British turbine enables peat fuel in industry
Industrial fuel from peat becomes viable via a British open cycle gas turbine of 750 kilowatts. The turbine works with a press to dehydrate peat from about 90 percent water by removing two thirds of the water before using exhaust heat to finish drying. This allows peat to be used regardless of weather or season.
