water intake quota control system for turbines or hydropower spillways to reduce methane and other greenhouse gas emissions

"WATER TAILING QUOTA CONTROL SYSTEM FOR HDRELECTRIC TURBINES OR SPILLS FOR REDUCING METHANE EMISSIONS AND OTHER GREENHOUSE GASES". Characterized by the presence of a float, main sealing element, guides and complementary surfaces, where the main sealing element is attached to the float to ensure that its upper face is at a fixed depth from the instantaneous actual level of the reservoir and seated. Since the passageway between the top of this element and the surface of the reservoir or float is much larger than that for the clearance of the guides, it is ensured that virtually all of the water intended for the spillway or turbines comes from surface layers of the reservoir and thus free of methane and other greenhouse gases of more violent effects than CO 2 with this construction eliminates any problems with carbon credits of the reservoir or its operator. It is necessary to use different arrangements in the solution of the emission problems due to the different geometries of the several dams with problems of inadequate design of the water intake as the greenhouse gas detachment, since the depth of the reservoir can go from a dozen meters to over a hundred, the turbines may be near or far, in the dam or channel-fed, the gates may have different geometries. For this reason the moving part may be flat or arched, and whether or not the arc has a bottom. There is no significant pressure differential between the two sides. WATER COUPLE CONTROL SYSTEM FOR TURBINES OR HYDROELECTRIC SPILLS FOR REDUCING METHANE EMISSIONS AND OTHER GREENHOUSE GASES this is a lightweight construction, unlike for example floodgates. spillways.
