Estimating the impact of carbon inefficiency and overuse of energy on the economics of water companies: A case study for England and Wales

Sustainable Development, Volume 32, Issue 4, Page 3601-3611, August 2024.
Abstract In the face of climate change, it becomes crucial to motivate action and policies within water companies towards achieving carbon neutrality. Estimating the economic consequences of inaction can be a compelling catalyst for change. In this study, the carbon inefficiency and overuse of energy among a selection of English and Welsh water ...

Annual Optical Performance of a Solar CPC Photoreactor with Multiple Catalyst Support Configurations by a Multiscale Model

International Journal of Photoenergy, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
In this work, the seasonal and yearly optical performance of supported catalyst CPC solar photocatalytic reactors has been theoretically analyzed. A detailed model for the optical response of the anatase catalyst films is utilized, based on the characteristic matrix method, together with Monte Carlo ray tracing simulations.

Rainfall and Hydrograph Styles in Ephemeral Streams of the Drylands of Patagonia (South America–Argentina)

Water Resources Research, Volume 60, Issue 8, August 2024.
Abstract Ephemeral streams in dry environments can convey high intensity sediment‐laden flash floods. The study of these events is quite difficult due to remote locations with limited accessibility, unexpected events, rough weather conditions and safety concerns.

Boosted Photocatalytic Activity of Zn/Al‐Based Layered Double Hydroxides Through Cobalt Incorporation for Phenol Degradation

ChemistrySelect, Volume 9, Issue 14, April 12, 2024.
Zn/Al and Zn/Al−Co(0.3) hydrotalcites were synthesized via the co‐precipitation method. After the calcination process, both materials exhibited photocatalytic activity in phenol degradation. However, the incorporation of cobalt promotes the formation of surface defects such as oxygen vacancies, favoring the adsorption of oxygen species and enhancing ...

Performance of low impact development on peak flow reduction in an urban system

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 427-441, April 2024.
Abstract This study proposes an approach to evaluate the efficiency of low impact development (LID) in reducing urban runoff using a rainfall generator to disaggregate daily rainfall into sub‐hourly rainfall data, which are used as input of a hydrological model at the urban watershed scale.
