Use Energy Efficiency, Eco-Design, and Eco-Friendly Materials to Support Eco-Tourism

Eco-friendly Blocks by Blended Materials

In spite of broad improvements in construction technology, cement is still stayed as binding material for construction purposes. Cement industries are the main sources for the contribution of carbon dioxide (co2) into the atmosphere. So, there is a need to use new materials as binders (green binders) in substitute for cement, which leads to reducing the production of cement. In this study, fly ...

Eco-friendly high-performance silicide thermoelectric materials

Silicide-based thermoelectrics are examples of cost-efficient and environmentally friendly new energy materials, which can be used for power-generation applications in the range of 500–800 K. We review the research focusing on the exploration of n-typeMg2IV-based solid solutions (IV= Si, Ge and Sn) and summarize the most prominent discoveries achieved so far in their studies. Owing to their sup...

Recommending Eco-Friendly Route Plans

As personal transportation is one of the greatest contributors of CO2 emissions, means able to assist travelers in reducing their ecological impact are urgently needed. In this work we focus on travel recommenders that encourage green transportation habits among travelers who have a preexisting interest in taking action to lessen their impact on the environment. We aim to provide urban traveler...

Eco-Village and Climatic Design

Eco village design is a new field of knowledge still under development. It will be the physical manifestation of the unfolding of the ecovillage dream held by so many. It is generally agreed that concept of sustainability should play an increasing role in future urban development world-wide. In order to ensure ecological sustainability, cities around the world have to decrease their environment...
