In this work, highland barley straw is recycled and made into activated carbon using hydrothermal carbonization and alkaline activation processes in which the dependence of the product properties on the activation temperature, as one of the critical parameters, is intensively investigated. Under the optimum conditions at an activation temperature of 1100 °C, activated carbon in the form of mesoporous structure and polycrystalline graphite was produced with a specific surface area as large as 1906 m2/g, which is superior to that of commercial products. To investigate the absorption capacity of the prepared samples for pollutants in water, such as heavy metals and organics, potassium dichromate and methylene blue were utilized as the simulated pollutants. The removal efficiency of Cr6+ and methylene blue in water reached 90.3 % within eight hours and 87.7 % within four hours, respectively, and this demonstrated an excellent absorption capacity for activated carbon converted from agricultural waste. Th e successful fabrication of activated carbon with a super large specific surface area and remarkable adsorption ability derived from highland barley straw through a hydrothermal carbonization and alkaline treatment demonstrated the feasibility of the “turning waste into wealth” recycling strategy. It has also shown great potential for use in environmental protection applications, especially for water purification.","PeriodicalId":14118,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Low-carbon Technologies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43738372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The desalination technique considered in this study consists of a saltwater film falling along the inner wall of a vertical channel heated uniformly by a constant heat flux. The equations governing the flow and the heat and mass transfer associated with the boundary and interface conditions are solved numerically using the finite difference method. We considered two values of salinity, 10 g.kg-1 and 39 g.kg-1 which correspond respectively to brackish water and sea water with different types and volume fractions of nanoparticles in order to study the effect of the combination of these parameters on the enhancement of desalination by evaporation. The results showed that the evaporation process by injecting nanoparticles into salt water improves due to its positive effect on thermophysical properties. In addition, Al2O3 is significantly better for evaporative desalination than TiO2 and copper. Moreover, we can achieve the same heat and mass transfer performance by using 2% alumina instead of 4% TiO2.","PeriodicalId":14118,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Low-carbon Technologies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44175174","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis shows that seasonal variations exist in all the selected locations indicating two distinct seasons: the dry and wet seasons with varying lengths from north to south of the country. Due to its high global radiation levels (21–25 MJ/m2/day), the North is a desirable location for solar-thermal systems. Also, the high monthly mean temperature variations (about 18°C), low relative humidity (15%) and constant wind speeds (4m/s) experienced in the first three months of the year aid the installation of wind energy systems and the application of evaporative cooling techniques that reduce the thermal load and energy consumption of buildings. On the other side, the high relative humidity (80%) and mediocre radiation values derived almost throughout the year in the South-west, South-east and South-south regions discourages the extensive application of evaporative cooling and solar energy based systems in such locations, but the moderate wind speeds (2.9 m/s) and monthly mean temperature variations associated with these regions between the first three months of the year allow for the application of natural ventilation and some passive cooling systems so as to reduce the thermal load of buildings in the regions.

By coordinating the output of each unit to optimize the scheduling of the system, the operating cost of the system can be reduced to a certain extent, and the space for new energy generation to be connected to the Internet can be increased. Aiming at the characteristics of electric, heat and gas load demand of the integrated energy system of industrial low-carbon parks and the overall needs of low-carbon development, a research on the optimal scheduling of integrated energy systems in low-carbon parks based on demand response is proposed.

The experimental results show that the proposed method has lower operating cost of the integrated energy system, better economy of the integrated energy system, and can effectively improve the power supply reliability and energy saving rate of the integrated energy system.

To achieve this goal, it is important for cities to promote carbon reduction. China has implemented a low-carbon city pilot (LCP) policy since 2010 to achieve green transformative development. In this context, this study aims to assess whether the LCP policy achieves carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals. Using 2007-2019 prefecture-level panel data from China and a time-varying difference-in-difference (DID) model, we conduct a quasi-natural experiment. The empirical results show that the carbon emission intensity (CEI) is greatly reduced in cities that implemented the LCP policy. Compared with the control group, the average value of CEI of cities in the experimental group is approximately three percentage points lower, and the robustness test results prove the reliability of the baseline estimates. In addition, we examine the time lag effect and find that in the experimental group, the CEI of cities is significantly lower in the fourth year and has a tendency to gradually increase. Meanwhile, the heterogeneity analysis in this research groups the samples according to economic development, population agglomeration and resource endowment. We find that in cities with better economic development, higher population agglomeration and relatively underdeveloped resource endowment, there is a greater reduction in CEI. Finally, we conduct a mechanism test and find that in the experimental group, the CEI of cities is severely reduced due to industrial structure optimization, environmental enforcement strengthening and technological innovation capabilities enhancement.","PeriodicalId":14118,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Low-carbon Technologies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48589525","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the other hand, since MCFC consumes carbon dioxide, it can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide emissions compared to other fuel cells. Accordingly, the current paper develops and evaluates the thermodynamic, exergoeconomic and environmental analysis of a new hybrid energy process (HEP) based on a reformer MCFC stack and a biomass gasification process. A homogeneous ignition engine (HIE) and a heat recovery system are two other main units embedded in the developed HEP. In the developed cycle, MCFC and HIE produce electric energy, for which the required fuel is supplied through the obtained syngas from the biomass gasification process and the anode off-gas, respectively. The heat recovery system also leads to the establishment of the thermal balance of the energy cycle by recovering the thermal energies of the MCFC and HIE. The aim of the present work is to develop the multi-aspect evaluation of the proposed energy system toward a fruitful implementation feasibility analysis. The outcomes indicated that, the rates of electrical and thermal powers obtained from the planned HEP were equal to nearly 1112 kW and 367 kW, respectively. Further, the calculated efficiencies for electric, gross power and total energy terms were equal to 51.5%, 55.7%, and 69.9%, respectively. The developed HEP had 48% less carbon dioxide emissions compared to an petroleum-fired power plant, 15.8% less compared to a natural gas-fired plant, and approximately 63% lower compared to a coal-fired power plant.","PeriodicalId":14118,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Low-carbon Technologies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45817535","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
