The purpose of this study was to provide a guideline for the selection technologies suitable ASHRAE international climate zones when designing high-performance buildings. In study, were grouped as passive, active, and renewable energy systems. Energy saving comprising 15 cases categorized into EnergyPlus v9.5.0 used analyze contribution each technology in reducing primary consumption. consumpti...

a preliminary design of a polygeneration system (combined cooling-heating-power plant with a desalination unit), is proposed for a tourist resort located on the spanish coast. the well-known trigenerationconcept is enhanced to the included production of desalted water, considering for the purpose three different options: reverse osmosis (rodp), multi-effect (medp) and a combination of rodp and ...

as the main actor of implementing energy saving and pollution abatement, corporations and their response to the policy are studied in this paper. we find that corporate properties as scale, ownership, current environmental performance on energy using and pollution, target market and listed situation have impact on the corporate responding conduct and progress. especially, current environmental ...

With the increasing attention on developing a low-carbon economy, it is necessary to seek appropriate ways on reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions through innovative municipal solid waste management (MSWM), such as urban symbiosis. However, quantitative assessments on the environmental benefits of urban symbiosis, especially in developing countries, are limited because only a limited number ...

Office workers typically care little about saving energy because they are not responsible for paying energy-related bills. The goal of this study is to find ways to reduce the unconscious negative impact by applying persuasive technologies to create awareness and encourage office workers towards more environmentally-sustainable behavior. This paper presents a summary of the intervention techniq...

This paper discusses the development of mesh jet devices for hybrid turbines, including developing Euler's ideas, and considers a new patented version device designed to create guiding turbines. The research methods are based on simulations using CFD additive technologies. An intermediate conclusion is that scientific direction study creation control systems has been formed as part ideas. Calcu...
