Abstract

An apparatus and process can be configured for filtering and cooling air to be fed to a gas turbine while also vaporizing at least a portion of fuel to be fed to the gas turbine. Intake air can be passed through a filter house for filtration. While passing through the filtration house, a liquid fuel can be passed through the filter house to be vaporized or partially vaporized therein via heat exchange with the air passing through the filter house, which can also cool the air as it is passing through the filter house. Filtered, cooled air can be output from the filter house for feeding to a gas turbine as an oxidant while the at least partially vaporized fuel can also be output from the filter house for feeding to the gas turbine for being combusted therein.
