In electrical power applications, gas turbines are typically used for peaking duty, where rapid startup and short runs are needed. Most installed simple gas turbines with no controls have only a 20%-30% efficiency.

Total world mining of bauxite is about 185,000 thousand tons per year with proven reserves of about 20 billion tons. Uses for aluminum metal are many. It is used in kitchenware extensively and in aviation as well as electrical power applications.

Particle Shape and Size. With few exceptions, resins are supplied as small, round beads having a diameter between 0.3 and 1.2 mm. Some resins are reduced to a smaller size by grinding to satisfy specific requirements in applications for electric power generation (qv) and pharmaceuticals (qv). 

Cogeneration systems will not match the varying power and heat demands at all times for most applications. Thus, an industrial cogeneration systems output frequently must be supplemented by the separate on-site generation of heat or the purchase of utility-supplied elec tric power. If the on-site electric power demand is relatively low, an alternative option is to match the cogeneration system to the heat load and contract for the sale of excess electricity to the local utihty grid.

San Diego Gas Electric s expander is installed in parallel to a major city gate station. This type of system could be installed on a pressure reducing station supplying natural gas to an electric power plant. Large regulator stations serving industrial customers are another possible application.

The development of electrical power made possible the electrochemical industry. Electrolysis of sodium chloride produces chlorine and either sodium hydroxide (from NaCl in solution) or metallic sodium (from NaCl fused). Sodium hydroxide has applications similar to sodium carbonate. The ad vantage of the electrolytic process is the production of chlorine which has many uses such as production of polyvinyl chloride. PVC, for plumbing, is produced in the largest quantity of any plastic. 

Apart from considerations given to corrosion resistance and suitability for hazardous (classified) areas, the selection of electric motors for oil field applications is the same as the selection of electric motors for other industrial applications. One exception may be the selection of motors for areas where electric power is self-generated. Frequency and voltage variations may occasionally occur at such locations. For such locations, consideration should be given to specifying motors which are tolerant to at least 10% voltage variations and 5% frequency variations.
