Chevron Australia, as part of the Wheatstone Project, is constructing a two train liquefied natural gas (LNG) facility and domestic gas plant at the Ashburton North Strategic Industrial Area, 12 kilometres west of Onslow on the Pilbara coast of Western Australia. The initial two-train facility design capacity is 8.9 million tonnes per annum (MTPA). Eventually, the facility could expand to produ...

Today, the urgent task is synthesis of new nanostructured composite sorbents used for complete utilization various wastes oil and gas refineries, improving technology processes cleaning natural tail exhaust gases from acidic impurities, increasing stability physicochemical properties environmental conditions processing secondary absorbents refineries.

© The Ecological Society of America www.frontiersinecology.org N gas drilling has dramatically expanded with advances in extraction technology and the need for cleaner burning fuels that will help meet global energy demands. Natural gas is considered a “bridge fuel” to renewable energy resources because its combustion releases fewer contaminants (eg carbon dioxide [CO2], nitrogen oxide [NOx], s...

Concentrating Solar Power (CSP) technology is developing in order to achieve higher energy efficiency, reduced economic costs, and improved firmness and dispatchability in the generation of power on demand. To this purpose, a research project titled HYSOL has developed a new power plant, consisting of a combined cycle configuration with a 100 MWe steam turbine and an 80 MWe gas-fed turbine with...
