A model for steam gasification of biomass was developed by applying thermodynamic equilibrium calculations. With this model, the simulation of a decentralized combined heat and power station based on a dual fluidized-bed steam gasifier was carried out. Fuel composition (ultimate analysis and moisture content) and the operating parameters, temperature and amount of gasification agent, were varie...

nowadays, energy plays an important role in the economic and community development of country. consequently, performance analysis of energy systems is one of the effective methods being used to prevent waste of energy resources. among the different power generation technologies, steam power plants make a significant contribution to power generation in iran, with a share of 47 % of electricity g...

This paper describes the application of an adaptive predictive expert (ADEX) control solution to the attemperation process for superheated steam temperature control in the ScottishPower coal-fired power station at Cockenzie near Edinburgh in Scotland. The project comprised two phases, the first of which was a trial to establish the feasibility and potential benefits of ADEX compared with the ex...

This demonstration project was intended to repower an existing plant facility, the Lakeside Station in Springfield, Illinois. A single Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) process train was planned to generate a net output of 60 megawatts. The plant consists of a combined cycle (gas turbine, heat recovery steam generator, steam turbine) power train located in the existing buildings and...
