Fuel Gas From Wood Waste, V. K. Mathur, R. A. Caughey
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Design, construction and operation of a new type of gasifier for the production of fuel gas from wood waste (sawdust, chips, bark, etc.) are discussed. Data obtained from pilot plants are presented. The gasifier is inexpensive, easy to operate and has about 95% efficiency.

Banquet Speaker: Energy -- What We Must Do, Peter Van Nort
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
You have heard for the last two days and will hear tomorrow relative to energy what people are planning, what is being researched, what is proposed, what is possible, what is being tested, etc. I would like to tell you what each of us must do relative to energy. I hope you will excuse me for being presumptuous….
The message might better be called a plea -- a plea from one person committed to the great- ness of this country and more importantly, committed to its survival in its present form….
We are in a crisis….Never before have we run …
Heat Recovery System For Glass Melting Furnace, Milton J. Murry
Heat Recovery System For Glass Melting Furnace, Milton J. Murry
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
The installation and operating of a 100 ton per day glass melting furnace by Flat River Glass Company to make specialty bottles provided an excellent opportunity for recovery of waste heat. The furnace operates at 2300°F, and four feeders to bottle making machines operate at 2100“F. The 120,000 s.f. packaging area is next to the furnace bay, and it is heated solely by reclaimed heat from the melting furnace bay.
There are two systems that are used to transfer this waste heat from the furnace area to the packaging area. The first of these systems is a water loop. Water …
An Analysis Of Solar Heating Costs In Arkansas Broiler Houses, Ralph Gunderson, J. Martin Redfern
An Analysis Of Solar Heating Costs In Arkansas Broiler Houses, Ralph Gunderson, J. Martin Redfern
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
This study is based on the computer simulation model of a solar heated broiler house in four locations in Arkansas. This simulation model estimated the annual energy savings in each broiler house due to the installation of a solar heating system. This paper uses present value analysis to estimate the life cycle costs of heating conventional and solar heated broiler houses in the state of Arkansas. From these calculations, the number of years required to achieve a break-even cost of heating is estimated.
The Development Of Coal-Based Emulsions And Their Potential Impact On The National Economy, Murphy I. Song
The Development Of Coal-Based Emulsions And Their Potential Impact On The National Economy, Murphy I. Song
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
The proposed national energy policy emphasizes the use of coal replacing oil and gas. Coal-oil mixture (COM) can be produced using techniques developed in recent years to replace oil and gas. Large existing utility and industrial boilers could be converted to bum COM by retrofitting the boilers. In addition, the COM provides definite financial advantages to the owners of large utility and industrial boilers. The use of COM impacts on the national economy through new investment for retrofitting utility and industrial boilers, through reduced importation of residual oil, and through increased demand for coal.
Usable Energy Resources Expand Under The Economic Pressures Of Fuel Scarcity, Raphael Shen
Usable Energy Resources Expand Under The Economic Pressures Of Fuel Scarcity, Raphael Shen
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Until mankind finds properties in materials that are useful and usable under given economic conditions, these materials are not resources. In the past, many of them became usable as the ones they replaced became scarce and expensive. Market induced R & D toward profit seeking and cost minimization hastens to incorporate currently unused materials into the productive processes. With the increase in oil and natural gas prices, hitherto untapped energy sources present themselves as attractive alternatives. There will be no permanent shortage of energy resources, and the current energy crisis will be a page of past history in the foreseeable …
The Cost Of Crop Residues As An Auxiliary Fuel Source For Coal-Fired Power Plants, Cameron Short, Burton C. English, Steve K. Johnson, Earl O. Heady
The Cost Of Crop Residues As An Auxiliary Fuel Source For Coal-Fired Power Plants, Cameron Short, Burton C. English, Steve K. Johnson, Earl O. Heady
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Estimates are made of the costs of crop residues as an auxilary fuel to existing coal-fired power plants. Costs of crop residues include costs for foregone agronomic benefits of incorporating crop residues, and costs for harvesting transporting processing and boiler modifications. A range of cost estimates is given depending on annual demand.

Innovations In Heat Pumps, Ronald Hunter Howell, Harry J. Sauer Jr.
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
The status of the residential heat pump industry is reviewed. Some potential improvements in energy efficiency, operational reliability, and initial cost are described and delineated. These possible innovations include two-speed or variable speed compressors, reliable defrost initiation and termination, improved system components, modifications to the basic thermodynamic cycle, add-on-heat pumps, solar assisted heat pumps, annual cycle energy system, chemical heat pumps, and gas fired heat pumps.
Comparison Of Stirred And Immobilized Cell Reactors For Ethanol Production, Oliver C. Sitton, J. L. Gaddy
Comparison Of Stirred And Immobilized Cell Reactors For Ethanol Production, Oliver C. Sitton, J. L. Gaddy
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Biomass can be converted to sugars by hydrolysis with enzymes or mineral acids. These sugars can be converted into a number of chemical intermediates in biological reactors. Biological reactions are generally slow and selection of the most efficient reactor is important in these applications.
Immobilized cell reactors allow high cell densities and high throughput by attaching microorganisms to a fixed support. This paper compares the rate of production of ethanol from glucose by Saccharomyces Cerevisiae in a packed column and a stirred reactor.
Continuous stirred reactor studies showed a washout rate of .27 hr-1. The optimum rate of …

Energy - Minerals - Environment: How Now Brown Cow?, Bobby G. Wixson
Energy - Minerals - Environment: How Now Brown Cow?, Bobby G. Wixson
UMR-MEC Conference on Energy / UMR-DNR Conference on Energy
Energy, technical, social, political, economic, and environmental problems are all people related problems which will continue to increase along with the world's population. With the growing demands for more energy and minerals along with the constraints of protecting the environment, new approaches must be considered to these complex problems.
Energy sources, modifications, alternatives, and new developments must be considered for the present as short term resources (next 25- 30 years) and in the future as long range research necessary to develop and implement new technology (25 years on). Major energy sources and their environmental considerations are generally classified as:
