…the data-file, across our models of Air Separation, Cables, Comminution, Compressors, Electric Motors, Electrowinning, Fans, Flotation, Gas Dehydration, Harmonic Filters, Heat Exchangers, Inverters, Motor Drivers, Pumps, Rankine Engines, Tanks and…
…The data-file contains our estimates for the typical power consumption (in Watts) for 30 types of electronic devices, such as Air Conditioners, Ceiling fans, Chargers, Clothes Dryers, Coffee-machines, Computers, Dishwashers,…
…demand for air conditioning and cooling in general. The two-fold effect of increasing demand and lowering efficiencies can have a huge effect on grid effectiveness. We have modeled a simple…
…to be higher. For example, moderate pressures of about 60-bar are routinely used in gas pipelines, methanol plants and in the cryogenic turbine compressors feeding cryogenic air separation plants or…
…costs. A typical industrial compressor might be around 50kW, enough to boost about 2m3 per second of air to the same pressure as a car tire (calculations are given). This…
This data-file captures the economics of sulphur recovery from H2S via the Claus process, which is an important industrial process cleaning up sour gases from the oil and gas industry,…
…Eyjafjallajökull volcano, which disrupted global air travel, was assessed at VEI=4, emitting 0.3km3 of tephra, 8km into the atmosphere. The VEI=5 eruptions in this data-file emitted an average of 3km3…
This data-file captures the cost of producing cyanide — hydrogen cyanide as a chemical intermediate and sodium cyanide as a crucial input to the gold-silver mining industry. Marginal costs are…
…their differing hydrophobicity. The ores are crushed and ground, then slurried with water, then agitated in a tank, through which air bubbles are blown. More hydrophobic particles will adhere to…
…exercise is that it is quite inconvenient to have to cut, transport and dry your own fuel; then kindle a fire; then clean up the ashes and air out the…
