Implementing an optimisation model for turbine investment selection under fluctuating steam productions

Venter, P.V.Z.; Terblanche, S.E.; Van Eldik, M. (IEEE, 2016)

Engineering plants typically have a variety of interlinked production chains, where process flows are dependent on upstream or downstream events. Raw material feeds may fluctuate over time, resulting in fluctuating off-gas ...
Potential in utilising furnace off-gas at a ferrochrome smelter with gas engines

Murray, R.; De Kock, J.A. (IEEE, 2015)

In South Africa the current electrical energy crises and the possibility of carbon tax forces ferrochrome smelters to improve the efficiency of the plant and also reduce the carbon emissions at the same time. This can be ...
Utilising fluctuating off-gases more efficiently in a power co-generation environment through less flaring

Venter, P.V.Z.; Terblanche, S.E.; Van Eldik, M. (IEEE, 2016)

Common engineering practice is to generate steam from burnable off-gases, in boiler houses, where excess steam is allocated for power generation after plant requirements are met. If the quantities or chemical composition ...
