PROVEN TECHNIQUES
FOR REDUCING ENERGY USE WITH CHP SYSTEMS
Plan, design, construct, and operate a
sustainable on-site CHP (combined heat and power) facility using the
detailed information in this practical guide.
Sustainable On-Site CHP Systems
reveals how to substantially increase the energy efficiency in
commercial, industrial, institutional, and residential buildings
using waste heat and thermal energy from power generation equipment
for cooling, heating, and humidity control.
In-depth case studies illustrate real-world
applications of CHP systems.
Coverage
includes:
- CHP basics, power equipment,
and thermal design
- Packaged CHP systems
- Regulatory issues
- Carbon footprint, environmental
benefits, and emission controls
- Conducting a feasibility study
and economic analysis
- CHP plant design and
engineering
- Construction, permits, and risk
management
- Operation and maintenance
- Performance monitoring and
improvement
