Thermal Integration of Advanced Nuclear Reactors with a Reference Refinery, Methanol Synthesis, and a Wood Pulp Plant
Though most decarbonization efforts have focused solely on electricity generation, electric power only accounts for 25% of the total U.S. greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In 2021, the industrial sector was the third largest source of direct U.S. GHG emissions (at 23%), just behind the transportation sector (at 28%). If electric power emissions are categorized by […]
Technoeconomic Analysis of Kraft Pulp Mill Integration with an Advanced Nuclear Reactor
This study focuses on post-combustion capture and oxy-fuel combustion for the boilers at the mill, as well as steam integration with the nuclear power plant. The primary goal of the research outlined in this report is to design, analyze, and document the integration of industrial-scale HTGR with a reference Kraft Pulp Mill. The purpose is […]
