Multidisciplinary approach for the sustainable utilization of medium-low temperature geothermal resources

open access: yes, 2013
A growing interest in the applications of the medium-low temperature geothermal resources can be observed, but often a reference frame in this field does not exist. Different backgrounds are involved in the design and optimization of geothermal projects:

Energy Balancing of Electrochemical Alternatives to the Solvay Process

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
To overcome the CaCl2 and CO2 emissions custom to the conventional Solvay process in soda ash production, electrochemically based alternatives were investigated. In particular, the mass‐ and energy balances for chlor‐alkali electrolysis and bipolar electrodialysis‐based processes are discussed comprehensively in the presented work.

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

A Study of High‐Emission Industries: How Policy, Strategy, and Technology Shape Corporate Social Responsibility Toward Carbon Neutrality

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extant carbon neutrality (CN) literature largely offers macro‐ or meso‐level analyses, providing limited insights into implementation experiences that could inform granular policymaking and industry strategies. To address this gap, we examine the lived CN experiences of firms in the transportation, energy, manufacturing, and construction ...

Geothermal Well Systems

open access: yes, 2013
Geothermal well systems utilize the thermal energy of clean groundwater of hydraulically highly conductive aquifers with water tables close to the surface. The thermal energy of water produced from the well can be extracted by means of heat pumps. Such systems are also called two-well-systems, water–water-heat-pump-systems, or groundwater heat pump ...
