description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Part of book or chapter of book 2008 ItalyPublisher:Elsevier BV Authors: Jiri Masojidek; Giuseppe Torzillo;Wild microalgae (prokaryotic and eukaryotic photosynthetic microorganisms) - phytoplankton - is at the base of the food chain, supporting aquatic primary production. Microalgae are an ideal platform for the large-scale production of biomass because they are fast-growing, solar-powered 'biofactories' with low nutrient requirements. The variety of high-value bioproducts comes from microalgal species due to their wide physiological and functional diversity. Over the last 60 years, microalgal biotechnology has shown a range of applications: from the traditional extensive biomass production in human and animal nutrition, soil conditioning in agriculture, technologies for waste-water treatment, products for cosmetics and pharmacy, and most recently to the possible production of a 'third' generation of biofuels.

However, the widespread use of EVs and their large-scale integration into the energy system will present several operational and technological hurdles. In the energy industry, an innovative solution known as the EVs smart parking lot (SPL) is introduced to handle EV charging and discharging electricity and energy supply challenges. This paper investigates social equity access and mobile charging stations (MCSs) for EVs, where the owner of MCSs is the EV parking lot. Accordingly, a new self-scheduling model for SPLs is presented in this paper that incorporates scheduling of the MCSs as temporary charging infrastructures while considering social equity access and optimizes SPL energy generation and storage schedule. The main objectives of this research are to (i) develop MCSs accessibility measures and quantify the equity impacts of MCSs locations by modeling prioritized demand based on several indices; (ii) determine the optimal set-points of SPL components (i.e., combined heat and power (CHP), photovoltaic system, electrical and heat-energy storage, and MCSs) to manage electrical peak demand and to maximize the economic benefits of SPLs. Results indicate that the proposed demand prioritization function model can meet the required EV charging demands for prioritized events, and the self-scheduling model for SPLs satisfies the charging demand of the EVs in the SPL location. Also, the social equity access to the EV charging stations is satisfied by analyzing the operation of MCSs around the prioritized demand of the prioritized events and social equity access indices.

The current fashion design, production, and consumption system, known as ‘fast fashion’, is characterized by the manufacturing of low-quality garments in a short period of time carried out in developing countries. In parallel with the deficits in social responsibility and human rights, the prevailing ‘take-make-dispose’ system in the fashion industry is one of the main causes of environmental pollution that concerns the climate change, scarcity of natural resources and health problems for the living beings. Due to these facts, discussions on Circular Design strategies – for waste reduction, components recycling, and materials reuse – became increasingly relevant throughout the globe. This paper’s aspiration is to outline a perspective towards a Circular Fashion. The concept of the Design for Sustainability requires a holistic view throughout de-signing strategies as well as the establishment of cyclical systems for the production site. Notwithstanding, the efficient integration of social and cultural dimensions are vital for Sustainable Fashion’s triumph.

Kwiatkowski; Irina Stipanovic Oslakovic; Herbert ter Maat; Andreas Hartmann; +2 AuthorsKyle P. Kwiatkowski; Irina Stipanovic Oslakovic; Herbert ter Maat; Andreas Hartmann; Paul Chinowsky; G. P. M. R. Dewulf;Changes in weather patterns pose a threat to the serviceability and long-term performance of roads, and porous asphalt (PA) roads are particularly sensitive to the freezing-thawing (FT) phenomenon. The main objective of this research is to assess the impact of climate change, particularly freezing and thawing cycles, on PA. Climate models predict changes in air temperature, not pavement temperature. To predict the climate change impact on pavements performance, this requires first establishing a relationship between air and road temperature and a correlation between pavement performance and FT cycles. This project focuses on the Netherlands, where PA pavement use has become mandatory, and recent severe winters have increased the discussion about the cold weather performance of porous asphalt and the potential challenges of changing winter weather patterns. When considering long-term changes in climate, the cost impacts of freeze-thaw on PA pavement are predicted to vary regionally and in most areas reach a point in the middle of the century when a reactive wait-and-see approach is more advantageous than proactive adaptation. Further research is suggested to refine the relationship between observed damage and freeze-thaw impacts on PA pavement.

Patel;Abstract In its 2016 Heating and Cooling Strategy, the European Commission (EC) highlighted the strategic importance of heating demand for the energy demand reduction, and further noted that District Heat Networks (DHN) can play an important role in decarbonising this sector. This study applied a thermal atlas approach to map the potential for district heat networks in Switzerland. It extended existing methods with a novel approach to estimating linear thermal demand density in DHN at a national scale. DHN potential for current-generation high temperature networks as well as cutting-edge low temperature networks were compared for current building space heating and hot water demand as well as for two demand reduction scenarios. The method was tested by comparing its results to those of a local engineering study conducted for a Swiss municipality (Brig-Glis). The potential percentage of demand supplied by high temperature DHN was shown to decrease from 66% to 41% with energy saving while the potential for low temperature systems increased significantly from 2.1% to 42%. The percentage of heat demand covered by heat networks decreases less than the percentage of buildings covered, reflecting the strength of heat networks for supplying large fractions of thermal demand in geographically confined areas.

Reducing agronomic input supply can significantly contribute to decrease the environmental impact of bioenergy cropping systems. Currently, there is a renewed industrial interest in non-food oil crops for different end-uses application. Among species from Brassica genus, Brassica carinata A. Braun is an interesting winter annual crop in warm and semi-arid environments and may provide a rotation alternative with cereal crops, sourcing non-edible oil for the industry, additional incomes to the farmers and soil benefits. The present study compared four Brassica carinata lines (GID-6165, GIP-6164, GID-6091, GID-6084) under two different organic fertilization levels (80 and 160 kg N ha-1) in a semiarid Mediterranean area. These four lines have not been tested in Southern Italy previously, nor under the present low-input cultivation practices in semiarid Mediterranean area. Main findings showed a significant fertilization effect (P=0.05), with the high-input providing higher seed yields and harvest index than low-input. There was no genotype effect, however, the gap between potential (i.e. seed yield at the programmed plant density) and actual yields was rather high for GID-6165 and GID-6080. On the other hand, genotype had the largest effect on the thousand seed weight and the residual biomass yield. In general, GID-6091 and GID-6165 reached seed physiological maturity earlier than GID-6084 and GID-6164 lines. The present study proved that improved B. carinata lines can be grown in semiarid Mediterranean area under low-input organic systems, providing satisfactory seed yields. However, seedbed preparation was noticed to be key to narrow the gap between potential and actual seed yield, particularly under the present clay soil.

Abstract The implementation of energy efficiency measures is an effective way to gain energy savings in the Italian residential sector. This paper assesses the embodied energy impact related to the envelope insulation and evaluates the energy and carbon payback of the efficiency measures. The proposed method consists of (1) an estimation of the baseline operational energy consumption, (2) simulations of realistic retrofit solutions and, (3) the assessment of the ‘retrofitting’ embodied energy and the energy and carbon payback time calculation. The payback is based on the comparison between the saved operational energy and the embodied energy of the materials selected for insulation. Ten Italian cities are analysed, and the results show a deep dependence on the climate zone. In Northern Italian cities, envelope insulation gains relevance as the energy and carbon payback periods are shorter, about 3 years against the 84 years for the Southern city of Palermo. The optimal thickness is estimated for the city of Milan considering the building’s typology, the insulation materials, and the energy payback. This study shows how the total energy savings can be used as a criterion to obtain design indications.

This book gives insights into the agricultural policies in several countries located in different continents. It is of interest to students, researchers, and policy and decision makers. Given the particularities of agriculture, agricultural policies are indispensable for an adjusted development of farms according to the strategic objectives of each country, namely the socio-economic and environmental ones. The question that often arises is whether the practical effects of the various policy measures are in accordance with their design and what is the effect of these policy instruments among many other causes of structural and technological change. The aim of this book is to describe the main agricultural policies that have been implemented in countries such as the United States of America, Brazil, China, India, South Africa, Australia, as well as the European Union. It also aims to analyse the real impact of these policies on the structural and technological changes of farms in the European Union. As its methodology, the book considers bibliometric analysis, literature review and statistical approaches.

The reduction of the dioxin levels in the exhausts of today waste-to-energy plants relies on the control of the thermo-fluid-dynamic processes occurring within the combustion chamber, rather than on policies aimed at restricting the amount of chlorine in the waste material to be treated. This is a consequence of the fact that waste-to-energy plants currently receive the bulk of discarded PVC and other chlorine sources that are deliberately burned in order to increase the waste heating value. Indeed, severe law regulations are into force in many industrialised countries, posing constraints on the value of some relevant in-chamber thermo-fluid-dynamic variables, such as temperature and residence time of the gases resulting from the combustion process, whose accurate experimental monitoring is extremely expensive and difficult to achieve. The present work analyses the shortcomings of the methods generally employed in full scale plants for the verification of the temperature and residence time of gases produced during the combustion process, and presents the advantages of using a new procedure developed by authors, based on the numerical simulation of the waste combustion process to optimise monitoring of the quantities of interest. The verification of the developed model, which accounts for both the solid and the gaseous phases, and for the various modes of heat and mass transfer between these phases, is obtained through a comparison with the results of an experimental campaign carried out on a full scale plant in Italy. The temperature distribution in the combustion chamber is calculated considering various waste compositions, and both forced and mixed convection. In fact, it is also shown that neglecting buoyancy effects may lead to appreciable errors.

Kada govorimo o energetskoj učinkovitosti u zgradarstvu, to obuhvaća sljedeće pozitivne mjere: korištenje manje količine energije za grijanje i za hlađenje prostora, za rasvjetu i ventilaciju, upotrebu obnovljivih izvora energije, uz zadržavanje udobnosti životnog prostora, ali i štiteći okoliš kojega smo nedjeljivi dio. Tijekom pisanja diplomskog rada „Projekt energetske obnove višestambene zgrade“ napravljen je pregled aktualnih Zakona i Pravilnika u skladu s kojima je izrađen i cjelokupni projekt koji uključuje brojne mjere kojima se postiže energetska učinkovitost dotad energetski neučinkovite višestambene zgrade. Riječ je o višestambenoj zgradi koja je sagrađena 1973. godine i koja se nalazi u Šibeniku. Temeljem toga predložene su atraktivne mjere za postizanje energetske učinkovitosti uz troškovnik. In modern present, energy efficiency and, above all, thermal insulation of buildings is an important topic. When we talk about energy efficiency in buildings, this includes the following positive measures: the use of less energy for space heating and cooling, lighting and ventilation, the use of renewable energy, while maintaining the comfort of living space, and protecting the environmnet. While writing this thesis, a review of current Laws and Ordinances was drafted in accordance with this whole project which inculdes a number of measures to achieve the energy efficiency of until then energy – inefficient multi – storey building. Attractive measures are proposed to achieve energy efficiency along with the cost estimate. It is a residential building built in 1973 and located in Šibenik.

description Publicationkeyboard_double_arrow_right Part of book or chapter of book 2008 ItalyPublisher:Elsevier BV Authors: Jiri Masojidek; Giuseppe Torzillo;Wild microalgae (prokaryotic and eukaryotic photosynthetic microorganisms) - phytoplankton - is at the base of the food chain, supporting aquatic primary production. Microalgae are an ideal platform for the large-scale production of biomass because they are fast-growing, solar-powered 'biofactories' with low nutrient requirements. The variety of high-value bioproducts comes from microalgal species due to their wide physiological and functional diversity. Over the last 60 years, microalgal biotechnology has shown a range of applications: from the traditional extensive biomass production in human and animal nutrition, soil conditioning in agriculture, technologies for waste-water treatment, products for cosmetics and pharmacy, and most recently to the possible production of a 'third' generation of biofuels.

However, the widespread use of EVs and their large-scale integration into the energy system will present several operational and technological hurdles. In the energy industry, an innovative solution known as the EVs smart parking lot (SPL) is introduced to handle EV charging and discharging electricity and energy supply challenges. This paper investigates social equity access and mobile charging stations (MCSs) for EVs, where the owner of MCSs is the EV parking lot. Accordingly, a new self-scheduling model for SPLs is presented in this paper that incorporates scheduling of the MCSs as temporary charging infrastructures while considering social equity access and optimizes SPL energy generation and storage schedule. The main objectives of this research are to (i) develop MCSs accessibility measures and quantify the equity impacts of MCSs locations by modeling prioritized demand based on several indices; (ii) determine the optimal set-points of SPL components (i.e., combined heat and power (CHP), photovoltaic system, electrical and heat-energy storage, and MCSs) to manage electrical peak demand and to maximize the economic benefits of SPLs. Results indicate that the proposed demand prioritization function model can meet the required EV charging demands for prioritized events, and the self-scheduling model for SPLs satisfies the charging demand of the EVs in the SPL location. Also, the social equity access to the EV charging stations is satisfied by analyzing the operation of MCSs around the prioritized demand of the prioritized events and social equity access indices.

The current fashion design, production, and consumption system, known as ‘fast fashion’, is characterized by the manufacturing of low-quality garments in a short period of time carried out in developing countries. In parallel with the deficits in social responsibility and human rights, the prevailing ‘take-make-dispose’ system in the fashion industry is one of the main causes of environmental pollution that concerns the climate change, scarcity of natural resources and health problems for the living beings. Due to these facts, discussions on Circular Design strategies – for waste reduction, components recycling, and materials reuse – became increasingly relevant throughout the globe. This paper’s aspiration is to outline a perspective towards a Circular Fashion. The concept of the Design for Sustainability requires a holistic view throughout de-signing strategies as well as the establishment of cyclical systems for the production site. Notwithstanding, the efficient integration of social and cultural dimensions are vital for Sustainable Fashion’s triumph.

Kwiatkowski; Irina Stipanovic Oslakovic; Herbert ter Maat; Andreas Hartmann; +2 AuthorsKyle P. Kwiatkowski; Irina Stipanovic Oslakovic; Herbert ter Maat; Andreas Hartmann; Paul Chinowsky; G. P. M. R. Dewulf;Changes in weather patterns pose a threat to the serviceability and long-term performance of roads, and porous asphalt (PA) roads are particularly sensitive to the freezing-thawing (FT) phenomenon. The main objective of this research is to assess the impact of climate change, particularly freezing and thawing cycles, on PA. Climate models predict changes in air temperature, not pavement temperature. To predict the climate change impact on pavements performance, this requires first establishing a relationship between air and road temperature and a correlation between pavement performance and FT cycles. This project focuses on the Netherlands, where PA pavement use has become mandatory, and recent severe winters have increased the discussion about the cold weather performance of porous asphalt and the potential challenges of changing winter weather patterns. When considering long-term changes in climate, the cost impacts of freeze-thaw on PA pavement are predicted to vary regionally and in most areas reach a point in the middle of the century when a reactive wait-and-see approach is more advantageous than proactive adaptation. Further research is suggested to refine the relationship between observed damage and freeze-thaw impacts on PA pavement.

Patel;Abstract In its 2016 Heating and Cooling Strategy, the European Commission (EC) highlighted the strategic importance of heating demand for the energy demand reduction, and further noted that District Heat Networks (DHN) can play an important role in decarbonising this sector. This study applied a thermal atlas approach to map the potential for district heat networks in Switzerland. It extended existing methods with a novel approach to estimating linear thermal demand density in DHN at a national scale. DHN potential for current-generation high temperature networks as well as cutting-edge low temperature networks were compared for current building space heating and hot water demand as well as for two demand reduction scenarios. The method was tested by comparing its results to those of a local engineering study conducted for a Swiss municipality (Brig-Glis). The potential percentage of demand supplied by high temperature DHN was shown to decrease from 66% to 41% with energy saving while the potential for low temperature systems increased significantly from 2.1% to 42%. The percentage of heat demand covered by heat networks decreases less than the percentage of buildings covered, reflecting the strength of heat networks for supplying large fractions of thermal demand in geographically confined areas.

Reducing agronomic input supply can significantly contribute to decrease the environmental impact of bioenergy cropping systems. Currently, there is a renewed industrial interest in non-food oil crops for different end-uses application. Among species from Brassica genus, Brassica carinata A. Braun is an interesting winter annual crop in warm and semi-arid environments and may provide a rotation alternative with cereal crops, sourcing non-edible oil for the industry, additional incomes to the farmers and soil benefits. The present study compared four Brassica carinata lines (GID-6165, GIP-6164, GID-6091, GID-6084) under two different organic fertilization levels (80 and 160 kg N ha-1) in a semiarid Mediterranean area. These four lines have not been tested in Southern Italy previously, nor under the present low-input cultivation practices in semiarid Mediterranean area. Main findings showed a significant fertilization effect (P=0.05), with the high-input providing higher seed yields and harvest index than low-input. There was no genotype effect, however, the gap between potential (i.e. seed yield at the programmed plant density) and actual yields was rather high for GID-6165 and GID-6080. On the other hand, genotype had the largest effect on the thousand seed weight and the residual biomass yield. In general, GID-6091 and GID-6165 reached seed physiological maturity earlier than GID-6084 and GID-6164 lines. The present study proved that improved B. carinata lines can be grown in semiarid Mediterranean area under low-input organic systems, providing satisfactory seed yields. However, seedbed preparation was noticed to be key to narrow the gap between potential and actual seed yield, particularly under the present clay soil.

Abstract The implementation of energy efficiency measures is an effective way to gain energy savings in the Italian residential sector. This paper assesses the embodied energy impact related to the envelope insulation and evaluates the energy and carbon payback of the efficiency measures. The proposed method consists of (1) an estimation of the baseline operational energy consumption, (2) simulations of realistic retrofit solutions and, (3) the assessment of the ‘retrofitting’ embodied energy and the energy and carbon payback time calculation. The payback is based on the comparison between the saved operational energy and the embodied energy of the materials selected for insulation. Ten Italian cities are analysed, and the results show a deep dependence on the climate zone. In Northern Italian cities, envelope insulation gains relevance as the energy and carbon payback periods are shorter, about 3 years against the 84 years for the Southern city of Palermo. The optimal thickness is estimated for the city of Milan considering the building’s typology, the insulation materials, and the energy payback. This study shows how the total energy savings can be used as a criterion to obtain design indications.

This book gives insights into the agricultural policies in several countries located in different continents. It is of interest to students, researchers, and policy and decision makers. Given the particularities of agriculture, agricultural policies are indispensable for an adjusted development of farms according to the strategic objectives of each country, namely the socio-economic and environmental ones. The question that often arises is whether the practical effects of the various policy measures are in accordance with their design and what is the effect of these policy instruments among many other causes of structural and technological change. The aim of this book is to describe the main agricultural policies that have been implemented in countries such as the United States of America, Brazil, China, India, South Africa, Australia, as well as the European Union. It also aims to analyse the real impact of these policies on the structural and technological changes of farms in the European Union. As its methodology, the book considers bibliometric analysis, literature review and statistical approaches.

The reduction of the dioxin levels in the exhausts of today waste-to-energy plants relies on the control of the thermo-fluid-dynamic processes occurring within the combustion chamber, rather than on policies aimed at restricting the amount of chlorine in the waste material to be treated. This is a consequence of the fact that waste-to-energy plants currently receive the bulk of discarded PVC and other chlorine sources that are deliberately burned in order to increase the waste heating value. Indeed, severe law regulations are into force in many industrialised countries, posing constraints on the value of some relevant in-chamber thermo-fluid-dynamic variables, such as temperature and residence time of the gases resulting from the combustion process, whose accurate experimental monitoring is extremely expensive and difficult to achieve. The present work analyses the shortcomings of the methods generally employed in full scale plants for the verification of the temperature and residence time of gases produced during the combustion process, and presents the advantages of using a new procedure developed by authors, based on the numerical simulation of the waste combustion process to optimise monitoring of the quantities of interest. The verification of the developed model, which accounts for both the solid and the gaseous phases, and for the various modes of heat and mass transfer between these phases, is obtained through a comparison with the results of an experimental campaign carried out on a full scale plant in Italy. The temperature distribution in the combustion chamber is calculated considering various waste compositions, and both forced and mixed convection. In fact, it is also shown that neglecting buoyancy effects may lead to appreciable errors.

Kada govorimo o energetskoj učinkovitosti u zgradarstvu, to obuhvaća sljedeće pozitivne mjere: korištenje manje količine energije za grijanje i za hlađenje prostora, za rasvjetu i ventilaciju, upotrebu obnovljivih izvora energije, uz zadržavanje udobnosti životnog prostora, ali i štiteći okoliš kojega smo nedjeljivi dio. Tijekom pisanja diplomskog rada „Projekt energetske obnove višestambene zgrade“ napravljen je pregled aktualnih Zakona i Pravilnika u skladu s kojima je izrađen i cjelokupni projekt koji uključuje brojne mjere kojima se postiže energetska učinkovitost dotad energetski neučinkovite višestambene zgrade. Riječ je o višestambenoj zgradi koja je sagrađena 1973. godine i koja se nalazi u Šibeniku. Temeljem toga predložene su atraktivne mjere za postizanje energetske učinkovitosti uz troškovnik. In modern present, energy efficiency and, above all, thermal insulation of buildings is an important topic. When we talk about energy efficiency in buildings, this includes the following positive measures: the use of less energy for space heating and cooling, lighting and ventilation, the use of renewable energy, while maintaining the comfort of living space, and protecting the environmnet. While writing this thesis, a review of current Laws and Ordinances was drafted in accordance with this whole project which inculdes a number of measures to achieve the energy efficiency of until then energy – inefficient multi – storey building. Attractive measures are proposed to achieve energy efficiency along with the cost estimate. It is a residential building built in 1973 and located in Šibenik.
