Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is vital to climate change mitigation, has application across the economy, in addition facilitating atmospheric carbon dioxide removal resulting emissions offsets net negative emissions. This contribution reviews state-of-the-art identifies key challenges which must be overcome order pave way for its large-scale deployment.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) present fire, explosion and toxicity hazards through the release of flammable noxious gases during rare thermal runaway (TR) events. This off-gas is subject active research within academia, however, there has been no comprehensive review on topic. Hence, this work analyses available literature data to determine how battery parameters affect variation in volume composition, flammability different chemistries. It found average that: (1) NMC LIBs generate larger...
The thermal treatment of limestone (mainly CaCO3) to produce lime (CaO) is a major contributor CO2 emissions and the literature on decarbonising industry scarce. Subsequent hydration would lead synthesis slaked/hydrated Ca(OH)2; production tonne Ca(OH)2 emits ∼1.2 tonnes arising mainly from process chemistry fossil fuel combustion. Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) technologies are currently believed have highest potential mitigate these emissions, assuming that calcination CaCO3 unavoidable....
Decarbonising heat provision is paramount in the global shift towards sustainable energy, and waste utilisation presents a transformative opportunity, especially areas of industrial activity. Accordingly, this study examines performance District Heating Networks (DHNs) integrated with unconventional sources, specifically mine water heat, aiming to derive comprehensive understanding techno-economic environmental implications various DHN configurations. To end refined network dynamics...
The development, testing and validation of a two-fluid transient flow model for simulating outflow following the failure high pressure CO2 pipelines is presented. Thermal mechanical non-equilibrium effects during depressurisation are accounted by utilising simple constitutive relations describing inter-phase mass, heat momentum transfer in terms relaxation to equilibrium. Pipe wall/fluid exchange on other hand modelled coupling fluid with finite difference conduction model. model's...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading, whereby customers can trade with one another rather than the supplier only, has potential to save money for consumers whilst also incentivising more efficient and environmentally beneficial behaviour. Many existing models P2P only consider a real-time or hour-ahead market, which does not allow proper scope planning of flexible demand storage. Accordingly, in this model we employ day-ahead continuous double auction (CDA), all upcoming timeslots are...
Electricity demand is expected to grow in the upcoming years due electrification of transport, which will likely result an increase electricity peak when charging at home; this would not represent a problem for electric vehicle (EV) owner but could potentially destabilise grid. This work has compared use stationery and vehicle-to-home (V2H) energy storage systems minimise bill household consumers. The impact using different tariffs derived by was also investigated. Real-world data used model...
