In previous research, a cryogenic system based on Stirling coolers has been developed. In this work, the novel system was applied on CO2 capture from post-combustion flue gas and different process parameters (i.e. flow rate of feed gas, temperature of Stirling cooler and operating condition)...

In the existing coal-fired power plants, the energy penalty associated with CO2 capture process is an important challenge. For this reason, energy analysis has been widely used as a powerful tool to optimize the capture efficiency and reduce energy consumption. In our previous work, a Stirling...

A high-pressure fixed bed reactor was used to study the formation condition of K2CO3·1.5H2O and the significance of K2CO3·1.5H2O in reducing the regeneration energy required for potassium-based sorbents. The reaction heat of K2CO3 converted into KHCO3 in the following reaction:...

Jaggery is a non-traditional sweetener that is produced from boiling sugarcane juice. Due to the energy intensive nature of the combustion process in jaggery making, previous studies in literature have presented various process and equipment modifications to affect its energy efficiency. This...

Exergy analysis is a powerful tool for determining the efficiency of processes that influence system performance. Thus, the exergy of dual-stage NF (nanofiltration) seawater desalination was analyzed. Three different processes were simulated by Dow's Reverse Osmosis System Analysis, and the...
