Description for Waste-to-Energy: Advanced Cycles and New Design Concepts for Efficient Power Plants
Hardback. Waste to Energy Num Pages: 143 pages, 12 black & white illustrations, 77 colour illustrations, 21 black & white tables, biograp. BIC Classification: RNH; THFS; THX. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 248 x 164 x 15. Weight in Grams: 400.
This book provides an overview of state-of-the-art technologies for energy conversion from waste, as well as a much-needed guide to new and advanced strategies to increase Waste-to-Energy (WTE) plant efficiency. Beginning with an overview of municipal solid waste production and disposal, basic concepts related to Waste-To-Energy conversion processes are described, highlighting the most relevant aspects impacting the thermodynamic efficiency of WTE power plants. The pervasive influences of main steam cycle parameters and plant configurations on WTE efficiency are detailed and quantified. Advanced hybrid technology applications, particularly the Hybrid Combined Cycle concept, are examined in detail, including an illuminating compare-and-contrast study ... Read more
