Towards a sustainable water resources management in post-lignite era: the case of Western Macedonia, Greece

(Corresponding) Farmaki P., Tranoulidis A., Sotiropoulou R., Tagaris E.

Topic:

Water policy, management and society

In 2018, Public Power Corporation (PPC) employed 15,000 employees in the energy sector, mainly in lignite production, providing electricity to 6,900,000 customers in Greece. The total confirmed lignite reserves amount to 5 billion tons mostly resourced (1.8 billion tons) in the Western Macedonia...Read more

Enhanced-Electrocoagulation For Organic Matter Removal From Surface Drinking Water Sources: Operational Parameters And Energy Consumption

(Corresponding) Daraei H., Intwala P., Awad J., Bertone E., Chow C., Duan J., Stewart R., Leuuwen J.

Topic:

Water treatment

In this study, an Enhanced Electro-Coagulation (En-EC) technique is described for the removal of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) from surface drinking water sources. Assessment of the En-EC technique included investigation of the impacts of operational factors on the organic removal efficiency (R%)...Read more

Desalinated Water and Power for a Seaside Hotel: A Case Study using Off-grid Solar and Wind

Tounsi A., Ghamgui M., (Corresponding) Tadeo F.

Topic:

Environmental management and policies

A hybrid combination of solar and wind energies for a remote seaside hotel is analyzed. More specifically, a hotel in Hammamet, Tunisia, powered by photovoltaic panels and a wind turbine is evaluated, with water generated by desalination using reverse osmosis. This isolated accommodation...Read more

SIMULATION AND PERFORMANCE EVALUATION OF OWC DEVICE OPERATING IN COASTAL REGIONS

(Corresponding) Belibassakis K., Magkouris A., Rusu E.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

Wave energy converters are constantly being deployed in nearshore and coastal areas characterized by increased wave potential. The performance of the devices installed in the nearshore and coastal environment, where the sea bottom terrain may present significant variations, can be evaluated by...Read more

Utilization of paraffin wax as phase change material for solar thermal energy storage

(Corresponding) Shalaby S., Kabeel A., Fleafl A.

Topic:

Energy technologies and sustainability

In this work, a thermal energy storage system based paraffin wax as phase change material (PCM) was designed, constructed and tested when it was integrated with a solar water heater (SWH). For the purpose of comparison, the SWH was also tested when water was used as a storage medium. The system was...Read more
