In the late 17th century, England faced a similar situation. Timber was a vital commodity. The English used it to build ships for trade and defense, but firewood also was essential to cooking, heating and manufacturing. All the competing calls for wood caused a timber shortage, which led to...
Uzbekistan's gas production has been declining, forcing citizens to rely on coal, wood, and animal manure for heating and cooking, despite the country having abundant gas reserves. The increased use of coal and illegal tree felling for firewood are causing significant environmental damage an...
Natural gas is supplied to homes, where it is used for such purposes as cooking in natural gas-powered ranges and/or ovens, natural gas-heated clothes dryers, heating/cooling and central heating. Natural gas is a major feedstock for the production of ammonia, via the Haber process, for use...
Global demand for food is expected to nearly double by 2050. Alternative proteins (AP) have been proposed as a sustainable solution to provide food security as natural resources become more depleted. However, the growth and consumer intake of AP remains
of little more than 20 percent. They are also expensive to manufacture and buy. Solar heating systems use flat panels to capture the suns warmth to heat domestic hot water with large commercial installations using mirrors to reflect the suns heat onto a central heat absorber for maximum ...
In the central heating project of Luanchuan County, Henan Province, the application of ZOZEN SZS series gas-fired hot water boiler not only assisted Luanchuan County Thermal Energy Co., Ltd. to improve the service quality, but also vigorously promoted the clean heating work of the county....
For example, gasoline equivalent gallon (GEG) is defined as the amount of alternative fuel it takes to equal the energy content of one liquid gallon of gasoline, which is 114,000BTU lower heating values per gallon, so it is usually used as the functional unit to characterize different fuel ...
Solar thermodynamic heating systems use solar energy to heat water in the home. Thermodynamic solar panels absorb the environmental heat around themeselves to heat up water for a range of different uses, from domestic hot water to home central heating systems, to swimming pool heating. Thermodynamic...
HEGIT, is used to investigate four key sets of scenarios for the future of the gas grid using the UK as a case study: (a) complete electrification of heating; (b) conversion of the existing gas grid to deliver hydrogen; (c) a hybrid heat pump system; and (d) a greener gas grid....
