according to international trade theories, countries attempt to produce and export commodities with their abundant resources. iran has great energy resources and availability of inexpensive energy input has increased energy consumption per capita in manufacturing sector as well as in consuming sector. relying on low energy price, manufacturers employ energy-intensive methods for producing and e...

the aims of this study were to assess the energy and economic flows of biodiesel production from olive pomace oil using transesterification method with ultrasound waves. for this purpose biodiesel production from this feedstock were examined through a life-cycle process with considering five main stages of agricultural production, transportation, olive oil extraction, pomace oil extraction and ...

with the increasing world population and limitations on arable land, increasing the yield per unit is one of alternatives human food supply. greenhouse cultivation as one ways of increase the performance can arrive this purpose. but the energy restriction of another human challenges, so that increase the performance without considering energy consumption almost appears to be meaningless. due to...

conclusions this study showed a high prevalence of energy drinks consumption among youth. the current results highlight the importance of education to prevent the consumption of energy drinks in excessive quantities and modifying some wrong perceptions regarding the benefits of energy drinks in youth. patients and methods a pilot cross-sectional study survey was undertaken on students aged betw...

man raises level of his needs by falsifying the nature and construction of the built spaces. by examining various aspects and complex dimensions of the human, variable and different needs can be clearly seen. therefore, an architectural construction, especially housing, should be able to set the access conditions to meet the highest level of the needs and achieve to the highest level of respons...

due to increasingly expansion of energy consumption and also decreasing and tendency towardsending fossil energy reserves, the current energy cycle needs to use alternative energy speciallywind energy, because it’s considerably cheaper than other recycling sources. the present researchinvestigates possibility of creating wind power station economically at soltanieh zone of zanajnprovince regard...

fuel wood provides the main source of energy for cooking and space heating for over 80 percent of households living in kenya. the heavy reliance on the biomass energy has exerted an imbalance in demand and supply consequently resulting in adverse environmental effects in kenya. as part of innovation efforts, several energy-conserving technologies have been developed. a unique cook stove named m...

in this research, energetic andexergetic analysis of calcium oxide formation, co2 emissions, andenvironmental effects during the clinker production process in rotary kilnare investigated. first the energy and exergy analysis of rotary kiln were carried out according to the first and second law of thermodynamics based on dead state, respectively. consequently, the amount of co2 emissions associa...
