Steven G. Liescheidt, P.E., CSI-CCS, CCPR.

Overview

The nation’s power system is facing a diverse and broad set of challenges. These range from restructuring and increased competitiveness in power production to the need for additional production and distribution capacity to meet demand growth, and demands for increased quality and reliability of power and power supply.   Although these challenges may create uncertainty within the financial and electricity supply markets, they also offer the potential to explore new opportunities to support the accelerated deployment of cleaner and cost-effective technologies to meet such challenges.

 

In this course the student will learn about a "new" generation of clean recycled energy supply technologies, including Back-Pressure Power Recovery, Natural Gas Pressure Recovery Turbines, flare gas recovery, and VOC control.

 

The student is expected to read and review the material contained in Clean Energy Technologies A Preliminary Inventory of the Potential for Electricity Generation – Publication No. LBNL-57451 - April 2005.

The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of fifteen (15) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
