Design and Performance Analysis of a Thermal Energy Storage System With Steam Extraction and Electric Heating in a Coal‐Fired Power Plant

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To alleviate the impact of the instability of renewable energy power generation on the power grid, coal‐fired power plants (CFPPs) have to undertake peak shaving tasks, which puts forward high requirements for the flexibility of CFPPs. To enhance the flexibility of CFPPs to consume more renewable energy, this paper innovatively proposes a ...

Experimental Investigation of Microbubble Evolution in the Liquivac Multiphase Flow Pump

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper aims to experimentally investigate the mechanisms of microbubble characteristics evolution within an axial pump. The findings will aid in assessing the pump performance by identifying the range of bubble sizes and comparing them with the threshold size (< 300 μm). This study also provides evidence supporting the use of such pumps as

Techno‐economic and environmental assessment of a hybrid renewable energy system for a date molasses factory in Iraq using HOMER Pro

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Iraq currently faces a significant electricity deficit estimated at approximately 18 000 MW, resulting in frequent and sometimes prolonged power outages that disrupt both economic activities and social life. The widening gap between energy supply and demand, combined with environmental concerns associated with fossil fuel consumption ...
