Ballast Water Analysis And Heat Treatment Using Waste Heat Recovery Systems On Board Ships

Ballast water contains a variety of organisms including bacteria, viruses and the adult and larval stages of the many marine and coastal plants and animals. As such, it poses serious ecological, economic and health problems and has serious negative effects on the global environment. This paper presents a new efficient ballast water analysis and heat treatment system using waste heat recovery sy...

Research on a Household Dual Heat Source Heat Pump Water Heater with Preheater Based on ASPEN PLUS

This article proposes a dual heat source heat pump bathroom unit with preheater which is feasible for a single family. The system effectively integrates the air source heat pump (ASHP) and wastewater source heat pump (WSHP) technologies, and incorporates a preheater to recover shower wastewater heat and thus improve the total coefficient of performance (COP) of the system, and it has no electri...

Numerical and Experimental Analysis of Heat and Mass Transfer Processes on Water Trays in Household Refrigerators

This paper describes an experimental and theoretical analysis of the heat and mass transfer processes that take place during defrosted water evaporation from compressor water trays. The influence of the operating conditions on the water evaporation rate was experimentally evaluated using a purpose-built testing facility. Two different tray designs were studied (top hat and membrane). In total, ...

Household Water Treatment in China

Dear Sir: We read with interest the article by Rosa and Clasen 1 about the prevalence of household water treatment in low-income and middle-income countries. They discussed the geographic limitations of their global estimation, especially the lack of data for the largest national population in China. Several surveys covering water and sanitation have been undertaken in China in recent decades, ...
