dc.description.abstractThis thesis presents the results of a study of pollutant stack emissions from a gas turbine performed on a real time basis. Field studies were made at the site of a stationary industrial gas turbine utilizing natural gas fuel. Equipment for measuring stack pollutant emissions was obtained and located on the gas turbine site. Nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, aldehydes and sulfur dioxide were measured. An evaluation of the emissions related to gas turbine exhaust stack mass flow was made. A literature review of stack emissions from combustion sources was made. Results of the study are presented and discussed. Conclusions are made relating to the emissions measured and the equipment used. The results are related to the Houston area environment. Recommendations are made for further study and developmental activity.
