Heat, Electricity, or Transportation? The Optimal Use of Residual and Waste Biomass in Europe from an Environmental Perspective

Christian Ludwig, Bernhard Steubing

The optimal use of forest energy wood, industrial wood residues, waste wood, agricultural residues, animal manure, biowaste, and sewage sludge in 2010 and 2030 was assessed for Europe. An energy system model was developed comprising 13 principal fossil tec ...

Cuckoo Directory: A Scalable Directory for Many-Core Systems

Babak Falsafi, Michael Ferdman, Pejman Lotfi Kamran, Ken Balet

Growing core counts have highlighted the need for scalable on-chip coherence mechanisms. The increase in the number of on-chip cores exposes the energy and area costs of scaling the directories. Duplicate-tag based directories require highly associative st ...

Elimination of micropollutants in wastewater treatment plants : Ozonation or activated carbon? Conclusions of a one-year pilot project

David Andrew Barry, Luca Rossi, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Jonas Margot, Anoys Magnet

Many organic micropollutants present in wastewater, such as pharmaceuticals and pesticides, are poorly removed in conventional wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). To reduce the release of these substances into the aquatic environment, advanced treatments a ...
