The benefits of utilizing Condition Based Maintenance (CBM) over a time based preventative approach to reduce life cycle costs has been well documented over the years. The U.S. Navy has been working through several separate programs, such as Smartship, Integrated Condition Assessment System (ICAS), Accelerated Capabilities Initiative (ACI), to develop this technology for use in the fleet. Recently, an effort was initiated to coordinate these programs in an application on marine gas turbines. This paper describes the phased process of CBM implementation on marine gas turbines and the resulting benefits of reduced life cycle costs and condition based engineering plant alignment.

Malaysia has an abundance of biomass resources that can be utilised for power generation. One of them is paddy residue. Paddy residue creates ahuge potential in the power generation sector. The consumption of paddy residue can help Malaysia become less dependent on conventional sources of energy, mitigate greenhouse gas(GHG) emission, offer positive feedback in the economic sector, and at the same time, provide thebest solution for waste management activities. The forecast datafor 20 years on electricity generation wasused to calculate the GHG emission and its saving when paddy residue is used for electricity generation. The government’scost saving was also identified when paddy residue substituted coal fuel in electricity generation.This paper can provide forecast information so that Malaysia is able to move forward to apply paddy residue as feedstock in energy supply. Hopefully, the data achieved can encourage stakeholder bodies in the implementation of paddy residue inelectricity generation since there is apositive impact towardscost and emission saving.
