Look up: Co-generation

1. Co-generation
   A method of using the heat that is produced as a by-product of electrical generation and that would otherwise be wasted; the heat can be used for space heating of buildings or for industrial purposes. Utilising the heat in this way means that 70-85% of the energy converted from fuel can be put to us...

2. Code generation
   (compiler) In computer science, `code generation` is the process by which a compiler`s `code generator` converts some intermediate representation of source code into a form (e.g., machine code) that can be readily executed by a machine (often a computer). Sophisticated compilers typically per...

5. Cogeneration
   A facility in which two or more forms of energy are generated simultaneously or interchangeably. Commonly, a cogeneration facility produces steam for an industrial or commercial process and uses some of the steam to turn a turbine that generates electricity. Another type of cogeneration arrangement ...

7. cogeneration
   The sequential production of electricity and useful thermal energy from a common fuel source. Reject heat from industrial processes can be used to power an electric generator (bottoming cycle). Conversely, surplus heat from an electric generating plant can be used for industrial processes, or space ...

10. Cogeneration
    `Cogeneration` (also `combined heat and power`, `CHP`) is the use of a heat engine or a power station to simultaneously generate both electricity and useful heat. All power plants emit a certain amount of heat during electricity generation. This can be released into the natural environment through c...
