1. Thermodynamic properties of humid air and their application in advanced power generation cycles
Abstract : Water or steam is added into the working fluid (often air) in gas turbines to improve the performance of gas turbine cycles. A typical application is the humidified gas turbine that has the potential to give high efficiencies, high specific power output, low emissions and low specific investment. READ MORE

2. Emissions from realistic operation of residential wood pellets heating systems
Abstract : Emissions from residential combustion appliances vary significantly depending on the firing behaviours and combustion conditions, in addition to combustion technologies and fuel quality. Although wood pellet combustion in residential heating boilers is efficient, the combustion conditions during start-up and stop phases are not optimal and produce significantly high emissions such as carbon monoxide and hydrocarbon from incomplete combustion.

3. Oxy-Fuel Combustion - The Control of Nitrogen Oxides
Abstract : Oxy-fuel combustion is one of the main candidates for carbon dioxide capture from power plants. In oxy-fuel combustion, oxygen diluted with recycled flue gas oxidizes the fuel. The elimination of air-borne nitrogen generates a flue gas that mainly consists of carbon dioxide and water. READ MORE

4. Manganese Combined Oxides as Oxygen Carriers for Chemical-Looping Combustion
Abstract : The global emissions of greenhouse gases are increasing and the development of mitigation measures is becoming more important. One of the alternatives proposed is carbon capture and storage, where the carbon dioxide emitted from large point sources is captured, compressed and stored in underground storage sites. READ MORE

5. Possibilities and Challenges of Using Combined Manganese Oxides as Oxygen Carriers
Abstract : One alternative proposed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is carbon capture and storage, where the carbon dioxide emitted from large point sources is captured, compressed and stored in underground geological formations. Many of the largest point sources of carbon dioxide are power plants and industries fuelled by fossil fuels or biomass. READ MORE
