Commercial Flat Roof - Case Study

Commercial flat roofing needs a lot of protection from climate extremes. A baking sun not only delivers severely high temperatures, it also cascades down ultra violet light that is also very damaging over time. Where cost was a sharply limiting factor decades ago, tar was a simple solution but, as the benzenes and other aromatics were driven off, it would crack and ultimately fail, usually within ...

Desulfurization and reduction of siloxanes in biogas

Reducing the carbon footprint of our society is essential. This can be achieved by capturing and confining anthropogenic CO2 emissions, as well as by replacing fossil fuels with renewable fuels. MCFCs (Molten Carbonate Fuel Cells) are the only ones capable of doing both. Thanks to their principle of operation, CO2 can be extracted from a gas stream on the cathode side and fuels such as biogas ...

Fired-up in Eastern Ontario: Responsible Energy gets go-ahead to build...

There was much criticism in the summer of 2013 when the Region of Durham held a celebration over the opening of its energy-from-waste facility. I did not criticize them, knowing the pain and effort many of the staff and politicians went through to get the facility built. If it had been a landfill solution vs. an incinerator, a party would have also been deserved. The fact of the matter is that ...

Shredding of RDF, TDF and SRF

Energy recovery via RDF shredder in a power plant producing from refuse-derived fuels is prevalent in 1990. Tons of waste dormant in landfills are not reusable or recyclable but can be a great source of fuel because they contain a high caloric value. Similar to RDF shredder, TDF shredding and SRF shredding use two shaft shredders to downsize the waste. Understand MSW/RDF/TDF/SRF MSW: Abbreviation ...

Heating Electrification: Policies to Drive Ground-Source Heat Pump Adoption

Executive Summary Ground-source heat pumps (GSHPs) are typically the most efficient form of heating and cooling for buildings. For every unit of electricity a GSHP system consumes, it produces roughly 3-4 units of equivalent heat (or cooling), thanks to the solar energy naturally stored underground. Because of these efficiencies, GSHPs can provide significant cost savings in the effort to ...
