abstract background: biogas is obtained by anaerobic decomposition of organic wastes buried materials used to produce electricity, heat and biofuels. biogas is at the second place for power generation after hydropower and in 2000 about 6% of the world power generation was allocated to biogas. biogas is composed of 40–45 vol% co2, 55–65 vol% ch4, and about 1% non-methanevocs, and non-methane vol...

according to research, between 15 to 20 percent of the total energy consumption of every country is used for residential spaces. this amount is explanatory of the high cost and will follow the destruction of natural resources and environmental demolition. the aim of this research is to recognize earth thermal ability and its usage in public buildings and especially in private buildings in order...

the interaction between the solute and the solsent molecules play a crucial role in understanding the various molecular processes involved in chemistry and biochemistry, so in this work the potential energy of active site of azurin have been calculated in solvent by the monte carlo simulation. in this paper we present quantitative results of monte carlo calculations of potential energies of ...

this paper surveys economic growth and energy consumption relationship by new econometric methods in different sectors of iran. this study uses panel error correction model and panel co integration and causality tests to investigate short run and long run relationship between energy and value added growth in different sectors of iran’s economy with regards to energy price in the time period of ...

the present paper investigates the effect of production factors, including technology, physical capital and labour on the energy consumption intensity of iran. for this purpose, time series data during the period of (1974-2007) have been analyzed within cobb–douglas production function framework. the results of the study indicate that the technology and the physical capital have caused the aver...

hydrogen technology is becoming ever more relevant because hydrogen use can help containinggreenhouse gas emission if co2 capture and storage techniques are implemented in the hydrogen productiontechnology (when hydrogen is produced from fossil fuels). for this reason this work aims at carryingout a comparative analysis of possible energy scenarios in urban districts: a medium-small italian cit...

energy consumption in the residential sector is a complex socio-technical problem that can be explained using acombination of physical, demographic and behavioural characteristics of a house and its occupants. in this paper, byusing the energy consumption data for the residential sector of shiraz in iran, the effect of built area (ba) andoccupant number (occ) on annual energy consumption (ec) w...

drying of agricultural products is a sophisticated process with high energy consumption. energy needed for sustainable development, is one of the biggest challenges facing humanity. the performance of a heat recovery assisted solar dryer was evaluated in this study. drying time, collector efficiency, energy consumption, solar fraction and energy recovery fraction were investigated at different ...
