Kurnell-Raffinerie

Die Kurnell-Raffinerie (englisch: Kurnell Refinery) der Caltex war eine australische Raffinerie auf der Kurnell Peninsula Headland in Sydney, Bundesstaat New South Wales. Die Raffinerie wurde aufgrund des starken Konkurrenzdrucks durch Raffinerien in Asien 2014 stillgelegt. Vor der Stilllegung war die Kurnell-Raffinerie die größte Raffinerie in New South Wales und nach der Kwinana-Raffinerie der BP die zweitgrößte in Australien. Lage Die Raffineriegelände befindet sich auf der Kurnell-Halbinsel im südlichen Stadtgebiet von Sydney. Die Halbinsel liegt zwischen der Botany Bay und dem Pazifischen Ozean. Im Süden des Werksgeländes war die Caltex Lubricating Oil Refinery angegliedert, welche Schmierstoffe auf Ölbasis produzierte. Im Osten grenzt das Areal an den Botany-Bay-Nationalpark. Geschichte 1951 teilte Caltex der Sutherland Shire Council mit, eine Raffinerie errichten zu wollen. Die Bauarbeiten an der Raffinerie starteten im Dezember 1953. Zum Tank- und Auslieferungslager im Banksmeadow Oil Terminal in der Botany Bay City wurden durch eine niederländische Spezialfirma Pipelines durch die Botany Bay verlegt. Um Erdöl aus der Bass-Straße zu verarbeiten, wurde die Raffinerie zwischen 1964 und 1973 erweitert. Im Juli 2012 gab die Caltex bekannt, dass die Kurnell-Raffinerie stillgelegt werden soll. Geplant war, auf dem Gelände ein Import-Terminal einzurichten. Nach der Stilllegung wurden kleinere Teile der Raffinerie als Öl-Terminal weiterbetrieben. Der Abriss der Prozessanlagen, welcher schon 2014 begonnen hatte, zog sich bis 2019 hin. Es wurden insgesamt 14 Prozessanlagen, 67 Öltanks sowie unzählige Rohrleitungen abgebaut. Durch den Abriss mussten 112.000 Tonnen Betonschutt und 50.000 Tonnen Stahlschrott wiederverwertet oder entsorgt werden. Technische Daten Das verarbeitete Rohöl wurde vom Öl-Terminal Kurnell Wharf in der Botany Bay zur Raffinerie geleitet. Die Produkte verließen die Raffinerie per Pipeline zu den Terminals in Banksmeadow, Silverwater und Wickham (Newcastle).

Kurnell Refinery

The Kurnell Refinery was a crude oil refinery located in Kurnell on Botany Bay, New South Wales, Australia. It had a refining capacity of 124,500 barrels per day (19,790 m3/d). It was operated by Caltex Australia, and owned by the Chevron Corporation. History Construction began on the refinery in 1953. The refinery was built in 1956 by Caltex on 174 hectares (430 acres) of land located in Botany Bay, close to Sydney. About 3,000 men worked at the project's various sites during the peak of construction. It was further expanded in 1964 and 1973. On 26 July 2012, Caltex announced its decision to close the refinery in the second half of 2014. Caltex said that the closure would eliminate about 330 direct positions, and as many as 300 contracting jobs. The refinery ceased operation in October 2014 and was converted into an import terminal to supply imported fuel for Australian customers. Technical features The refinery had a capacity of 124.5 thousand barrels per day (19.79×10^3 m3/d), 56 storage tanks and a staff of approximately 700 employees. The site of the refinery also has a 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) wharf that can handle ships up to 60,000 DWT. References
Kwinana Power Station

Kwinana Power Station (KPS) was Synergy's second-largest power station, located in Naval Base, Western Australia. At its peak, power was produced from six turbines driven by steam from boilers fired by coal, natural gas or fuel oil, and one gas turbine. The steam turbines closed in 2015; however, two gas turbines continue to operate on the site. This is not to be confused with Cockburn Power Station to its immediate south. KPS was originally built in 1970 as an oil-fired power station, however it was later converted to coal due to the rising price of oil caused by the 1973 oil crisis. This project received an Engineering Excellence Award from the Institution of Engineers Australia in 1980. A 20 MW gas turbine, able to be operated on natural gas or diesel fuel, was added in 1972 and took the total nameplate rating to 900 MW which was the station's peak. With greatly increased availability of natural gas from the North West Shelf Venture project, natural gas firing was introduced in the mid 1980s. In 2005 oil burning was re-introduced making the power station unique in Western Australia as it could burn the three fuels: coal, natural gas and oil. In 2025, the smokestacks were gradually dismantled. The original station operated: Two 120 MW steam turbines (oil/gas/coal fired) as A units 1 & 2 from 1970/1 to September 2010 Two 120 MW steam turbines (oil/gas/coal fired) as B units 3 & 4 from 1972/3 to December 2008 Two 200 MW steam turbines (oil/gas/coal fired) as C units 5 & 6 from 1978/9 to October 2015 One 20 MW gas turbine from 1972 References External links Media related to Kwinana Power Station at Wikimedia Commons
ТЕС Квінана

ТЕС Квінана — теплова електростанція на заході Австралії. У складі класичної конденсаційної електростанції ввели в дію три черги: - у 1970 та 1971 роках стала до ладу Квінана А з двома паровими турбінами потужністю по 120 МВт; - у 1973 та 1974 роках запустили два блоки Квінана В так само з паровими турбінами потужністю по 120 МВт; - у 1976 та 1978 роках ввели в дію Квінана С, обидва блоки якої мали парові турбіни по 200 МВт. Крім того, в 1972-му для покриття пікових навантажень запустили газову турбіну потужністю 20 МВт. В 2008 році вивели з експлуатації Квінана В, за якою в 2010-му зупинили Квінана А, а в 2015-му те саме відбулось з Квінана С. Натомість в 2014-му ввели в дію дві встановлені на роботу у відкритому циклі газові турбіни потужністю по 100 МВт, які мають паливну ефективність на рівні 46 %. Первісно основним паливом для станції обрали нафту, втім, на тлі стрімкого зростання її ціни блоки Квінана А та С перевели на вугілля. Наприкінці 1980-х до регіону по трубопроводу Дампір – Банбері подали природний газ, який могли споживати всі черги. У 2005-му ТЕС повернули можливість працювати на нафті. Для видалення продуктів згоряння парових котлів використовували три димаря, два з яких були заввишки по 140 метрів, тоді як димар Квінана С досягав 189 метрів. Для охолодження використовували морську вода. Видача продукції відбувається під напругою 330 кВ та 132 кВ. Примітки

Lake Batyo Catyo

Lake Batyo Catyo is a human-made freshwater lake located 26 km west of the town of St Arnaud in North Central Victoria, Australia. It is now dry, as the inflow channel from the Richardson River was permanently closed in 2012. The lake surface covered 230 hectares to an average depth of 2.5 metres. It is the terminus for water flowing from the Richardson River via Souths Creek and three smaller reservoirs to its southwest. History The lake was constructed in 1961 as an irrigation reservoir for dairying and for cereal crops. Water was diverted from the Richardson River during high-flow periods to create a reservoir holding an average of 1,130 ML and a maximum of 2,250 ML. The lake was used for waterskiing and other recreational and tourist activities based in the nearby towns of Donald and St. Arnaud. However, in 2010, the Wimmera Mallee Pipeline was completed, meaning water storage at Batyo Catyo was no longer necessary. In 2012, Richardson River diversion rules were changed so water no longer flowed into Batyo Catyo, and the inflow from Rich Avon Weir was permanently closed. In 2020, local communities began campaigning to restore water to Lake Batyo Catyo for recreational purposes. Fauna Now dry, the lake was home to communities of Murray cod, golden perch and redfin perch, though fish habitat can be affected by drought conditions. Flora Native flora include species common to grassy wetlands. The shoreline is dominated by river red gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) associated with Canegrass (Eragrostis infecunda) Tangled Lignum (Muehlenbeckia florulenta) and spiny sedge (Cyperus gymnocaulus). The southern and southwestern shore is also home to stands of black box (Eucalyptus largiflorens) Three threatened species are present: the Pale Spike sedge (Eleocharis pallens), Chariot Wheels (Maireana cheeli) and Turnip Copperbur (Sclerolaena napiformis). Upstream land clearing in the 1960s has increased salinity levels in the lake, but a 2006 water quality study indicated sufficient fresh water to maintain existing vegetation. References Media

Lake Beatrice

Lake Beatrice is a 55-hectare (140-acre) natural lake on the lower eastern side of Mount Sedgwick in the West Coast Range of Western Tasmania, Australia. Lake Beatrice is higher in altitude than the nearby Lake Burbury; however, it is not visible from that level, but can be seen either from the air or the higher slopes of the eastern part of Mount Lyell or the upper levels of Mount Sedgwick. The lake is fed and drained by the Dante Rivulet. The lake was a reference point for the planned Great Western Railway that was considered at the end of the nineteenth century; however was never built. The name of the lake and adjacent ground is tied into exploration leases held in the area. The 3,000-hectare (7,400-acre) Lake Beatrice Conservation Area starts in the location of Lake Beatrice and continues north to Lake Huntley and Lake Rolleston; and it is bordered on either side by the 14,000-hectare (35,000-acre) Tyndall Regional Reserve.

Lake Canobolas

Lake Canobolas is a man-made reservoir located near Orange, in the central west region of New South Wales, Australia. Completed in the early 1900s, between 1918 and 1957 the lake supplied water to Orange and since the 1970s has been used for recreation purposes. Location and features Lake Canobolas, formerly known as Meadow Creek Dam across the Molong Creek, is located approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) to the southwest of Orange, below Mount Canobolas, an extinct volcano and one of the highest peaks between the Blue Mountains and Perth. Between 1918 and 1957, the dam was managed by Canobolas Shire Council and used for water supply to the town of Orange. Since that time the administration of the area surrounding Lake Canobolas and the dam were taken over by the Orange City Council and were developed for recreational purposes. The area of 103 hectares (250 acres) now comprises the lake, an earth sanctuary, a nature reserve, and a Scout Camp and lies within the Cabonne Shire. Since 1962, the main water supply for Orange is sourced from Suma Park Dam on the eastern side of Orange. The name of the lake is derived from the Aboriginal words coona, meaning shoulder and booloo meaning two. It was used by the Wiradjuri to refer to the twin peaks, now known as Old Man Canobolas and Young Man Canobolas. The Lake is regularly used by Colour City Dragons and Pinnacle Paddlers- dragon boat clubs. The area is also used by the Orange Triathlon Club and Goldseekers Orienteering Club for Park foot orienteering. References
