The term "package treatment unit" is applied to a wide spectrum of plant manufactured [modules] assembled ahead of time, usually at a manufacturing facility remote from the site. A package unit is typically delivered to the site as a skid-mounted unit, pre-piped and pre-wired ready for connecting to the process tanks and mains services, thus saving on installation work and operational downtime.... Package units can... provide a first stage of treatment for effluent from industry, particularly the food and drink sector, in order to cut discharge costs.

[The] most significant development in family value is the flight operational commonality, shared by Airbus A320 and A330/A340 families, covering aircraft from 100 to 440 seats in capacity. The ten aircraft in these families have the same flight deck and the same operational qualities—electronic instrument displays, controls, routine and emergency procedures, task sharing—plus very similar flight handling characteristics... The benefits to airlines and pilots are exceptional : easier transitioning from one aircraft type to another through cross crew qualification; multi-type qualifications, enabling mixed fleet flying; greater mobility and productivity for pilots; savings in operating costs that can amount to millions of dollars every year.

The Atlantic Provinces Special Education Authority(APSEA) is an interprovincial cooperative agency established in 1975 by joint agreement among the Ministers of Education of New Brunswick, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island. The agreement provided for the creation of the Atlantic Provinces Special Education Authority and authorized it to provide educational services, programs, and opportunities for persons from birth to 21 years of age with low incidence sensory impairments. This includes children and youth who are deaf, deaf-blind, hard of hearing, blind, or visually impaired and who are residence of Atlantic Canada. The APSEA Agreement is the only one of its kind in Canada, and such, may serve as a model for service delivery at a regional level. Operational costs are shared among the four provinces.

We are deeply involved in cogeneration plants including biomass and gas turbines.... Co-Generation Power Island..... "Power Islands, ""Merchant Plants, ""Across the Fence Cogeneration, ""Third Party Steam Plants, "and "Client CHP" are some of the names used to refer to unconventional commercial arrangements for the production and procurement of steam and electrical power to pulp and paper mills. Although the term "Power Island" is often used to describe third party cogeneration facilities, the concept is completely different from an island. The power house that provides the steam and power to the mill has a direct and immediate effect on the pulp mill' s operational stability and uptime as well as the operating costs.

CONT

The IGCC [Integrated Gasification with Combined Cycle] demonstration plant in Puertollano features many advantages compared to conventional coal fired power stations with flue gas desulphurization (FGD) and DeNOx systems: ... The plant consists of the following three main units: Power island, gasification island, and oxygen production plant (Air Separation). ... The power island. The combined cycle in the Puertollano plant ... can be operated both with natural gas and synthesis gas. The main features are: A 200 MWe (ISO) Siemens model V94.3 gas turbine. A three-pressure level and IP steam reheating heat recovery steam generator designed by Babcock able to additionally superheat the steam generated through raw gas cooling in the gasification. A two casing reheat steam turbine designed by Siemens that delivers roughly 135 MWe. The clean coal gas is burned by the coal gas burners in the combustion chamber of the gas turbine. The sensible heat of extracted air is used for clean gas saturation, low pressure steam production and preheating of impure nitrogen. [Text accompanied by a schematic diagram.]

CONT

The liberalization of the energy market is demanding more-efficient power plants using cheaper fuels. ... The first option ... is to convert old oil- or existing gas-fired power plants to new combined-cycle power plants. The second option is to convert old oil- or existing gas-fired units to efficient and environmentally friendly power plants that burn cheaper fuels, using the best available technology for the power island and the flue gas treatment equipment.

Like other public and private sector organisations, and in keeping with federal government directions, PWGSC [Public Works and Government Services Canada], is striving to reduce costs and improve overall operational efficiency. In striving to achieve its goals, a performance-based property management regime has been selected as the basis for contracting out. PWGSC is therefore moving to performance-based property management contracting with emphasis on outcomes such as client satisfaction and asset integrity rather than on process. The AFD [alternate forms of delivery] contractor will be required to provide services that will be measured against Key Performance Indicators(KPIs).

Most commercial plants have at least six columns in the reactor battery controlled by microprocessor feedback devices. While increasing the number of reactors provides greater operational flexibility and minimal flow rate variation, it is nevertheless important to accept the resulting higher costs for reactor piping, valves, and instrumentation.
