Hydrogen Combustion vs. Hydrogen Fuel Cell: Weighing the Options
April 17, 2024
Aviation is vital to how the modern world works. As such, it’s no surprise that aviation’s carbon footprint has grown faster in recent decades than rail, road, or shipping. For example, in 2019, domestic and international aviation accounted for around 8 percent of the UK’s CO2 equivalent emissions. According to Britain’s Aerospace Technology Institute (ATI), […]

Cogeneration Power Plants: Improving Operations in Complex Conditions
October 26, 2023
Much of the world’s natural gas power generation infrastructure uses gas turbines connected to Heat Recovery Steam Generators (HRSGs). These HRSGs capture waste heat from gas turbine exhaust and use the heat to generate steam for cogeneration, drive a steam turbine (in a combined cycle plant), or a combination of both. This process recovers most […]
