  1. 16. Study of a valorisation process forbiomass industrial waste involvingacid cooking and enzymatichydrolysis

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Nicolas Brunet; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Lignocellulosic biomass has potential to chip in the chemical and biofuels supplies in future societies,even though lignocellulose is a recalcitrant structure that has to be treated in several steps. After theirproper life cycle, wood-derived materials such as particleboards have few outcomes today apart fromenergy recovery for heat production. READ MORE

  2. 17. Thermodynamic and Economic Evaluation of Hybridization Biomass-solar for a Cogeneration Power Plant in a Cuban Sugar Mill, George Washington

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Silja Lehtinen; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : This study evaluates the thermodynamic and economic performance of hybridization of biomass-solar for a cogeneration power plant in a Cuban sugar mill, George Washington. The evaluation is performed by varying the parameters of the thermal power block and considering scenarios with 1) bagasse and marabú, 2) bagasse and solar field, and 3) bagasse, marabú and solar field as heat sources for the cogeneration cycle.

  3. 18. Power Plant Operation Optimization Economic dispatch of combined cycle power plants

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : Stefano Rosso; [2019]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : As electricity production from renewable sources increases, higher flexibility is required by fossil fuel generation to cope with the inherent fluctuations of solar and wind power. This results in shorter operating cycles and steeper ramps for the turbines, and more uncertainty for the operators. READ MORE

  4. 19. Derivation of a correlation to determine a combined cycle's performance based on data from the gas turbine exhaust

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för energivetenskaper

    Author : Mattias Ingelström; [2019]
    Keywords : Combined Cycle efficiency; second law efficiency; HRSG; exergy; irreversibilities; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Power production has a vital role in the functioning of society and will have a major part in the future of environmental and economical sustainability. Therefore, efficiencies of power plants are always a subject to improvements in order to utilise resources as efficient as possible. READ MORE

  5. 20. Economic Dispatch of the Combined Cycle Power Plant Using Machine Learning

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)
