State of the Art Review of Seasonal Sensible Heat Storage

open access: yes, 2020
This paper reviewed seasonal sensible heat storage which is the most mature storage concept from technical and economic points of view. The results showed that tank storage and pit storage have higher storage capacity and less geological requirements, while borehole storage and aquifer storage are more economically effective.

Engineering Biochar‐Derived Functional Materials for High‐Performance Supercapacitors: Design Principles, Mechanisms, and Scalable Strategies

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

The relationship between built-up areas and the spatial development of the mean maximum urban heat island in Debrecen, Hungary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The climate of built-up regions differs significantly from rural regions and the most important modifying effect of urbanization on local climate is the urban temperature excess, otherwise called the urban heat island (UHI).

Geothermal electricity generation and desalination: an integrated process design to conserve latent heat with operational improvements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A new process combination is proposed to link geothermal electricity generation with desalination. The concept involves maximizing the utilization of harvested latent heat by passing the turbine exhaust steam into a multiple effect distillation system ...

Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Biodegradability studies and contact phase trials towards a cleaner environment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process, developed in our previous study, is used for septic wastewater treatment. This high‐rate contact stabilization pre‐treatment uses typical waste streams found in wastewater treatment plants to reduce a portion of the loadings on the main treatment trains.

Seasonal High Temperature Heat Storage with Medium Deep Borehole Heat Exchangers

open access: yesEnergy Procedia, 2015
AbstractHeating of buildings requires more than 25% of the total end energy consumption in Germany. By storing excess heat from solar panels or thermal power stations of more than 110°C in summer, a medium deep borehole thermal energy storage (MD-BTES) can be operated on temperature levels above 45°C.

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).
