Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technology for Stationary Applications
Unconventional energy sources have gained and will continue to gain an increasing share of energy systems around the world. Today, hydrogen is recognized as a non-polluting energy carrier because it does not contribute to global warming if it is produced from renewable sources. Hydrogen is already part of today's chemical industry, but as an energy source, its rare advantages can only be obtained with the help of technologies. Currently, the fuel cell is considered the cleanest sustainable energy. With the development of fuel cells, hydrogen-based energy generation becomes a reality. Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technology for Stationary Applications is an essential publication that focuses on the adv...
Circular Economy Implementation for Sustainability in the Built Environment
The construction sector plays an essential role in the global economy, using many exhaustible natural resources, most of which are renewable in low percentages. Moving towards a circular economy is essential because optimizing the consumption of materials and energy contributes to the development of an economic system that is independent, more competitive, and more resilient in the face of economic and social crises and various environmental factors. The current “take, make, and dispose” model of the economy is unsustainable, so a shift in thinking towards a circular economy is necessary. This circular economy is an economic model that minimizes the use of natural resources by selecting ...
Clean Technologies and Sustainable Development in Civil Engineering
Energy, economic, and social concerns are becoming increasingly important due to climate change, threats to energy security, depletion of traditional resources, and threats to human health. Integration of green resources and the adoption of clean technologies are of strategic importance for civil engineering. To preserve natural resources and promote responsible engineering, it is essential to be aware of the clean technologies emerging in the field of civil engineering. Clean Technologies and Sustainable Development in Civil Engineering addresses clean technologies for the sustainable future of practical applications from civil engineering. It presents the latest research results and state-of-the-art methodologies that address top concerns and establish cooperative research and development worldwide. Covering topics such as green urbanization, sustainable waste management, and solar thermal energy, this premier reference source is an indispensable resource for civil engineers, scientists, environmentalists, students and educators of higher education, specialists, libraries, researchers, and academicians.
Hydrogen Fuel Cell Technology for Mobile Applications
Today, hydrogen is recognized as a non-polluting energy carrier because it does not contribute to global warming if it is produced from renewable sources. Hydrogen, focusing on the fact that hydrogen can be obtained from a wide range of primary energies, is the only secondary vector that lends itself to a wider application on the market. With the development of fuel cells, hydrogen-based energy generation becomes a reality, with hydrogen becoming an energy alternative worldwide. Because hydrogen can be produced from a wide range of primary energies and can be consumed in an increasing number of applications, it will become an energy center just as electricity is today. The world is on a brin...
Research Anthology on Environmental and Societal Well-Being Considerations in Buildings and Architecture
When it comes to architecture, there has been a focus on sustainable buildings and human well-being in the built environment. Buildings should not only be environmentally friendly and sustainable, but dually focused on human health, wellness, and experience. This includes considerations into the quality of buildings, ranging from ventilation to thermal comfort, along with environment considerations such as energy usage and material selection. Specific architectural choices and design for buildings can either contribute to or negatively impact both society and the environment, leading research in the field of architecture to be focused on environmental and societal well-being in accordance wi...
Fuel Cell Renewable Hybrid Power Systems
Climate change is becoming visible today, and so this book—through including innovative solutions and experimental research as well as state-of-the-art studies in challenging areas related to sustainable energy development based on hybrid energy systems that combine renewable energy systems with fuel cells—represents a useful resource for researchers in these fields. In this context, hydrogen fuel cell technology is one of the alternative solutions for the development of future clean energy systems. As this book presents the latest solutions, readers working in research areas related to the above are invited to read it.
Photovoltaic and Wind Energy Conversion Systems
In the first decades of the current millennium, the contribution of photovoltaic and wind energy systems to power generation capacity has grown extraordinarily all around the world; in some countries, these systems have become two of the most relevant sources to meet the needs of energy supply. This Special Issue deals with all aspects of the development, implementation, and exploitation of systems and installations that operate with both sources of energy.
Retrofitting for Optimal Energy Performance
Retrofitting expresses, in a traditional approach, the process of improving something after it has been manufactured, constructed, or assembled. These systems integrate new technologies, new functions, and new services that increase the energy performance in existing private, public, and commercial buildings. Retrofitting for Optimal Energy Performance is a comprehensive reference source that examines environmentally conscious technologies and their applications in advancing retrofitting practices. Providing relevant theoretical frameworks and the latest empirical research findings in the area, it highlights an array of topics such as climate change, energy management, and optimization modeling, and is essential for academicians, students, researchers, engineers, architects, entrepreneurs, managers, policymakers, and building owners.
Handbook of Research on Engineering Innovations and Technology Management in Organizations
As technology weaves itself more tightly into everyday life, socio-economic development has become intricately tied to these ever-evolving innovations. Technology management is now an integral element of sound business practices, and this revolution has opened up many opportunities for global communication. However, such swift change warrants greater research that can foresee and possibly prevent future complications within and between organizations. The Handbook of Research on Engineering Innovations and Technology Management in Organizations is a collection of innovative research that explores global concerns in the applications of technology to business and the explosive growth that resulted. Highlighting a wide range of topics such as cyber security, legal practice, and artificial intelligence, this book is ideally designed for engineers, manufacturers, technology managers, technology developers, IT specialists, productivity consultants, executives, lawyers, programmers, managers, policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students.
Concepts and Cases of Illicit Finance
As fraud and corruption continue to spread globally, illicit and illegitimate finance is one of many areas of concern. To help stop the spread of corruption across fields and industries, further study on the best practices and strategies to combat illicit and illegitimate finance is required. Concepts and Cases of Illicit Finance provides understanding and lessons learned regarding all aspects of illicit and illegitimate finance. Covering key topics such as financial crimes, financial intelligence, and hacking fraud, this premier reference work is ideal for business owners, managers, policymakers, industry professionals, researchers, academicians, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
