Predicting CO and NOx emissions from gas turbines: novel data and a benchmark PEMS

Predictive emission monitoring systems (PEMS) are important tools for validation and backing up of costly continuous emission monitoring systems used in gas-turbine-based power plants. Their implementation relies on the availability of appropriate and ecologically valid data. In this paper, we introduce a novel PEMS dataset collected over five years from a gas turbine for the predictive modeling of the CO and NOx emissions. We analyze the data using a recent machine learning paradigm, and present useful insights about emission predictions. Furthermore, we present a benchmark experimental procedure for comparability of future works on the data.
