A large-scale onshore turbine used in utilities to produce electricity and desalinated water, and turbine fuel for large-scale automotive engines and turbines in marine and remote applications where only liquid fuel is available. With it, there is less corrosion, regeneration and emissions (NOx, SOx, CO 2 and hazardous metals) than when burning contaminated heavy crude oil, refinery resid or high sulfur fuel oil. It is produced by decontaminating crude oil, non-conventional crude oil, and other highly contaminated feedstocks. Each fuel is produced as a single product of a unit operation, rather than as an off-site blend of various refinery products, using equipment structures that are less complex than conventional crude oil refining. The fuel may be combusted by advanced high-efficiency turbine systems in combined cycle power plants with hot flow paths and heat recovery steam generation systems that are sensitive to corrosion and cannot risk contamination of heavy crude or refinery resid feeds. have. |
