Materials from Interviews with Dry Cooling System Operators Calpine September 18, 2000. (Monday, 2:30 PM) Kim Stucki Calpine 620 Coolidge Drive Folsom, CA 916-608-3839 General: Topics for discussion • What are the factors which influence the choice of cooling system for your power projects? • Assume: Gas-fired, combined cycle (~ 500MWe) power plant at an inland California location. Capital cost comparisons:---Cost of system from turbine flange to ultimate discharge---- • How is the comparison done? • Is there a systematic optimization to select the design points for comparison? • If so, how are the “penalty” costs evaluated • capacity shortfall on hottest periods • efficiency penalties during rest of year • lost revenues or contractual penalties for capacity replacement (or failure to deliver) • If no optimization, how are comparative design points selected? • Average temperature over year? • Design back-pressure at 1 or 2 1⁄2% exceeded dry bulb (wet-bulb)? Approaches to mitigating hot day penalties: • What is the effect of ambient dry bulb on plant output and efficiency? • On gas turbines • On steam side • Use • Any experience • Cost/reliability • Efficiency penalties during rest of year of high back-pressure turbines • Use • On gas turbines • On air cooled condensers • Other wet/dry systems • Indirect dry cooling • Heller system Other considerations: • Licensing issues • Reduced licensing time (what is it worth to get on-line “six months sooner”.

Infinity Supercritical CO2 10 Liter Extractor Design and Worldwide Rights: The Infinity Supercritical 10L CO2 extractor is for botanical oil extraction, which is rich in terpenes and can produce shelf ready full spectrum oil. With over 5 years of development, this industry leader mature extractor machine has been sold since 2015 and is part of many profitable businesses. The process can also be used for electrowinning, e-waste recycling, and lithium battery recycling, gold mining electronic wastes, precious metals. CO2 can also be used in a reverse fuel cell with nafion to make a gas-to-liquids fuel, such as methanol, ethanol and butanol or ethylene. Supercritical CO2 has also been used for treating nafion to make it more effective catalyst. This NFT is for the purchase of worldwide rights which includes the design. More Info
