Modular Construction Gains Ground
“Plug and play” is a term often applied to electronic devices, especially computers and video games.
The Evolution of Carbon Capture Technology Part 1
Free market forces are flexing their considerable muscle devising ways to capture carbon dioxide (CO2) from coal-fired power plants.
Measuring Unburned Carbon in Flyash with an Automated, On-line Monitor
Increasingly stringent NOX regulations have required plant operators to modify traditional combustion processes.
Prioritizing Power Plant Maintenance Work
Maintenance work in a power plant is prioritized to ensure that the right work is performed at the right time, resulting in the minimum impact to plant operation.
Corrections
The article “Repowering Can Wait” in the January issue of Power Engineering incorrectly reported the amount of wind capacity installed in the United States.
Two Graphs, One Story
Two graphs tell a basic truth about our energy choices. Both are based on data from the Energy Information Administration.
POWER-GEN International @ 20:A Look Back at Issues and Events from 1988
Twenty years ago on page 6 of the January 1988 edition of Power Engineering magazine, a full-age ad introduced “POWER-GEN ‘88” to the world.
Reducing Financial Riskfor New Technologies
A myriad of technologies exist that could, their eager backers insist, deliver low-cost, sustainable, environmentally neutral and universally applicable solutions to even the most vexing energy questions.
The “Other” Waste Disposal Issue
In the nuclear power industry, not all waste is created equal. High-level waste, including spent nuclear fuel, garners the most attention because of its long-term radiotoxicity.
The Art and Craft of Applying Thermal Barrier Coatings to Improve Life Expectancy
Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) protect turbine components from oxidation and corrosion and effectively provide greater durability and reliability to turbine engines.
EPA Mercury Rule Tossed Out by Court
A U.S. court ruled last month that the Environmental Protection Agency must reconsider a decision to allow coal-fired power plants to swap rights to emit toxic mercury.
Fuel Cells for Baseload Distributed Power Generation
The majority of electrical power is produced by centralized power stations—primarily natural gas-, oil- and coal-fired plants.
Products
The Anver BA1-RV Custom Vacuum Lifter for vessels features three articulated rubber suction pads which adapt to different diameters from 85” to 110” and can lift up to 4500 lbs.
Holding the Lions at Bay
With wind generation growing so fast, finding technicians to build wind farms is tough, said Jason Martinson, who is supervising work on the 56-turbine Smoky Hills Wind Farm in Kansas for Enel North America.
