It has become interested in the concept of permeable barriers for the containment and/or destruction of contaminated groundwater. The purpose of these trench-like barriers is to provide in situ capture and possibly destruction of the contaminant while preserving groundwater flow to uncontaminated zones. For instance, a trichloreethylene(TCE) plume may be contained by a permeable in which reactive iron reduces TCE to ethylene and ethane, compounds which can be easily biodegraded. The objective of this research is to examine the feasibility of using zero-valent iron as a clean-up media in permeable reactive barrier system. A series of laboratory column tests are performed. The concentration of influent and effluent water and the rate of clean up are analysed from these test results. The experimental result shows that the majority of the contamination in groundwater is removed in the reactor. And it shows the corresponding increase in the concentration of chloride ions through the reactor. Results from this study indicate that permeable reactive barrier containing admixtures of zero-valent iron and other materials can effectively clean up groundwater contaminated with organic compounds.

Automatically tuned passive filters can improve power quality to a great extent in power systems. A novel three-phase shunt auto-tuned filter is designed to effectively compensate source current harmonics and to provide reactive power required by the non-linear load, which draws a highly reactive, harmonic-rich current from the supply. An artificial neural network (ANN) based controller selects filter component values in accordance with reactive power requirement and harmonic compensation. Traditional passive filters are permanently connected to the system and draw large amounts of source current even under light load conditions. By using auto-tuned filters, the passive filter components can be controlled according to load variations and, hence, draw only required source currents. The selection is done by the ANN with the help of a properly tuned knowledge base to provide instantaneous compensation using a digital controller.

From the viewpoint of an effective energy use, many method for reactive power compensation has been developed. Among of the reactive power compensation, this paper describes the relation of operation interpretation, filter, hysteresis width and switching time of current controlled PWM converter which has excellent reactive power compensation. This current controlled PWM convertor is excellent the view of reactive power compensation by current control method using hysteresis comparator method, but is required element of high response characteristics. Therefore this paper offers the series of data for system considering switching characteristics of switching element.

This paper presents a new method for optimal real and reactive power dispatch for the economic operation of a power system. Unlike the usual approach of minimizing the transmission loss, this method minimizes the total production cost not only for the real power optimization problem, but also for the reactive power optimization. The control variables are real power generation of units for real power optimization, and reactive power optimization. The constraints are the operating limits on these control variables and the limits on the bus voltages. Methematical models are developed to represent the sensitivity relationships between dependent and control variables for both real and reactive power optimization modules, and thus eliminate the use of B-coefficients. In order to handle many functional inequality constraints, a modified version of the gradient projection method is developed for optimization procedure, and has shown a remarkable advantage in computation efficiency.

This study investigated the purification process of groundwater contaminated with zinc and arsenic using a permeable reactive barrier with a zero-valent iron/pumice mixture. We determined the removal rates of the contaminants for 30 days. In this study, column reactor filled with the zero-valent iron/pumice reactive mixture was used. Experimental results showed that the mixture exhibited an almost complete removal of the zinc and arsenic ions. Arsenic was removed via co-precipitation and adsorption processes while zinc ions were asorbed in active sites.The purification process of water from the metal ionscontinued for 30 days with constant hydraulic conductivity because of the enhanced porosity of the pumice and interparticle distance between the zero-valent iron and pumice. Contaminants removal rates and the remediation mechanism for each reactive system are described in this paper.

Connecting a synchronous generator to a power system is a dynamic process, requiring the coordinated operation of many components and systems. The goal is to connect the oncoming generator to the system smoothly i.e without causing any significant bumps, surges, or power swings, by closing the ACB when the oncoming generator matches the power system in voltage magnitude, phase angle, and frequency. If oncoming generator voltage is not matched to the power system voltage, reactive power will flow either into or out of the system at the instant of ACB closure. If this voltage difference is too great, the reactive power flow may result in high transient stresses that could damage the windings of the generator. Also, if oncoming generator frequency is not matched to the power system frequency, transient power will flow between generator and power system. If the frequency difference is too great, the transient power flow is reflected into the prime mover shaft, and this may result in excessive shaft or coupling stress. This paper tries to prove the necessity of correct synchronization for ship generators through a transient phenomenon analysis.

This paper shows real-time control technique of voltage-reactive power using the fuzzy theory. Here, major benefits of applying the fuzzy set theory as follow. First, heuristic knowledge of operator has been used in the operation and control of power system. Second, difficulties in traditional multi-objective numerical solution methods have been solved. Also, to achieve optimizing process on the voltage-reactive power control conventional search method have been used.

This paper describes the method of operating the phase controlled rectifier by controlling the firing angle in III, IV quadrant to absorb the lrading reactive power and of improving the waveform of ac current by driving dual converter. The system is intended to compensate the reactive power for any lagging load. Also, by the above method this paper enables us to improve the power factor and waveform referred to the source current and the dc output voltage in the converter.
