The decline in annual rainfall, coupled with the growing demand for water in agricultural fields, triggered a new crisis in today's world. Thus, the focus is on finding solutions to new water resources. Taking a look at the normal daily life, most of the households' effluents can be ranked into...

Despite the increasing global focus on replacing fossil fuels with biomass resources, handling the enormous quantity of ash from biomass thermochemical conversion processes into energy remains a serious challenge from both environmental and economic points of view. Therefore, in pursuit of the...

The current study objective is to contribute to the factors that make better the economic growth of the Asia countries with an importance on the frequently deserted bilateral FDI, energy use, CO2 emissions and capital role in the economic growth. This study applies generalized method of moments...

In this study we investigated the relation between energy consumption and growth of total factor productivity (TFP) of agriculture in Iran from 1974 to 2012 using Solow residual method. The results from estimated aggregate Cobb–Douglas production function showed that one percent change in the...

It presents an effective bio-butanol production with various acid hydrolysis treatment strategies H2SO4, HCI and H3PO4 (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5%) from Nannochloropsis gaditana grown under different light intensities (40, 80, 120 and 160μmolm-2 s-1). Microalgae were cultivated at 24 ± 2 with f/2...

Heat transfer data for the effect of the reactor and surrounding temperature on the hydrogen production from water vapour decomposition using Dielectric-Barrier Discharge (DBD) plasma are reported. The water vapour was injected into the plate micro channel reactor (PMCR) where the PMCR and its...

Energy transitions aim at economic prosperity through "green-collar" job-creation, greater energy "independence", and/or reduced emissions. These objectives imply creating policy-supported national renewable technology industries, ideally reducing clean energy costs to a point where support...

Wind energy technologies are being developed in order to reduce the costs of the generated electricity and increasing technological performance. Therefore, understanding the technological development paths is an important part of the debates among technology developers and policymakers of energy...

Low temperature selective catalytic reduction (SCR) catalysts were prepared by using acetic acid modified fly ash (ACFA) and TiO2 with the loading of Mn-Ce. The powder catalysts were characterized by BET, XRD and SEM. The effects of Mn-Ce molar ratio on the NO conversion of SCR catalyst were...
