The creation of energy-saving turbogenerators is an essential component the development small energy systems. gradual growth interest in distributed electricity generation necessitates constant improvement these units. Moreover, they implement a more environmentally friendly method than when using microturbine units that use fuel to carry out work process. Nowadays, are created based on differe...

This study quantifies the effluents generated during processing in three industry types, estimates energy potential from quantified form of biogas generation, and determines economic viability recovered. Data were procured relevant scientific publications to quantify production processes types examined, using industrial process calculations. The effluent data are used 2-module recovery model es...

The HOMER Micropower Optimization Model is a computer model developed by the U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to assist in the design of micropower systems and to facilitate the comparison of power generation technologies across a wide range of applications. HOMER models a power system’s physical behavior and its life-cycle cost, which is the total cost of installing and operati...

Recent technology advances in foil air bearings, high temperature solid lubricants and computer based modeling has enabled the development of small Oil-Free gas turbines. These turbomachines are currently commercialized as small (<100 kW) microturbine generators and larger machines are being developed. Based upon these successes and the high potential payoffs offered by Oil-Free systems, NASA, ...
