Effects of the DOE proposals for new source performance standards for utility boilers firing anthracite coal (open access)

Effects of the DOE proposals for new source performance standards for utility boilers firing anthracite coal

Currently, the most important expansion market for anthracite is the electrical utilities/power generation area, where the major competitors are other forms of coal. However, anthracite is more expensive to mine than bituminous coal and requires more expensive boilers and other plant equipment. Advantages of anthracite include its geographic location and, most importantly, its low sulfur content and slightly higher heating value relative to bituminous coal. Because of these factors, anthracite is competitive with bituminous coal as a utility boiler fuel only under those NSPS scenarios that permit significantly lower SO/sub 2/ removal costs for an anthracite-fired plant. The cost of electricity under various NSPS scenarios was calculated for a hypothetical 600 Mw 0.7% S anthracite-fired power plant located at, and supplied by, an open-pit mine in eastern Pennsylvania. Calculated costs were compared with those of a comparable of 2% S bituminous-fired plant at the same location. Because of the lower sulfur content of anthracite, the DOE sliding scale alternative would permit significantly lower SO/sub 2/ removal costs for the anthracite plant. For the example case considered, the DOE sliding scale would have the effect of making anthracite competitive with bituminous coal as a utility boiler fuel (as would a flexible …

Industrial Fuel Gas Demonstration Plant Program. Monthly and quarterly progress report, September 1, 1978-September 30, 1978 (open access)

Industrial Fuel Gas Demonstration Plant Program. Monthly and quarterly progress report, September 1, 1978-September 30, 1978

Work during the July-September period was concentrated on the preparation of the Task I report. The Commercial Plant estimate was completed and reviewed by MLGW. A MRC review of the estimate was also conducted. A Plant Configuration study was completed and reviewed by MLGW for enclosure in the Demonstration Plant recommendations. The economic analysis was completed. A preliminary draft of the four volumes of the Task I report was provided to all Industrial Team members and MRC for comments, which were received by the week of September 25th.

Morgantown low-Btu gasifier simulation program (open access)

Morgantown low-Btu gasifier simulation program

This project's overall purpose is to develop a Morgantown low-Btu gasifier system simulation program. The gasifier system consists of a moving bed gasifier and a gas clean-up system, and the present report concerns steady-state simulation of the gasifier. Since the gasifier output controls the performance of the gas clean-up system, it is necessary to investigate the effects of steam/coal and oxygen/coal ratios and of feed temperature on the gasifier output. Simulation of the gasifier performance, therefore, was undertaken to gain quantitative understanding of these effects. This gasifier simulation program will be coupled with a gas clean-up system simulation program now under development. Simulation of the entire gasifier system will serve as a guideline in planning experiments to enable its optimum overall operation.

CEREN concept: a case study of the French industrial energy data system (open access)

CEREN concept: a case study of the French industrial energy data system

A case study of the French CEREN system is provided. The foundation of the system is outlined, that is, the concepts that ensure the systems comprehensiveness, detail, and manageability. The implementation of the system is emphasized, in particular, the data collection and data processing methodology. Applications of the CEREN energy information system are reviewed for analyzing energy use, cross-industry impacts, and social, and economic impacts of changing energy-use patterns. (MHR)

Analysis of energy and utility service demands (open access)

Analysis of energy and utility service demands

The collection, analysis, and review of existing data on a community's service requirements are documented. The research focused on the analysis of energy-using activities including both micro activities such as space heating, cooking, lighting, and transportation; and macro activities such as providing shelter, health care, education, etc. The technical report describes the analytical framework developed for community description; describes an indexing system by which a catalog of services can be accessed; illustrates the application of the data to an existing community; and provides ancillary information on data availability. A catalog of data is presented which includes several sets of indices which facilitate access of data using various keys. Abstracts of 48 data sources are analyzed. Each abstract includes a description and evaluation of the data, a sampling of that data, an assessment as to how that data may be applied to other analyses, and a reference where the user can secure additional data.
