Hydropower has a long track record of providing affordable and reliable electricity to various regions of the world throughout the decades. However, diversity in the type of hydropower plant installations results in an array of social, environmental and ec ...
Rechargeable sodium (Na) metal batteries (SMBs) provide an alternative energy-dense, low-cost energy storage system beyond prevailing Li-ion technologies. However, their practical deployment requires the performance evaluation of Na anodes on the device le ...
Precisely predicting the future is an almost impossible challenge. However, predicting possible trend-lines is a more common thing. Current greenhouses gases emissions and climate change are among the most worrying issues humanity will face in a near futur ...
One of the most promising options for decreasing the costs of microalgae production is enhancing the production and reducing the energy demand of the culturing systems and the high surface area requirements. Because microalgae growth requires only specific ...
The Iron and Steel Industry is one of the most carbon-intensive in the European Union, and to meet the climate agreement objectives for 2050, it must dramatically reduce its environmental footprint. The present study analyzes the potential for CO2 emission ...
The rapid growth of urban areas and concerns over climate change make it vital to improve the energy sustainability of cities. Understanding the complex interactions within different sectors (sectoral) and localities (spatial) of cities plays a crucial rol ...
This paper gives a new formulation to design adaptive structures through total energy optimization (TEO). This methodology enables the design of truss as well as tensegrity configurations that are equipped with linear actuators to counteract the effect of ...
The expected increase of the penetration of distributed renewable energy technologies into the electricity grid is expected to lead to major challenges. As a main stakeholder, authorities often lack the appropriate tools to frame and encourage the transiti ...
Self-sufficiency (SS) of buildings with low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions can be obtained using photovoltaics (PV). To maximize self-consumption - minimizing the import of grid electricity - PV can be coupled with a hydrogen storage system converting the ...
Lignocellulosic biomass is a potential renewable resource for production of high-value, sustainable products. Furfural is among the important bio-based chemicals in biorefineries. However, the conventional process of furfural production using a reaction-se ...
