Download or read book Evaluaci n energ tica de un Solar Pond de una industria Minera a lo largo de un a o written by Gladys Fancy Cobas Buzón and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En este proyecto se estudia el comportamiento energético de un estanque solar con gradiente salino y se realiza además, un análisis de la evolución de los datos de los parámetros obtenidos en el estanque solar perteneciente a la empresa Solvay Minerales situado en la provincia de Granada. Se realiza una búsqueda previa de varios de los estudios realizados del tema a nivel teórico y práctico. De esta documentación se puede extraer los fundamentos teóricos para poder evaluar el comportamiento energético de un Solar Pond y particularizar el análisis al estanque solar situado en las instalaciones de la Industria minera Solvay situada en Granada. El aspecto físico de un Solar Pond o estanque solar es similar a un recipiente lleno de agua con una cierta concentración salina, abierta por la superficie superior en contacto directo con el exterior. Los principios del funcionamiento propio son la captación y la acumulación de energía a partir de la radiación solar y la posterior extracción de esta energía, de forma que se transfiera a la aplicación más apropiada. El presente proyecto se centra en utilizar la tecnología de estanque solar para aplicar la energía térmica almacenada en el uso del proceso de flotación en la industrial de la empresa Solvay Minerales SA. La construcción de esta balsa solar es un avance tecnológico importante y es una novedad a nivel europeo, al ser el primer estanque de almacenamiento de energía solar europeo a escala preindustrial. Permitiendo una ampliación del conocimiento de la tecnología y el control del estanque solar es un paso tecnológico considerable en el campo de las energías renovables por el hecho de la novedad de la tecnología y la complejidad de la misma. El Solar Pond a escala preindustrial abre las puertas a la implantación de los estanques solares como tecnología capaz de captar y almacenar energía solar que después se puede aprovechar como energía térmica para procesos en industrias con un excedente de sal , o como almacenadores de energía térmica, permitiendo un ahorro de combustible . Este proyecto posiciona los estanques solares como nueva fuente de energía renovable ambientalmente favorable ya que usa como "producto" un residuo, y se añade a la lista de las tecnologías de producción de energía con bajas emisiones de efecto invernadero, haciendo así un paso más en la posible implantación de estas energías al mercado.

Download or read book Soil and Sediment Remediation written by Piet Lens and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2005-09-30 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soil and Sediment Remediation discusses in detail a whole set of remediative technologies currently available to minimise their impact. Technologies for the treatment of soils and sediments in-situ (landfarming, bioscreens, bioventing, nutrient injection, phytoremediation) and ex-situ (landfarming, bio-heap treatment, soil suspension reactor) will be discussed. The microbiological, process technological and socio-economical aspects of these technologies will be addressed. Special attention will be given to novel biotechnological processes that utilise sulfur cycle conversions, e.g. sulfur and heavy metal removal from soils. Also the potential of phytoremediation will be highlighted. In addition, treatment schemes for the clean-up of polluted megasites, e.g. harbours and Manufactured Gaswork Plants (MGP), will be elaborated. The aim of Soil and Sediment Remediation is to introduce the reader in: the biogeochemical characteristics of soil and sediments- new techniques to study soil/sediment processes (molecular probes, microelectrodes, NMR) clean up technologies for soils polluted with organic (PAH, NAPL, solvents) or inorganic (heavy metals) pollutants- preventative and remediative strategies and technologies available in environmental engineering novel process applications and bioreactor designs for bioremediation the impact of soil pollution on society and its economic importance.

Download or read book Tourism and Water written by Stefan Gössling and published by Channel View Publications. This book was released on 2015 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a systematic and comprehensive guide to the current state of knowledge on tourism and water. It is the first book to thoroughly examine the interrelationships of tourism and water use based on global, regional and business perspectives. Its assessment of tourism's global impact along with its overviews of sectoral and management approaches will provide a benchmark by which the water sustainability of tourism will be measured for years to come. In making a clear case for greater awareness and enhanced water management in the tourism sector, it is hoped that the book will contribute to the wise and sustainable use of this critical resource. The book is interdisciplinary in coverage and international in scope. It is designed as essential reading for not only students of tourism but also practitioners.
Download or read book The Protective Arm of the Renin Angiotensin System RAS written by Thomas Unger and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2015-04-18 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Protective Arm of the Renin Angiotensin System: Functional Aspects and Therapeutic Implications is the first comprehensive publication to signal the protective role of a distinct part of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS), providing readers with early insight into a complex system which will become of major medical importance in the near future. Focusing on recent research, The Protective Arm of the Renin Angiotensin System presents a host of new experimental studies on specific components of the RAS, namely angiotensin AT2 receptors (AT2R), the angiotensin (1–7) peptide with its receptor Mas, and the enzyme ACE 2, which exert significant beneficial, health-promoting actions by counterbalancing the well-known harmful arm of the RAS with its classical angiotensin AT1 receptor. This innovative concept of the protective arm of the RAS, examined in this reference, represents an indispensable background and will be a strong support for biomedical students, researchers, cardiologists, surgeons, nephrologists, diabetologists, and endocrinologists, as well as any other physician or researcher concerned with RAS physiology, pathophysiology and clinical implications. Provides a complete understanding of the protective side of the Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) involving angiotensin AT2 receptor, ACE2, and Ang(1-7)/Mas receptor Combines the knowledge of editors who pioneered research on the protective renin angiotensin system including; Dr. Thomas Unger, one of the founders of AT2 receptor research; Dr. Ulrike M. Steckelings, who contributed significantly to first preclinical studies with a novel specific AT2-agonist, and Dr. Robson Santos who pioneered research on angiotensin-(1-7) and its receptor Mas. Shows that the protective RAS axes are able to ameliorate the course of several cardiovascular, renal, metabolic and neurological diseases Provides the basis for the understanding of a novel therapeutic approach to stimulate components of the protective arm of the RAS.

Download or read book Airborne Particulate Matter written by R M Harrison and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The estimated health impacts and associated economic costs resulting from airborne particulate matter are substantial. Exposure to airborne fine particles ranks highly amongst preventable causes of disease. This book reviews the sources and atmospheric processes affecting airborne particulate matter and consequent impacts upon human health. Examining the latest information on the sources of particles in the atmosphere, both through direct emissions and atmospheric formation, the book also explores the methods which are used to estimate the contributions of different sources to airborne concentrations. Featuring case studies from recent assessments in Europe, the USA, China and India, the book provides a global overview of source apportionment. The health effects are reviewed in the context of the influence of sources, chemical composition and particle size upon relative toxicity. This comprehensive book is an important reference for policymakers and consultants working with pollution and human health, as well as academics working in atmospheric chemistry.
