Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEvaluating Public Participation Process in Development Projects in Thailand: A Case Study of the Hin Krut Power Plant ProjectChutarat Chompunth, Suphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Public participation has become a vital element of environmental decision-making. Although public participation has grown tremendously in Thailand due to a rising pressure from the public, this practice often fails to solve environmental problems and conflicts. There is a keen for a systematic evaluation of the public participation process to investigate whether the participation process is effective and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 16 Mar 2012 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleIntegrating Renewable and Nonrenewable Energies in Power Plant PlanningHabib H. Al-Ali, Yousef Saif, Ali Elkamel, Ali LohiProblem statement: Electricity can be generated from different type of technologies such as fossil and non-fossil power plants. Among these technologies, coal-fired power plants have been a major route for electricity generation. Recently, environmental constraints were imposed over the coal power plant operations in order to reduce their emissions. Besides, renewable energy power plants such as hydroelectric, wind, solar and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,804 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleOptimal Production Planning of Electricity from Coal-Fired Power Plant Networks under Environmental ConsiderationsHabib H. Al-Ali, Yousef Saif, Ali Elkamel, Ali LohiIn this study, electricity production from a network of coal power plants and under environmental constraints is considered. Several pollutants are incorporated into the decision planning process including nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur oxides (SOx) and mercury (Hg). A Nonconvex Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) model was first developed to assist in the evaluation process. An exact linearization of the nonconvex … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,070 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Impacts of Total System Design Factors on Human Performance in Power PlantsA. Azadeh, J. Nouri, I. Mohammad FamThe objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of total system design factors (TSD) on human performance in a power plant. The TSD factors are defined as design factors, which have an impact on the overall performance of the power plants in the context of total human engineering or macroergonomy.
