Controlling acid deposition by seasonal gas substitution in coal- and oil-fired power plants
(MIT Energy Lab, 1986)Acid deposition, primarily the result of sulfur emissions due to fossil fuel combustion, is a serious environmental problem. Resolving the problem will impose costs measuring in the billions of dollars. Based on evidence ... -
Extending the life of nuclear power plants : technical and institutional issues
(MIT Energy Lab, 1986)Managing nuclear power plant aging is one of the important technical issues which needs to be addressed by utilities in order to extend the operating life of some of the early LWR power stations. Plant managers must ... -
Impacts of new energy technology using generalized input-output analysis
(MIT Energy Lab, 1973)Traditional input-output analysis was modified to include air pollution emissions, employment, and other accessory variables. Engineering studies of high and low DTU coal gasification and the gas turbine topping cycle ...
