through risk assessment process, it is necessary to identify, analyze, and prioritize systematically all environmental impacts of industries which have high destructive potentiality as well as representation of a mitigation plan. the current study aims at identification and prioritization of risks and impacts caused by abadan gas power plant. all kinds of the operational risks of the power plan...

fossil fuel power plant is one of the most important sources of environmental pollution of the vanadium toxic metal. this survey showed that the penicilium austuranium is the best microorganism for biosorption of vanadium isolated from environment of fossil fuel power plant. to determine the optimum ph and most biosorption and accumulation of vanadium by these fungi, power plants wastewater, pa...

This paper proposes novel Fuel Cell Auxiliary Power Unit (FCAPU) for J150+ aircraft application. The primary version of APU in J150+ aircraft is a gas turbine Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) which is based on gas turbine jet engine but in the suggested FCAPU, the generated electrical power is achieved from chemical energy with higher efficiency. The Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) technology is used to...

in this study a pseudo comprehensive carbon footprint model for fossil fuel power plants is presented. parameters which their effects are considered in this study include: plant type, fuel type, fuel transmission type, internal consumption of the plant, degradation, site ambient condition, transmission and distribution losses. investigating internal consumption, degradation and site ambient con...

BACKGROUND Air pollution is known to cause respiratory disease. Unlike motor vehicle sources, fuel-fired power plants are stationary. OBJECTIVE Using hospitalization data, we examined whether living near a fuel-fired power plant increases the likelihood of hospitalization for respiratory disease. METHODS Rates of hospitalization for asthma, acute respiratory infection (ARI), and chronic obs...

this paper presents a control strategy for fuel cell/energy storage power generation system during voltage sag conditions. the hybrid dc power sources are connected to grid using power electronic converters include dc-dc converter and grid connected voltage source inverter. the power from hybrid power sources is controlled during voltage sag by designing of control strategy for dc-dc converter....

An electrochemical analysis on a single channel PEM fuel cell was carried out by Computational Fuel Cell Dynamics (CFCD). The objective was to assess the latest developments regarding the effects of change in the current collector materials, porosity of electrodes and gas diffusion layer on the fuel cell power density. Graphite, as the most applicable current collector material, was applied fol...

it is expected that residential units may replace   traditional heat and power production systems with cogeneration ones. among the different cogeneration systems, fuel cell based systems are a suitable choice due to their high efficiency, high power density, low emission and low noise. in this paper, a cogeneration system based on solid oxide fuel cells is examined. the system, including the f...

This paper presents modeling and control of a hybrid distributed energy sources including photovoltaic (PV), fuel cell (FC) and battery energy storage (BES) in a microgrid which provides both real and reactive power to support an unbalanced utility grid. The overall configuration of the microgrid including dynamic models for the PV, FC, BES and its power electronic interfacing are briefly descr...
