Assessment of Carbon Credits for Power Generation Systems at GSM Base Station Site
Abstract: Electricity production is often a source of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, for instance when fossil fuel is combusted in power plants. Therefore the root cause of pollution coming from telecommunication industry is the source of energy (diesel genset) the network operators used in running their base station sites. Energy consumption of using diesel to power base station by telecom networks is a contributor to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. This …

Synthesis and Characterization of Biofuel from Non-edible Seed Oil
Abstract: There are many medicinal application found in sapodilla fruit, bark leaves and seeds like inhibition of ehrlich ascites carcinoma, in vitro and in vivo antioxidant activity, free radical scavenging activity and antimicrobial activity. Biodiesel is a more attractive product from sapodilla seed oil to diesel engines, because of seeds are chiefly available and non-edible to all human being. Since most of the biodiesel were derived from edible oils like soybean, …

Energy, Exergy and Exergoeconomic Analysis of a Forced Draft Cooling Tower
Abstract: This paper presents the results of energy, exergy and exergoeconomic analysis for a forced draft cooling tower. The work was done using field data from an operating system spanning ten (10) years. The process was modelled mathematically and computer simulations were made using the MS Excel environment, specifically on the dependence of both the energetic efficiency on the inlet water temperature and the second law efficiency on the inlet water …
