An Analysis Of The Energy Consumption And Environmental Impact On The Emissions Of Carbon Dioxide And Methane Of The Offshore Natural Gas Liquefaction Process In Facilities With Utilizing Dual Mixed Refrigerant (Dmr) Process Technology, Xinyue Yao Jan 2017

An Analysis Of The Energy Consumption And Environmental Impact On The Emissions Of Carbon Dioxide And Methane Of The Offshore Natural Gas Liquefaction Process In Facilities With Utilizing Dual Mixed Refrigerant (Dmr) Process Technology, Xinyue Yao

Theses, Dissertations and Capstones

The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the effects of the dual mixed refrigerant (DMR) process on energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in terms of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) in an offshore liquid natural gas (LNG) facility based on the reliable data from the Gulf of Mexico in the United States. After comparing energy consumption and GHG (carbon dioxide and methane) emissions for a number of liquefaction technologies: including mixed fluid cascade (MFC), dual mixed refrigerant (DMR), single mixed refrigerant (SMR), mixed refrigerant with propane precooling (C3MR), and the Conoco Phillips …


An Empirical Assessment Of Energy Management Information System Success Using Structural Equation Modeling, Gwendolyn D. Stripling Jan 2017

An Empirical Assessment Of Energy Management Information System Success Using Structural Equation Modeling, Gwendolyn D. Stripling

CCE Theses and Dissertations

The Energy Industry utilizes Energy Management Information Systems (EMIS) smart meters to monitor utility consumers’ energy consumption, communicate energy consumption information to consumers, and to collect a plethora of energy consumption data about consumer usage. The EMIS energy consumption information is typically presented to utility consumers via a smart meter web portal. The hope is that EMIS web portal use will aid utility consumers in managing their energy consumption by helping them make effective decisions regarding their energy usage. However, little research exists that evaluates the effectiveness or success of an EMIS smart meter web portal from a utility consumer …
