Title:
METHOD FOR DETERMINATION OF CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS FROM STEAM GENERATION SYSTEMS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/141242
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for determining carbon emissions from a steam generation system (100) is disclosed. It includes measuring a first energy of feedwater entering into a steam generation system (100) and measuring a second energy of steam exiting the steam generation system (100). The first energy is subtracted from the second energy to determine a total energy absorbed by the steam generation system (100). The total energy absorbed by the steam generation system (100) is divided by the total energy to determine a heat input to the steam generation system (100). The heat input is used to determine the carbon emissions from the steam generation system (100).
