The Off-Design Modelling of a Combined-Cycle Power Plant
… renewable energy has steered the focus of power plant operation towards flexibility and fast response which are more attainable through the use of combined-cycle power plants. These aspects are required to account for the fluctuation of the supply as well as the demand of power that is …

Carbon capture from gas-fired power plant and integration with energy storage and CO2 utilisation
The new and existing gas fired power plant requires urgent and stronger implementation of carbon capture integration to reduce CO2 emission. In this study, an integrated carbon capture system produced through calcium looping (CaL) process is proposed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, integrating …

New techniques for the analysis of flexible operation of gas turbine based systems
In the current European energy market, gas power plants are required to operate in cyclical modes to fill the gaps in renewable energy supply. Renewable sources have dispatch priority due to their relatively low variable operational costs. However, because of their high unpredictability, …

Waste to fuel: designing a cobalt based catalyst and process for once-through Fischer-Tropsch synthesis operated at high conversion
… at small scale in remote locations requires a plant design with lower capital requirements, a greater level of simplicity and utility self-sufficiency. A plant design using an air-fed biogas reformer (without an air separation unit) and a single pass Fischer-Tropsch configuration is proposed. A …
