Experimental and Analytical Study of Nitric Oxide Formation During Combustion of Propane in a Jet-Stirred Combustor
NASA Technical Paper 1181 I 1 Experimental and Analytical Study of Nitric Oxide Formation During / Combustion of Propane in a Jet-Stirred Combustor , ' N. T. Wakelyn, Casimir J. Jachimowski, and Charles H. Wilson , TECH LIBRARY KAFB, NM 0134538 NASA Technical Paper 1181 Experimental and Analytical Study of Nitric Oxide Formation During Combustion of Propane in a Jet-Stirred Combustor N. T. Wakelyn, Casimir J. Jachimowski, and Charles H. Wilson Langley Research Center Hampton, Virginia National Aeronautics and Space Administration Scientific and Technical Information Otfice 1978 '8' SUMMARY A jet-stirred combustor, constructed of castable zirconia and with an inconel injector, has been used to study nitric oxide formation in propane-air combustion with residence times in the range from 3.2 to 3.3 msec and equiva lence ratios varying from 0.7 to 1.4. The residence time range was character istic of that found in the primary zones of aircraft turbines. Premixed propane-air formulations were subjected to intense and turbulent backmixed combustion within the cavity formed between the injector and the hemispherical inner walls of the zirconia shell. The volume of the combustor cavity was 12.7 cm3 and the mass loading was maintained in the range from 0.053 to 0.055 g/cm3-sec. Measurements were made of combustor operating tem perature and of nitric oxide concentration. Maximum nitric oxide concentrations of the order of 55 ppm were found in the range of equivalence ratio from 1.0 to 1.1. Nitric oxide concentrations were predicted over the range of equivalence ratio by a computer program which employs a perfectly stirred'reactor (PSR) algorithm with finite-rate kinetics. -
Alternatives to High Propane Prices Interest Expense and the Cost of Utilities Are the Two Largest “Out of Pocket” Expenses Facing Most Broiler Growers
ThePoultry Engineering, Economics & Management NEWSLETTER Critical Information for Improved Bird Performance Through Better House and Ventilation System Design, Operation and Management Auburn University, in cooperation with the U.S. Poultry & Egg Association Issue No 29, May 2004 Alternatives to High Propane Prices Interest expense and the cost of utilities are the two largest “out of pocket” expenses facing most broiler growers. There is little a grower can do to reduce interest costs, short of major mortgage refinancing. However, costs associated with utilities are another matter. The topics we have addressed in most past issues of this newsletter have all dealt with housing and ventilation factors which can result in improved flock performance and in reduced levels of energy being used, which directly reduces costs to the grower. Electricity rates are typically fixed and are highly regulated. However, the price of heating fuel, specifically propane (liquefied petroleum gas or LPG), has varied widely up and down in most recent years, depending on the time of year and numerous supply and demand conditions. Growers can choose What growers should be aware of is that there are ways to reduce the from several good risk that they will have to buy propane at one of those times when the alternatives to paying price is highest. This newsletter explains several alternative methods consistently high prices growers can use to get lower and more stable propane costs over time. for propane. Understanding the Basics of Propane Pricing The most fundamental factor in propane pricing is that propane is basically a fossil fuel, being derived from raw natural gas during the oil refining process. -
New Federal Law Addresses Excise Tax on LNG, LPG, And
Multistate Tax EXTERNAL ALERT New federal law addresses excise tax on LNG, LPG, and CNG August 13, 2015 Overview President Obama recently signed into law the Surface Transportation and Veterans Health Care Choice Improvement Act of 2015 (H.R. 3236).1 Effective January 1, 2016, the new law equalizes the federal excise tax treatment of liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and provides further guidance applicable to the taxation of compressed natural gas (CNG). This Tax Alert summarizes these federal excise tax law changes. The federal excise tax on alternative fuels Currently, under Internal Revenue Code (I.R.C.) §4041, the federal excise tax on “alternative fuels” is imposed when such fuels are sold for use or used as a fuel in a motor vehicle or motorboat.2 The term “alternative fuels” includes, but is not limited to, LNG, CNG, and LPG.3 LNG is currently subject to tax at the federal diesel fuel tax rate of 24.3 cents per gallon.4 However, LNG contains a lower energy content than diesel. According to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, LNG has an energy content of 74,700 Btu per gallon (lower heating value), while diesel has an energy content of 128,450 Btu per gallon (lower heating value).5 Therefore, one gallon of LNG has the energy equivalency of 58 percent of one gallon of diesel fuel, although LNG is currently taxed as having the energy equivalency of 100 percent of one gallon of diesel fuel.6 Similarly, LPG is currently subject to tax at the federal gasoline tax rate of 18.3 cents per gallon.7 However, LPG contains a lower energy content than gasoline. -

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)
Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) Demand, Supply and Future Perspectives for Sudan Synthesis report of a workshop held in Khartoum, 12-13 December 2010 The workshop was funded by UKaid from the Department for International Development Cover image: © UNAMID / Albert Gonzalez Farran This report is available online at: www.unep.org/sudan Disclaimer The material in this report does not necessarily represent the views of any of the organisations involved in the preparation and hosting of the workshop. It must be noted that some time has passed between the workshop and the dissemination of this report, during which some important changes have taken place, not least of which is the independence of South Sudan, a fact which greatly affects the national energy context. Critically, following the independence, the rate of deforestation in the Republic of Sudan has risen from 0.7% per year to 2.2% per year, making many of the discussions within this document all the more relevant. Whilst not directly affecting the production of LPG, which is largely derived from oil supplies north of the border with South Sudan, the wider context of the economics of the energy sector, and the economy as a whole, have changed. These changes are not reflected in this document. This being said, it is strongly asserted that this document still represents a useful contribution to the energy sector, particularly given its contribution to charting the breadth of perspectives on LPG in the Republic of Sudan.

Received: 16 July 2020; Accepted: 30 July 2020; Published: 3 August 2020 Abstract: A series of Co3O4 catalysts with different contents of residual sodium were prepared using a precipitation method with sodium carbonate as a precipitant and tested for the catalytic oxidation 1 1 of 1000 ppm propane and toluene at a weight hourly space velocity of 40,000 mL g− h− , respectively. Several techniques were used to characterize the physicochemical properties of the catalysts. Results showed that residual sodium could be partially inserted into the Co3O4 spinel lattice, inducing distortions and helping to increase the specific surface area of the Co3O4 catalysts. Meanwhile, it could negatively affect the reducibility and the oxygen mobility of the catalysts. -

Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is an alternative fuel within the meaning of the European Union Directive (2014/94/UE), as it is an alternative for energy sources derived from crude oil. The use of LPG fuel in low-power internal combustion engines is one of the currently developed scientific research directions. It results from the possibility of limiting air pollutant emissions compared to the commonly used gasoline and the lower cost of this fuel in many countries. By “gasoline 95” the Authors mean non-lead petrol as a flammable liquid that is used primarily as a fuel in most spark-ignited internal combustion engines, whereas 95 is an octane rating (octane number).
