Gas to Power Generation and Emission Management

At the end of this course, the students should be able to: 1. explain the basic testing methods for determining the distribution of particulate matter in air and gaseous emissions, combustion emissions for solid, liquid and gaseous fuel wastes; 2. highlight the basic thermodynamics of the steam cycle, gas turbine cycle, the cycles of Rankine and OHO engines; and 3. design cooling towers.

Basic thermodynamics, steam power cycles, gas turbine cycles and combined cycles, cooling towers and condensers, ideal engines cycles, refrigeration and heat pumps. Industrial air pollution monitoring particulate and gaseous emissions. Combustion and emission calculations for solid, liquid and gaseous fuels or wastes
