摘要 :
1. Process Integration for Combined Heat and Power System
2. Publication - Perspective from Journal Editor
*The first talk is scheduled for 14:00-15:00. The second talk, which is an additional experience sharing, will start after a short break of 10 minutes.
Talk 1
Combined heat and power, (CHP) or commonly known as cogeneration, is a good option to improve industrial energy efficiency. CHP is operated to produce heat and electrical energy from a single fuel source, through gas turbine, steam turbine or a combination of both. A cogeneration system can provide energy utilisation efficiency of 50-70% which is higher than single-generation facilities such as boilers. Moreover, CHP system can be designed to provide steam at different header levels of quality. Besides, the production of electricity through own cogeneration system can reduce reliance on power grid. In this talk, various process integration methods developed for CHP optimisation will be shared.
Talk 2
Rather than being considered as an activity separate from research itself, writing a good paper provides a framework for developing the rationale of meaningful scientific inquiry. It is an inherent part of research, through which the researcher is able to locate his/her work in the broader context of the literature, identify a goal or hypothesis, develop and describe the necessary methodology, and finally interpret findings in coherent manner. Thus, a good journal article is a reflection of the researchers thought processes. In this talk, some common practices in journal editorial will be shared, based on speaker's experiences serving as Chief Editor, Subject Editor and Guest Editors in various international journals.
