Remanufacturing and Energy Savings

Environmental Science & Technology, 2011
Remanufactured products that can substitute for new products are generally claimed to save energy. These claims are made from studies that look mainly at the differences in materials production and manufacturing. However, when the use phase is included, the situation can change radically.

E-SAVE: Saving energy by smart serves

2012 IEEE International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM), 2012
The Smart Grid holds promise for transforming the behavior of individuals and communities towards a more efficient and greener use of electric power. There is a growing demand for non-intrusive monitoring of energy consumption behavior at multiple scales and also for autonomous energy saving opportunities for both individuals and communities.

Store energy and save energy

Science, 2021
Exoskeletons Many devices have been developed to harvest energy from walking or running, but their use often comes at cost to the wearer in the form of increased metabolic demand. Shepertycky et al. designed a device that can harvest mechanical energy from a natural walking gait and convert it to useable electrical energy while also reducing the ...

Saving energy by saving materials

Physics Bulletin, 1977
In Dr A Kelly's opinion article 'Saving energy with inorganic solids' in the June 1977 issue of Physics Bulletin (p250) he points out the low energy content of cheap inorganics such as sand and portland cement. These are not only cheap in energy terms, they are also cheap in current financial terms.

Discuss on Building Energy Saving and Energy Saving Materials

Advanced Materials Research, 2012
With the design concept of “people-oriented” put forward, the residential comfort requirements which are put forward by people are high increasingly, and building energy consumption increases correspondingly. According to statistics, at present our country building energy consumption accounts for about 30%of total national energy consumption, and which

Saving Energy versus Saving Materials

Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2000
Summary To reduce energy consumption and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions in housing construction, the energy‐intensive processes and life‐cycle stages should be identified and integrated.

Energy saving in flight formation

Nature, 2001
Many species of large bird fly together in formation, perhaps because flight power demands and energy expenditure can be reduced when the birds fly at an optimal spacing, or because orientation is improved by communication within groups. We have measured heart rates as an estimate of energy expenditure in imprinted great white pelicans (Pelecanus ...
