Economic Analysis for Rebuilding of an Aged Pulverized Coal-Fired Boiler with a New Boiler in an Aged Thermal Power Plant

Advances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
Fossil-fired thermal power plants (TPP) produce a significant part of electricity in the world. Because of the aging TPPs and so their equipment (especially boiler), thermal power plants also produce less power than their installed capacities, and there ...

Design and Optimization of a Double‐Column Vapor Recompression Heat Pump Distillation Process via NSGA‐II for Separating Ternary Wide‐Boiling Mixtures

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study proposes a novel double‐column vapor recompression heat pump (DCVRHP) distillation process for separating ternary wide‐boiling‐range mixtures under two different vapor conditions: n‐hexane/n‐heptane/n‐octane using low pressure steam and n‐hexanol/n‐octanol/n‐decanol using high pressure steam.

Exploring Influence of MgO/Na2O on Melting Characteristics and Viscosity–Temperature Characteristics of Coal Slags Under Entrained Flow Gasification Condition

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Characteristics of high alkali in Zhundong coal ash may cause ash‐related slag discharge problems at entrained‐flow‐bed (EFB) gasifier. In this study, through exploring melting characteristics and viscosity–temperature characteristics, it is found that MN05, MN14, and MN23 show low FTs (< 1160°C).

Phantom citations: An empirical study of non‐existent and unverifiable references in scholarly literature

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract The integrity of scholarly communication depends critically on the accuracy and verifiability of cited references. Citations enable readers to trace prior work, assess evidence, and situate new contributions within the existing literature. However, concerns have emerged regarding the presence of references in published papers that cannot be ...

What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.
