Fine Art Print : Industrial power station
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Industrial power station
Industrial power station. This is the COGEN power station at ExxonMobils Fawley Oil Refinery and Chemical Plant, Hampshire, UK. It burns gases from the oil processed at the refinery, and uses the hot exhaust gases to drive turbines (similar to the way a jet engine works). This generates power much more efficiently than a conventional power station. Further efficiency gains are made by passing the gases from the turbines through a heat exchanger to extract the heat from them. This heat is used to generate steam, which is then used in the nearby chemical plant. This dual production of electricity and steam make it a co-generating (COGEN) power station. This refinery and chemical manufacturing site is one of the largest in Europe

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the impressive sight of an industrial power station, specifically the COGEN power station at ExxonMobil's Fawley Oil Refinery and Chemical Plant in Hampshire, UK. This technological marvel burns gases derived from oil processing and ingeniously utilizes the resulting hot exhaust gases to drive turbines, akin to how a jet engine operates. The outcome is a highly efficient generation of power compared to traditional power stations. To further enhance its efficiency, the turbine exhaust gases are passed through a heat exchanger that extracts their valuable heat. This extracted heat is then utilized to generate steam which finds purpose in powering the nearby chemical plant. It is this dual production of electricity and steam that earns it the title of co-generating (COGEN) power station. Notably, this refinery and chemical manufacturing site holds distinction as one of Europe's largest facilities in its field. Its structural prowess stands tall against the backdrop of England's picturesque landscape while playing a vital role in meeting energy demands sustainably. With its advanced engineering techniques and cutting-edge technology, this industrial powerhouse exemplifies efficiency at every stage - from minimizing carbon emissions through effective gas utilization to harnessing waste heat for additional productivity. As we strive towards reducing our carbon footprint globally, such innovative solutions pave the way for greener energy alternatives within industries across Europe and beyond.
