Renewable Energy's Role in Latin America's Future
Reeser, L.G. and Acra, A.P.L.  1994.  The inter-relationship of renewable fuels and the three “E’s” – Energy, Economy and environment – becomes crucial as energy intensive agriculture prevails. Pressures for clean air and water have hastened development and acceptance of renewable fuels from biomass as fuel and extenders to…
Maintenance Welding in Sugar and or Alcohol Mills
Fluckiger, J.L.  1994.  The constant increase in the number of grinding seasons encouraged the search for new solutions to combat wears. As a result, welding technology has brought important new contributions to the industry. Today the MIG/MAG process, with tubular or solid wires, provides greatly improved productivity.…
Cogeneration Potential for Cane Sugar Factories
Kimbrough, W.B. Jr.  1994.  To modify an existing factory or design a new factory to maximize bagasse production for export power, all factors of the sugar making process must evaluated. The three principal areas of the factory where steps can be taken to provide for the exports of electrical power are as follows: boiler…
A Wastewater Treatment Strategy for Sugar Mills and Refineries
Wexler, H.M.  1994.  The best technical and most cost effective solution to waste treatment greatly depends on the raw wastewater characteristics. Waste characteristics can only be estimated once the source reduction scope of work is identified, and actual waste characteristics can only be ascertained after…
Variable Frequency Centrifugal Drives - A Convergence on Converters
Coleman, J.M.  1995.  The variable frequency drive for the automatic batch centrifugal, utilizing the reliable induction motor provides a combination of performance and energy efficiency not available in earlier drive systems. Two types of electronic inverters are in use –the CSI and the PWM. There is longer…
