Spending on investments in integrative information systems (IIS) has considerably risen during the last few years due to a high need for linking various information systems. The demand for integrating the systems stems from developments like mergers and acquisitions and is typically satisfied in...

A system integrating CHP (combined heating and power) subsystem based on natural gas and GSHP (ground-source heat pump subsystem) in series is proposed. By help of simulation software-Aspen Plus, the energy performance of a typical CHP&GSHP-S (S refers to ‘in series’) system was analyzed....

Polygeneration system for chemical and power co-production has been regarded as one of the promising technologies for fossil fuel sustainable utilization. In this paper, a new polygeneration system with carbon capture is integrated, based on coal gas and coke oven gas inputs for methanol and...

To balance the demand and supply at off-peak hours, nuclear power plants often have to be down-regulated particularly when the installations exceed the base load requirements. Part-load operations not only increase the electricity cost but also impose a detrimental effect on the safety and...
