A fuel gas dehumidifier or gas drier is an ancillary system to a gas engine that is used to remove moisture from the fuel gas for the cogeneration system (dessication). The removal of water from the fuel gas helps to optimise the combustion process in the engine, prevents condensation and helps protect the engine from the ...

Through on-going investment in research and development GE's gas engines remain market leaders in the gas engine field. The engines are highly efficient at the conversion of the energy within gas into useful electrical power. In the event that there is a local use for heat, the alternative combined heat and power configuration may be a more useful engine ...

Abandoned mine methane (AMM) can be recovered from disused coal mines. Abandoned mine methane (AMM) projects produce energy (thermal and electrical) with the added bonus of reducing atmospheric emissions of methane. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas and huge amounts of methane will escape from the mine for years to come following closure. Sealed abandoned mines offer an excellent opportunity for ...

Syngas, also known as synthesis gas, synthetic gas or producer gas, can be produced from a variety of different materials that contain carbon. These can include biomass (wood gas), plastics, coal, municipal waste or similar materials. Historically town gas was used to provide a gas supply to many residences in Europe and other industrialised countries in the 20th Century. Gas engines utilising ...

Furnace gas is a gas which is produced in different types of furnace during the production of metals. High levels of power requirement and rising energy costs present a major challenge to the metallurgical industry. Some furnace gases created as a ‘free’ by-product during production processes serve as an attractive fuel for power generation. In addition to the economic benefit, using ...

Trigeneration or combined cooling, heat and power (CCHP), is the process by which some of the heat produced by a cogeneration plant is used to generate chilled water for air conditioning or refrigeration. An absorption chiller is linked to the combined heat and power (CHP) to provide this functionality. Quadgeneration takes this process one step further with the addition of systems to ...

Based on the proven design concepts of Type-3 and Type-6, the modern Type-4 engines in the 800-1,500kWe power range are characterised by a high power density and outstanding efficiency. The optimised control and monitoring provides easy preventative maintenance and maximum reliability and ...

Exhaust gas heat exchangers (EGHE) utilise waste heat from the exhaust of the GE's Jenbacher gas engine cogeneration plant. They are typically located adjacent to the engine or are mounted on the roof of a containerised combined heat and power unit. They are present in a wide range of different applications and along with the other systems can be used to achieve overall system efficiencies of ...

Combined heat and power (CHP) or cogeneration has significant potential in the brewery industry. Electricity and heat recovered from a gas engine can be deployed at high efficiency for useful onsite use. This gives the ability to reduce operational costs and reduce carbon emissions. Converting the heat into cooling via absorption chillers is called combined cooling heat and power (CCHP) or ...

Biomethane or renewable natural gas (RNG) is produced via biogas upgrading. It can also be used as a renewable fuel in gas engines. Clarke Energy can provide both biogas upgrading and biogas engine ...

A GE Jenbacher gas engine module is configured for the recovery of both electricity and heat via a cogeneration / CHP configuration. As with the genset, the gas engine is linked to the alternator which produces electrical power for export. The cooling water circuits of the engine are first linked to a plate heat exchanger which facilitates the transfer of hot water to an external hot water ...

Combined heat and power (CHP), or cogeneration, offers a range of potential benefits for residential applications. Cogeneration systems are successfully applied in a wide range of residential applications. Gas engine cogeneration systems can provide significant financial savings on fuel costs used to provide electricity and heat. In some countries the government provides tax benefits to the owner ...

Agricultural biogas plants utilise organic materials found on farms to generate biogas, a renewable fuel source and in turn renewable power through cogeneration / combined heat & power. The plant may be designed to accept energy crops that have been grown specifically to input into the digestion facility or agricultural wastes. These crops are typically ensilaged and stored in clamps or ...

The spent byproducts of distilleries have historically been treated as waste. However, the liquid and solid wastes of the distillation industry have greater potential and can be sent to anaerobic digesters and converted into biogas. This biogas in turn can be turned into renewable electricity at high efficiency via GE Jenbacher gas ...

Coal mine methane (CMM) is a type of gas present in active, working mine sites. This gas is extracted from the air in the coal mine helping improve safety and preventing uncontrolled release of methane to ...

The Jenbacher Type-2 gas engine was introduced in 1974 and is the engine with the longest development history of the range. The 208 has 8 inline cylinders and is available at electrical output from 249kWe or 335kWe. The J208 is renowned for its robust design and highest levels of component durability. It is particularly well suited to troublesome gases such as landfill ...

Using a combined heat and power (CHP) or cogeneration plant in a hospital is an ideal way of achieving improved energy efficiency and reduced carbon emissions. Its utilisation helps a hospital’s limited financial resources go further. Natural gas is a clean-burning low carbon emission fuel. A CHP plant facilitates the high efficiency use of this fuel, by recovering not only electricity but ...

Carbon Capture, Utilisation & Storage (CCUS) is the process of capturing CO2 from energy intensive processes before it enters atmosphere and finding a market use or transport to a storage facility (normally underground in geological caverns). Long-term storage of CO2 in a geological formation is still relatively new as a concept but will play a huge part in the net-zero efforts in the future. ...

The GE Jenbacher container is a high quality unit which can be deployed where economical and speedy installation is required. The GE Jenbacher containers are fully tested when they leave the production facility and are excellent for plug-and-play applications. The overall compact design ensures a space saving installation with service-orientated ...

Fuel gas boosters or blowers are used to raise the pressure of fuel gas to the operating level of the gas engine or combined heat and power plant. Gas boosters are often required for biological gas applications where the pressure level of the biogas holder is below ...
