researchers’ interest to reinforce and/or to reduce product cost. In ...
