    Abstract A great deal of heat is wasted in intensive public shower facilities, such as those in schools, barracks and natatoriums, which open up at specified time. It will contribute a lot to energy saving and environmental protection with significant economic benefits to recycle the exhaust heat. In this paper, we propose two different kinds of heat pumps (an electric heat pump and an absorption heat pump) in the heat recovery systems. In both system, the used shower water is drained through a pipe and collected in a gray water pool. When the wastewater reaches certain volume, the heat pump system will begin working and recycling heat. The wastewater is filtered and piped to the heat exchanger to exchange heat with the tap water whose temperature will increase from 12 °C to 25 °C with the wastewater temperature dropping from 30 °C to 17 °C. Then the wastewater is piped to the heat pump evaporator and the tap water is piped to the condenser for farther heating. According to the different characteristics of the electric heat pump and absorption heat pump, we also introduce the processes and control methods of different heat recovery systems in details in this paper. Based on a practical example, this paper analyzes and compares the economic and environmental benefits of three retrofitting schemes, including “exhaust heat recovery using electric heat pump”, “exhaust heat recovery using electric heat pump + gas boiler” and “exhaust heat recovery using direct-fired heat pump”. Then we find out that the heat recovery system using direct-fired absorption heat pump has lower energy consumption, less pollution, lower operating cost, and shorter payback period. And it has a promising practical application.

    Abstract Hydrothermal treatment (HT) is one of the efficient approaches for upgrading municipal solid waste (MSW). In the present study, emission characteristics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from hydrothermally treated municipal solid waste (H-MSW) combustion alone and H-MSW/coal co-combustion were investigated at different temperatures. The results showed that for all fuel combustion, the majority of PAHs were 3- or 4-ring PAHs. In addition, flue gas had the highest yields of PAHs followed by fly ash and bottom ash, while the ring number of dominated PAHs in fly ash was higher than those in flue gas and bottom ash. Compared to MSW, H-MSW combustion generated less PAHs at the value of 1131.95–7649.24 μg/g. The blending of H-MSW and coal reduced total PAH emissions and positive interactions were observed between H-MSW and coal during co-combustion. The toxicity equivalent quantity (TEQ) values of the PAHs from combustion were in the order MSW > H-MSW > H-MSW/coal, which was consistent with the total PAH emissions. The present study illustrated that significant reduction of PAH emissions and toxicity from combustion could be achieved by HT and the blending of H-MSW and coal.

    Abstract Algae have been considered as a promising biodiesel feedstock. One of the major factors affecting large-scale algae technology application is poor wintering cultivation performance. In this study, an integrated approach is investigated combining freshwater microalgae Chlorella zofingiensis wintering cultivation in pilot-scale photobioreactors with artificial wastewater treatment. Mixotrophic culture with the addition of acetic acid (pH-regulation group) and autotrophic culture (control group) were designed, and the characteristics of algal growth, lipid and biodiesel production, and nitrogen and phosphate removal were examined. The results showed that, by using acetic acid three times per day to regulate pH at between 6.8 and 7.2, the total nitrogen (TN) and total phosphate (TP) removal could be increased from 45.2% to 73.5% and from 92.2% to 100%, respectively. Higher biomass productivity of 66.94 mg L−1 day−1 with specific growth rate of 0.260 day−1 was achieved in the pH-regulation group. The lipid content was much higher when using acetic acid to regulate pH, and the relative lipid productivity reached 37.48 mg L−1 day−1. The biodiesel yield in the pH-regulated group was 19.44% of dry weight, with 16–18 carbons as the most abundant composition for fatty acid methyl esters. The findings of the study prove that pH adjustment using acetic acid is efficient in cultivating C. zofingiensis in wastewater in winter for biodiesel production and nutrient reduction.

    Effectively analyzing and then treating energy-related air pollution requires examining every factor, from the pollution source to the end of treatment. This paper applies index decomposition analysis and a whole process treatment perspective to identify the factors facilitating air pollution reduction across three stages: source prevention, process control, and end-of-pipe treatment. Empirical research using data from China’s Jiangsu Province and its 13 cities reveals differences in local approaches to pollution prevention. At the provincial level, end-of-pipe treatment remains the primary approach to control air pollution emissions, indicating that the pattern of “pollute first, govern later” has not yet been fundamentally reversed. At the city level, 13 cities can be divided into four types, based on their approach to air pollution treatment: the leading type, process-dependent type, end-dependent type, and lagging type. Of these, 7 cities are using multiple control approaches, reflecting the comprehensive effect of whole process treatment. The Jiangsu Province should consider further strengthening effective whole process air pollution treatment models, by transitioning to pollution control, adjusting industrial structure, promoting technological progress, and consuming clean energy.

    Carbon emission reduction is a long-term strategy for China to promote its economic and social development. However, emission reduction often involves a huge amount of technological investment, which could vary substantially across different provinces due to their discrepancy in economic and technological development levels. Emission trading as a useful policy instrument may help different provinces achieve their emission reduction targets cost-effectively. This paper models the economic performance of an interprovincial emission reduction quota trading scheme in China. The marginal abatement cost curve of each province in China is first estimated. A nonlinear programming model is further developed to evaluate the economic performance of interprovincial emission reduction quota trading. Five equity criteria are used to conduct the initial allocation of emission reduction targets between different provinces. Our modeling results show that China’s total emission abatement cost could decrease by over 40% through implementing such an interprovincial emission reduction quota trading scheme. Of the five alternative criteria, the CO2 emissions and population criteria look fairer and are recommended for use in the initial allocation of CO2 emission reduction targets.

    Abstract A novel magnesia-stabilized carbide slag (MSCS) was synthesized with carbide slag, magnesium nitrate hydrate and by-product of biodiesel by combustion, which was used as a CO 2 sorbent during the calcium looping process. The effects of preparation condition (combustion temperature, combustion duration, by-product of biodiesel addition and magnesia addition) and CO 2 capture condition (carbonation and calcination atmosphere) on CO 2 capture capacity of MSCS were investigated during the calcium looping cycles. The main compositions of MSCS are CaO and MgO. The addition of by-product of biodiesel in the preparation of the sorbent leads to the uniform mix of MgO and CaO grains in MSCS, which shows an obviously positive effect on its CO 2 capture capacity. Only on the condition of the addition of by-product of biodiesel, MgO derived from magnesium nitrate hydrate improves the cyclic CO 2 capture capacity and durability of MSCS during the multiple cycles. MSCS with a mass ratio of CaO to MgO of 80:20 combusted at 850 °C for 60 min exhibits higher CO 2 capture capacity and greater durability. The CO 2 capture capacity of MSCS can retain 0.42 g/g after 20 cycles, which is 60% higher than that of carbide slag. MSCS calcined under the high concentration of steam displays much higher CO 2 capture capacity and better sintering resistance during the cycles, compared to MSCS calcined under the high concentration of CO 2 . The addition of steam in the carbonation enhances CO 2 capture capacities of MSCS and carbide slag. MSCS consists of CaO–MgO grain groups and the support of MgO sustains the high sintering resistance of the sorbent. MSCS remains much larger surface area and pore volume than carbide slag during the cycles, compared to carbide slag. MSCS appears promising as an effective and low-cost CO 2 sorbent during the calcium looping.

    With increasing air traffic, rising fuel costs and tighter environmental targets, efficient airport ground operations are one of the key aspects towards sustainable air transportation. This complex system includes elements such as ground movement, runway scheduling and ground services. Previously, these problems were treated in isolation since information, such as landing time, pushback time and aircraft ground position, are held by different stakeholders with sometimes conflicting interests and, normally, are not shared. However, as these problems are interconnected, solutions as a result of isolated optimisation may achieve the objective of one problem but fail in the objective of the other one, missing the global optimum eventually. Potentially more energy and economic costs are thus required. In order to apply a more systematic and holistic view, this paper introduces a multi-objective integrated optimisation problem incorporating the newly proposed Active Routing concept. Built with systematic perspectives, this new model combines several elements: scheduling and routing of aircraft, 4-Dimensional Trajectory (4DT) optimisation, runway scheduling and airport bus scheduling. A holistic economic optimisation framework is also included to support the decision maker to select the economically optimal solution from a Pareto front of technically optimal solutions. To solve this problem, a multi-objective genetic algorithm is adopted and tested on real data from an international hub airport. Preliminary results show that the proposed approach is able to provide a systematic framework so that airport efficiency, environmental assessment and economic analysis could all be explicitly optimised.

    Abstract In this study, batch tests were performed to evaluate the effects of different thermal pretreatment temperatures (55–160 °C) and durations (15–120 min) on the anaerobic digestion of kitchen waste (KW). Two commonly used approaches, namely the modified Gompertz model and the approach developed by Koch and Drewes, were applied to assess the effects of the different pretreatment parameters on the biomethane yield, lag time and hydrolysis rate constant via data fitting. The subsequent anaerobic digestion of KW pretreated at 55–120 °C presented greater efficiency, and longer treatment durations resulted in increased methane production and higher hydrolysis rate constants. These findings were obtained due to the lower nutrient loss observed in KW treated at lower temperature treatments compared with that found with higher temperature treatments. In general, the effects of thermal pretreatment on the lag phase and hydrolysis rate differed depending on the treatment parameters leading to the variations in the KW compositions. The soundness of the two model results was evaluated, and higher statistical indicators (R2) were found with the modified Gompertz model than with the approach developed by Koch and Drewes.

    Abstract Lately, the exhaust gas recycle usage, widely diffused in Diesel engines, has been adopted in SI engines as well. It is a cheap technique which allows a sound control of NO formation meanwhile it can improve engine thermodynamics. In this paper, the influence of EGR on the operation of a turbocharged spark ignition engine has been evaluated by using both experimental and numerical techniques. In particular, since knock occurrence is a crucial point in the optimization of a turbocharged SI engine, the improvement in knock resistance, at high load operation, has been assessed. First, a method for knock detection and quantification has been illustrated. Then, the influence of EGR on engine performance, octane requirement and exhaust gas temperature was measured at two different rotational speed values and WOT operation. Since EGR has produced a drop in engine performance (between 10% and 13%) and an increase in knock resistance, a new set of main control variables has been determined in order to restore the original torque level while achieving a significant decrease in specific fuel consumption (between 6% and 11%). At the end, numerical analyses of engine combustion, aimed to explain the results of experimental investigations, have been carried out and a summary is reported in the paper.

    The multi-effect distillation with thermal vapour compression (MED-TVC) desalination system is efficient to produce freshwater. The steam ejector performance is not fully understood as the phase transition has been ignored in many studies. The present work develops a two-phase condensing flow model to assess the steam ejector performance considering nonequilibrium condensation phenomena. The transition of the flow structure from an under-expanded flow to an over-expanded flow in the steam ejector is investigated in detail. We present that the maximum Mach number can reach 4.02 in the under-expanded flow, which is weakened to 2.88 in the over-expanded flow. The steam undergoes several expansion-compression processes in the steam ejector in the under-expanded flow, which induces the formation and evaporation of massive droplets. In the over-expanded flow, the steam is compressed and then expanded after leaving the primary nozzle and the condensation process is not observed in mixing and constant sections. The increasing suction chamber pressure significantly improves the entrainment ratio while leading to an increasing entropy loss coefficient. The entrainment ratio is improved from 0.25 for the under-expanded flow to 1.69 for the over-expanded flow, while the entropy loss increases from 0.081 for the under-expanded flow to 0.29 for the over-expanded flow. This indicates that the transition of the flow structure from an under-expanded flow to an over-expanded flow can entrain more steam from the last effect while causes more entropy losses in a steam ejector for the MED-TVC desalination system.
