Download or read book Innovations in Smart Cities Applications Volume 5 written by Mohamed Ben Ahmed and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-03-03 with total page 1117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sets the innovative research contributions, works, and solutions for almost all the intelligent and smart applications in the smart cities. The smart city concept is a relevant topic for industrials, governments, and citizens. Due to this, the smart city, considered as a multi-domain context, attracts tremendously academics researchers and practitioners who provide efforts in theoretical proofs, approaches, architectures, and in applied researches. The importance of smart cities comes essentially from the significant growth of populations in the near future which conducts to a real need of smart applications that can support this evolution in the future cities. The main scope of this book covers new and original ideas for the next generations of cities using the new technologies. The book involves the application of the data science and AI, IoT technologies and architectures, smart earth and water management, smart education and E-learning systems, smart modeling systems, smart mobility, and renewable energy. It also reports recent research works on big data technologies, image processing and recognition systems, and smart security and privacy.

Download or read book Energy from Organic Materials Biomass written by Martin Kaltschmitt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-07-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive reference is a state-of-the-art survey of biomass as an energy carrier for the provision of heat, electricity, and transportation fuel, considering technical, economic, environmental, and social aspects. On a global scale, biomass contributes roughly 12 to 16 % of the energy needed to cover the overall primary energy consumption. Thus far, it is humanity’s most important source of renewable energy, used on practically all continents and growing in importance even in industrialized nations. With detailed coverage of the production of solid, gaseous and liquid fuels, as well as a final energy provision, this volume serves as an introduction for readers just entering the field, but also offers new insights, up-to-date information, as well as latest findings for advanced researchers, industry experts, and decision makers.

Download or read book Composition Chimique Et Valorisation Energetique Des Biomasses written by Bruno Godin and published by Univ Europeenne. This book was released on 2013-06-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Notre recherche s'inscrit dans le contexte de la production de biomasses vegetales riches en cellulose et en hemicelluloses, comme source d'energie renouvelable. La selection des especes vegetales adaptees aux conversions energetiques requiert une bonne connaissance de leur composition chimique et de leurs aptitudes a etre transformees en biomethane ou en bioethanol par fermentation, ou a etre utilisees comme combustible solide. Nous avons developpe une methode d'analyse pour le dosage de la cellulose et des hemicelluloses appropriee au domaine de la conversion energetique des biomasses vegetales. En analysant de nombreuses biomasses, nous avons decouvert que la diversite de leur composition chimique peut se structurer en groupes de biomasses presentant non seulement des proprietes et des teneurs en fibres similaires, mais aussi des origines phylogenetiques communes. Pour reduire les couts analytiques, notre approche a permis de selectionner trois parametres couramment analyses (teneurs en cellulose, en hemicelluloses et en substances minerales) comme suffisants pour predire les aptitudes des biomasses aux differentes conversions energetiques.
