Green Energy and Technology

Energy Management, Volume One

Green Transition

This book investigates in detail piezoelectric energy harvesting (PEH) technology, assessing its potential us to replace conventional electrochemical batteries with kinetic energy harvesters as sustainable power supplies in wireless sensor network (WSN) devices and mobile electronics, which are originally exposed to ambient vibration. Studies on PEH have attracted engineers and scientists from various disciplines, such as electrical, mechanical, materials, civil and biomedical engineering. Pursuing a holistic approach, the book establishes a fundamental framework for this topic, while emphasizing the importance of integrated analysis and the significant influence of circuit issues in the design and optimization of PEH systems. This approach will help readers from different disciplines recognize the essential aspects of and milestones towards the optimization of PEH systems in practice. The book is intended for undergraduate and graduate students who are interested in energy harvesting technology, researchers investigating kinetic energy harvesting systems, and structure/circuit design engineers working on self-powered WSNs or other energy harvesting applications.

Integrated Analysis and Implementation

Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting Systems

Using classic thermodynamic principles as the point of departure, this book supplies the tools required to assess the technical viability of energy conversion processes.&nbsp;A new concept, viz. the exergetic (useful energy) recovery factor is introduced&nbsp;that measures net fraction of the extracted useful energy with respect to the initial exergy of the energy resource.&nbsp; With respect to conventional measures, the exergetic recovery factor can be negative, which indicates that more input exergy is required than extracted.&nbsp; A detailed description of the method will be given by applying it both to fossil fuel based energy resources and renewable energy resources. In addition a simplified procedure is given that gives the non-specialist reader the opportunity to judge both conventional and non-conventional energy resources. &nbsp;The case studies discussed comprise the conventional use of fossil fuel (oil gas and coal) the non-conventional use of fossil fuels (shale gas, underground coal gasification) and non-fossil fuel energy resources like geothermal, solar and wind. The book is an ideal guide for those engaged in the transition from fossil-based fuels to renewable and sustainable energy sources and who want to introduce technically viable new energy extraction technologies, which have a reduced carbon footprint.

An Easy to Use Methodology to Assess Energy Projects

Exergetic Recovery Factors of Energy Resources

This book provides a unique multi- and interdisciplinary approach to energy conversion technologies by shedding light on the topic from both technological and ethical perspectives. It applies these concepts to examples of engineering problems related to energy conversion – an internal combustion engine and a fuel cell – in order to give the reader a clear idea of how to implement the approaches and do the work. The first part is an introduction to thermodynamics, which is an important concept for engineers when describing and analyzing energy conversion processes in terms of their efficiency. The book goes on to discuss the concepts of exergy analysis and life cycle assessment while taking environmental aspects into account, particularly the formation of pollutants. The second part introduces the ethical terminology and describes global and environmental risks associated with energy conversion, as well as aspects of sustainability. The book is based on an introductory lecture on energytechnologies for undergraduate engineering students. However, the explanation of the various concepts remains illustrative, avoiding a more complex mathematical or philosophical treatment of the subject. Therefore, this book provides a modern but timeless introduction to energy conversion technologies that is well suited for the generally interested reader.

Nachhaltige Energiespeicher - ein kompakter Einstieg für Studierende und Ingenieure Energiespeicher sind ein essentieller Bestandteil von Energiesystemen, um eine verlässliche Energieversorgung zu gewährleisten. Dies gilt insbesondere für erneuerbare Energien. Dabei sollen die Speichertechnologien selbst der Nachhaltigkeit nicht entgegenstehen. Dieses Buch richtet sich an Studierende der Elektro-, Umwelt- und Energietechnik sowie F&amp;E-Ingenieure, die vor der Herausforderung stehen, umweltverträgliche Energiespeicher zu entwickeln, die zugleich wirtschaftlich rentabel und gesellschaftlich akzeptiert sind. Ausgehend von den physikalisch-chemischen Grundlagen der verschiedenen Speichertechnologien werden Funktionsweise, Anwendung und Komponenten folgender Speichersysteme erläutert: - Mechanische Energiespeicher: Pumpspeicher, Druckluftspeicher - Chemische Energiespeicher: Wasserstofftechnik, Methanisierung, biogene und synthetische Kraftstoffe - Elektrochemische Energiespeicher: Batterien und Akkumulatoren, Brennstoffzellen und Redox-Flow-Systeme - Thermische Energiespeicher: sensible Wärmespeicher, Latentwärmespeicher, Sorptionsspeicher Neben den funktionalen Zusammenhängen werden die ökologischen, ökonomischen und sozialen Aspekte der Speichertechnologien dargelegt. Anhand eines Anforderungskataloges wird gezeigt, wie sich die Nachhaltigkeit eines Speichersystems bewerten lässt. Praktische Beispiele für nachhaltige Energiespeicher, z. B. Speicher für die Dunkelflaute, klimafreundliche Fahrzeuge und Solare Inselsysteme oder alternative Kraftstoffe für den Flugverkehr, veranschaulichen, wie sich eine ganzheitliche Energiewende realisieren lässt.

What can one city tell us about the global textile waste problem? This Open Access study is the first detailed ethnography of clothing waste infrastructures that starts where the problem starts - the Global North. Based on more than 100 interviews, cultural anthropologist Heike Derwanz follows the journey of fast fashion in Hamburg, Germany: starting with two women from different socio-economic backgrounds sorting through their wardrobes, travelling through local flea markets, eBay, church clothes banks, upcycling brands and recycling sites, only to end up in homes and waste heaps in the Global South. Bringing together human agents such as designers, social workers and vintage sellers with objects from containers, plastic sacks and internet platforms to piles of sorted textiles, this on-the-ground cultural study reveals how the global economic system of fast fashion shapes local infrastructures entangled in everyday lives. Combining material culture, waste studies and economic perspectives to scrutinize the so-called circular economy of today's global textile recycling market, Derwanz investigates what agency modern consumers really have in the lifecycle of their clothes.
