Cities are responsible for a great amount of CO2 emissions related to transportation (CBS). However, the greatest amount of CO2 is caused by private transport and is mainly associated with peri-urban (the peri-urban area is a common place to live for the natural environment and also near accessibility to city facilities) and rural areas due to...

This thesis titled "Addressing voltage sag contribution of an optimally sized Industrial Hybrid Power System" introduces a framework for sizing an industrial Hybrid Power System (HPS) to minimise Cost and CO2 emissions relative to connecting the industrial site directly to the grid with the help of a genetic algorithm, specifically NSGA-II. The...

CO2 flooding is a widely employed method for enhancing oil recovery. However, it faces challenges stemming from differences in viscosity and density between oil and CO2, leading to poor sweep efficiency. This can result in issues such as viscous fingering, channelling, and gravity segregation, causing premature breakthroughs and excessive gas...

Of all the greenhouse gases (GHGs), carbon dioxide (CO2) has been the target of most climate recovery efforts as it is the most abundantly emitted GHG by mass. In fact, in 2015 a legally binding international treaty was adopted by 196 parties in Paris, France to constrain the anthropogenic warming to 1.5-2.0˚C above the pre-industrial level. In...

The unprecedented rise in CO2 concentration in the atmosphere, and the accompanying rise in global temperature, has created the need for the development of environmentally friendly sources of energy. A very promising line of research focuses in the development of Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) technologies; through which carbon-neutral...

In order to supply the demand of oil, enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques are nowadays widely applied in the oil recovery industry to maximize reservoir sweep efficiencies. CO2-EOR method has been largely used in the petroleum industry for several decades, which can contribute to the reduction of global greenhouse gas emission through CO2...

Carbon capture and utilization (CCU) is an emerging technology for reducing the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere and to limit the negative effects on the global warming. Different from carbon capture and storage (CCS), in CCU the carbon captured from point sources or direct from air is processed to valuable carbon containing products. Several...

The Port of Rotterdam is developing a hydrogen and CO2 pipeline bundle for industry in NRW. By applying a Multi-Criteria Analysis to this case, a model is created that evaluates this pipeline bundle against the criteria of the industry in North Rhine-Westphalia. The system analysis is used as the basis for the model, industry objectives are used...

Interest in powered flight on Mars has been growing in recent years, and as such new developments are being made in determining the effects the Martian atmosphere has on the flow physics and performance, specifically with regards to similarity parameters: the Reynolds number & the Mach number. This paper aimed to investigate whether the...

Since the introduction of SF6 in the 1950s, gas-insulated high voltage circuit breakers and Gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) have improved considerably, in particular concerning required drive energy for operation, compactness, and reliability. Nevertheless, high voltage insulation design has become increasingly challenging in recent years....

Global warming is one of the most significant concerns for human beings today in the 21st century. Under this circumstance, countries and regions around the world are taking action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. China, as the world's largest emitter, plays an important role in reducing carbon emissions worldwide. This paper aims to find the...

The province of South Holland is a key player in the global food economy. However, its agrifood sector is currently generating unwanted outputs. CO<sub>2 </sub>emissions are the largest and most problematic output flow of this sector, causing negative externalities such as climate change and sea-level rise. Actors producing the CO<sub>2</sub>...

Rapid industrialization and use of carbon based fuels has caused a drastic increase in the atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> levels in the last few decades. The rising anthropogenic CO<sub>2</sub> levels pose a significant threat to the environment as evidenced by the increase in the mean global temperature levels, and the rising ocean levels. To...

In recent years a return of supersonic transportation has begun with companies looking to launch supersonic aircraft in the coming decade. However, supersonic environmental regulations are still based on Concorde. This thesis looks to predict the performance of new supersonic aircraft for ICAO through a low-fidelity program with a set of climate...

This paper gives an insight in strategies for implementing, processing and producing Miscanthus x Giganteus, or Elephant grass as it is mistakenly called, on a mid-large scale in the Parkstad Region. The area is rooted in agriculture because of fertile löss soil. There have always been a tight bond between the villages and surrounding land. This...

The shipping industry accounts for a significant share in global GHG emissions. Especially since Business as Usual (BaU) scenario studies project that the emissions due to shipping could increase by 50 [%] to 250 [%] in the period to 2050 (IMO, 2015), shipowners face a potential regulatory threat. Major climate regulations for shipping already...

One of the most important challenges facing academic, industrial and policy-making sectors is meeting with the increasing energy demand while preserving the affordability of the energy and maintaining the quality of the planet earth (including the environment, specially by reducing its greenhouse gas footprint). This global challenge demands for...

One of the methods of reducing the amount of CO2 in the air is CO2 sequestration by dissolving the gas underground in an aquifer. In practice,there will be impurity gases in the injected CO2 stream or in the aquifer, which influence the dissolution rate of the CO2 stream. This research aims at finding a method to evaluate and calculate this...
