The continuous demand to reduce both the pollutant emissions and greenhouse gas (GHG) is increasing use of alternative fuels as biodiesel in direct-injection compression ignition engines under combined heat power (CHP) configuration. Although has different thermophysical properties compared standard diesel, it can be used without significant modifications. However, pure biodiesel/diesel blends ...

Cogeneration of electricity and freshwater by integrating photovoltaic/thermal collectors desalination systems is one the most promising methods to tackle challenges water energy shortages in remote areas. This study investigates a decentralized water/electricity cogeneration system combining concentrated vacuum multi-effect membrane distillation system. The merits such configuration include hi...

A mixed cation phosphate, NaMg 1− x Li H (PO 3 ) · y 2 O, exhibits a proton conductivity of over 10 −2 Scm −1 in the wide temperature range 150–500 ° C under non-humidified atmosphere, which is covering desired operating fuel cells for automobiles and cogeneration systems.
