The (14)C method is a very reliable and sensitive method for industrial plants, emission authorities and emission inventories to verify data estimations of biogenic fractions of CO(2) emissions. The applicability of the method is shown for flue gas CO(2) samples that have been sampled in 1-h intervals at a coal- and wood-fired power plant and a waste incineration plant. Biogenic flue gas CO(2) ...

The Community Multi-scale Air Quality modeling system is used to investigate the response of atmospheric visibility to the emission reduction from different sectors (i.e. industries, traffic and power plants) in the Yangtze River Delta, China. Visibility improvement from exclusive reduction of NOx or VOC emission was most inefficient. Sulfate and organic aerosol would rebound if NOx emission wa...

population growth, industrial pollution and high-energy consumption, cause the release of significant amounts of pollutants in the environment. power plants play an important role in the release of pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and carbon dioxide. if the necessary measures in the field of prevention and control do not be implemented, human health and other living creatures...

this study investigated different concepts for natural-gas-fired power plants with the co2capture, and compared them based on the net plant efficiency and emission of co2. the cycles were based ona six oxy-fuel, one post-combustion and two pre-combustion capture concept. this paper presented theresults of an environmental evaluation performed by the application of the life cycle analysis (lca) ...

The present article is dedicated for evaluating the power generation sub-sector in terms of energetic and exergetic aspects. In this regard, energy and exergy utilization efficiencies during the period 1989-2006 are assessed based on real data obtained from main generators in Jordan. Sectoral energy and exergy analyses are conducted to study the variations of energy and exergy efficiencies for ...

Mobile differential optical absorption spectroscopy (mobile DOAS) is an optical remote sensing method that can rapidly measure trace gas emission flux from air pollution sources (such as power plants, industrial areas, and cities) in real time. Generally, mobile DOAS is influenced by wind, drive velocity, and other factors, especially in the usage of wind field when the emission flux in a mobil...
