DUAL-CYCLE SYSTEM FOR COMBINED-CYCLE POWER PLANT
A gas turbine combined-cycle power plant comprising a gas turbine engine comprising a compressor for generating compressed air, a combustor that can receive a fuel and the compressed air to produce combustion gas and a turbine for receiving the combustion gas and generating exhaust gas; a heat recovery steam generator for generating steam from water utilizing heat from the exhaust gas; a steam turbine for producing power from the steam generated by the heat recovery steam generator; a fuel regasification and expansion system in fluid communication with and disposed downstream of the fuel regasification and expansion system for producing power from gasified fuel; and a fuel expansion turbine in fluid communication with and disposed downstream of the fuel regasification and expansion system for producing power from gasified fuel. In examples, the power plant can include an Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) using heat input from the heat recovery steam generator. The ORC can utilize a recupertor to redistribute heat within the ORC.
VACUUM EVAPORATIVE HEAT EXCHANGER
Techniques are described herein for using a high-pressure reactor to separate clean water from dirty water without filtration and to extract and concentrate contaminants from dirty water for use as a fuel. In particular, techniques and systems are described for separating water from hydrocarbon contaminates, other BTU-laden compounds, and dissolved minerals, while also boiling water and condensing the resulting steam into distilled water. In addition, system in which the described techniques are performed can be used as a high-pressure pump for moving the separated hydrocarbon contaminates forward into other processes, such as a high-pressure reactor or incinerator.
COMBINED POWER GENERATION SYSTEM AND OPERATING METHOD THEREOF
A combined power generation system is provided. The combined power generation system includes a gas turbine configured to combust fuel to generate a rotational force, a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) configured to heat feedwater using combustion gas discharged from the gas turbine and include a high-pressure section, a medium-pressure section, and a low-pressure section with different pressure levels, a fuel preheater configured to heat the fuel supplied to the gas turbine and include a primary heating part and a secondary heating part, and a high-pressure feedwater supply pipe connected to the high-pressure section to supply high-pressure feedwater to the secondary heating part.
