This paper discusses the economic and technical considerations involved in the decision of a large chemical complex to install on-site power generation; why the gas turbine with waste-heat recovery for process steam generation was determined to be the optimum approach; and the reasons for selecting the aircraft-type gas turbine for this particular application. A brief description of plant components and operation is also included.
