Möglichkeiten der Förderung von Bodenbewusstsein durch Medien, die zum aktiven Forschen anregen – eine Expertenbefragung
(2020)
Angesichts gravierender Folgen des derzeitigen unachtsamen Umgangs mit Böden, war es Ziel dieser Arbeit, verschiedene Möglichkeiten zur Förderung von Bodenbewusstsein zu untersuchen. Dabei wurde Bezug auf die zunehmende Nutzung von Medien in unserer Gesellschaft genommen. Mit einer systematischen Übersichtsarbeit sollte zum einen herausgestellt werden, welche bodenthematischen Bildungsmedien und -projekte bereits im deutschsprachigen Raum vorzufinden sind. Mit dieser Methode konnten knapp über fünfhundert Quellen im ...

Assessing African Energy Transitions: Renewable Energy Policies, Energy Justice, and SDG 7
(2021-02-26)
Renewable energy has made significant inroads in addressing growing energy demands on the African continent. However, progress towards SDG 7 is still limited and difficult to trace. Furthermore, the results-oriented rationale of the SDGs means that both policy change and the dimension of environmental justice are not covered properly. We argue that the energy justice concept may provide a powerful tool to offset looming trade-offs and enhance the co-benefits of SDG 7 within broader transition endeavours. In doing so, ...

Development of feedback control for energy policy design to guarantee sustainable solar and wind power investment growth
(2021)
Energy transition in the power sector is one of the main pathways to achieving the climate targets. In order to stimulate renewable power development, regulatory policies play a vital role. However, these policies have so far attained only partial results or unexpected consequences due to the unsuitable designs. Therefore, the study addresses the question, “How do regulatory policies have to be designed in order to create a favorable environment for renewable power development?”
This work proposes to use feedback ...

Process and utility systems integration and optimisation for ultra-low energy milk powder production
(2017-04-26)
This study applies a Total Site Heat Integration approach in conjunction with a detailed process and utility model, to develop an innovative ultra-low energy milk powder plant design. The basis for the analysis is a state-of-the-art modern milk powder plant that requires 5265 MJ/tp of fuel and 210.5 kWh/tp (58.5 MJe/tp) of electricity. The model of the modern milk powder plant was validated against industrial data and changes to process and/or utility systems are targeted and implemented into the model to understand ...

System efficient integration of standby control and heat pump storage systems in manufacturing processes
(2019-05-24)
Prerequisite for system efficiency towards an industrial energy transition is the reducing of energy demand on the process level. In typical manufacturing systems with machine tools and washing machines, the proper design of intelligent standby control and heat pump storage system (HPS) represent high efficiency. The integration of HPS is complicated due to high non-continuity, especially when implementing a standby control system. Our approach aims at designing one single HPS for multiple heat sources and sinks. ...

Large-scale heat pumps: market potential and barriers, classification and estimation of efficiency
(2019-12-20)
Heat pumps powered by renewable electricity have a significant potential to become a critical technology to disruptively decarbonize an economy. An essential step towards this goal is the development of an accurate understanding and model of how heat pumps in large-scale implementations perform in terms of economics, energy, and the environment. In this study, the influence of system design and operating conditions on the Coefficient of Performance (COP) of large-scale (> 50 kWth) electric driven mechanical compression ...

Assessment of probabilistic distributed factors influencing renewable energy supply for hotels using Monte-Carlo methods
(2017-04-05)
This paper investigates the use of renewable energies to supply hotels in island regions. The aim is to evaluate the effect of weather and occupancy fluctuations on the sensitivity of investment criteria. The sensitivity of the chosen energy system is examined using a Monte Carlo simulation considering stochastic weather data, occupancy rates and energy needs. For this purpose, algorithms based on measured data are developed and applied to a case study on the Canary Islands.
The results underline that electricity ...

Effiziente Erdgasbereitstellung mit erneuerbaren Energien
(2022-07)
Gas-Druckregel- und Messanlagen (GDRMA) nehmen für den Erdgastransport eine wichtige Rolle als Übergabestellen zwischen den Netzabschnitten ein. Bei der Druckreduktion kommt es infolge des Joule-Thomson-Effektes zu einer Abkühlung, wodurch die Anlagentechnik vereisen und die Gasversorgung gefährdet sein kann. Um diesen gestörten Betrieb zu vermeiden, wird das Erdgas im Vorfeld der Entspannung erwärmt. Dabei fällt der damit einhergehende Wärmebedarf auf einem für erneuerbare Energieanwendungen hervorragendem ...

Abschlussbericht. EnEff:Campus: Intracting an Hochschulen
(2022-08)
The building stock of universities is characterized by high energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) (Emmerich-Rose 2016). This results in underfinancing maintenance and renovation budgets provided by the state for a long period of time. Even highly economic energy saving measures often are not realized due to a lack of personnel and financial resources. Furthermore, necessary financial means are in direct competition with research, teaching and administrative expense. At the same time the federal and ...

Grundsatzfragen der Abwärmenutzung
(2017-04)
In der Diskussion zum Thema Energieeffizienz wird regelmäßig über Abwärmenutzungstechnologien (AbWT) wie Sorptionskältemaschinen, Organic-Rankine-Cycle-Prozesse (ORC) oder Wärmepumpen diskutiert. Diese sollen eine praktikable Nutzung von Abwärme ermöglichen. Im Sinne eines Plug & Play Systems erfolgt die Ankopplung an eine Abwärmequelle und eine andere Nutzenergieform wie Strom, Kälte oder Hochtemperaturwärme kann an geeigneter Stelle wieder in den Prozess integriert werden. Doch wie lassen sich Abwärmequellen und ...
