Biocomposites have emerged as promising alternative materials for the aviation industry. However, there is a limited body of scientific literature addressing end-of-life management biocomposites. This article evaluated different technologies biocomposite recycling in structured, five-step approach applying innovation funnel principle. First, ten (EoL) were compared terms their circularity potential and technology readiness levels (TRL). Second, multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) was...
Abstract Industrial thermal processing operations are highly energy intensive, and must be efficiently operated, especially under the current global crisis. However, optimization of such complex is a nontrivial task formally approached. In present work, an integrated model has been used in conjunction with genetic algorithm to optimize industrial age-hardening packed bundles aluminum alloy rods. The presence peak yield strength strong dependence time on temperature make this operation...
Abstract To achieve climate neutrality ambitions, greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector need to be reduced by at least 90% 2050. support industry and policy makers on mitigating actions goals it is important holistically compare reduce life cycle environmental impacts of road passenger vehicles. A web‐based sustainability assessment tool named battery electric vehicle impact model, BEVSIM, developed assess environmental, circularity, economic performance materials, sub‐systems,...
Batch annealing operation of a secondary cold-rolling mill has numerous operational challenges, including processing input coils from varied sources with high variability, pressure to maintain low inventory level and lack process model for customized cycle design individual stacks. The present work describes case study modern tinplate manufacturing operation, where hot-rolled steel are cold rolled very thin sheet thickness, followed by batch tinplating operation. It was envisaged that...
Abstract Modern industrial batch annealing operations are highly automated, where the process cycles of individual stacks designed with a thermal model. The inability model in capturing kinetics and associated inefficiency was recently illustrated. Subsequently, this limitation overcome through an integrated model, prediction capability extended to kinetics, microstructure, mechanical properties. However, requires significant processing time deterministically designing cycle for battery...
There is a major push by governments and value chain partners to move towards circular options for difficult-to-recycle post-consumer products such as waste mattresses.[1] In the Netherlands alone ~1.5 million mattresses are discarded yearly, of which majority (>60%) incinerated.[2] A sustainable solution recycle required enable Dutch industry meet economy goals set government.[3] This paper shares findings from screening level life cycle assessment (LCA) four End-of-Life (EoL)...
<title>Abstract</title> Electrification is needed to improve the environmental performance of transportation sector but must be accompanied by technological innovations that eliminate ecological hotspots over vehicle’s lifetime. Additionally, lifetime costs electric vehicles reduced. This study uses battery vehicle sustainability impact assessment model (BEVSIM) analyse effects potential changes in recycled plastic content and its waste treatment, electricity grid, price (BEVs). Using parts...
Various construction activities were planned in an area next to Intel''s sub-micron microelectronics facility Santa Clara. We needed develop a system ensure the continued operation of process equipment during without any yield problems due transmission construction-related vibrations. A computer-based vibration monitoring was devised and built which provides continuous measurements is suitable for ''interactive'' as well ''archive'' use. In use, alarm levels are set at two threshold values...
