The feasibility of using finned oscillating heat pipes (OHPs) for heat exchange between counter-flowing air streams in HVAC air systems (i.e., outdoor and exhaust air flows), along with the associated cost savings in typical North American climates, is investigated. For a prescribed temperature...

The objective of this paper is to analyze whether successful environmental policies spread across geographical space. We examine the existence of such environmental spatial policy spillovers using the example of wastewater treatment in Mexican municipalities. Untreated wastewater is a key...

Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a technique to assess environmental impacts associated with all the stages of a product's life from cradle to grave. With raising human population and the increasing industrialization, there has been very substantial increase in waste products too. Nowadays the...

Despite public approval from the Danish Environmental Protection Agency (Miljøstyrelsen), farmers have proven reluctant to accept wastewater sludge as a source of fertilizer. They are in fact still being paid for accepting it. Based on interviews with key stakeholders, a review of the...

A promising tool to achieve more flexibility within power systems is demand re-sponse (DR). End-users in many strands of industry have been subject to research up to now regarding the opportunities for implementing DR programmes. One sector that has received little attention from the literature...

After introducing the basic aspects of the photoelectrochemical processes for the oxygen transfer reaction, we present the simplest kinetics models that have been built to represent the dynamics of light-induced redox reactions. Additionally, we discuss the basic chemical kinetics formalism used...

Urban water and wastewater management are relatively under-studied subjects in India. The Indian urban space has been understood in an undifferentiated manner, which ignores the specificities deriving from the stage of urban development, the sources of water, as also the diverse nature of...
