2. 6. Process Utility Performance Evaluation and Enhancements in the Traditional Sugar Cane Industry

   Author : Eyerusalem Deresse Birru; Andrew Martin; Catharina Erlich; Hailong Li; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sugar cane; energy saving; heat loss; steady state; transient state; CO2 emission; absorption chiller; pellet; bagasse drying; energy perfor-mance; traditional mills; modern mills; waste water; surplus power; Energy Technology; Energiteknik;

   Abstract : The need to achieve sustainable development has led to devising various approaches for the efficient utilization of natural resources. Renewable energy technology and energy efficiency measures feature prominently in this regard, and in particular for industries such as sugar production:  the sugar cane industry’s eponymous feedstock is a renewable resource, and mills have potential for increased energy savings via improvements to cogeneration units, electric drive retrofitting, and other measures.

4. 7. Building as active elements of energy systems

   Author : Mehmet Börühan Bulut; Björn Karlsson; Fredrik Wallin; Peter Stigson; Jenny Palm; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; smart grid; smart home; cooperation; energy; buildings; Energy- and Environmental Engineering; energi- och miljöteknik;

   Abstract : Buildings account for approximately 40% of the energy demand and 33% of the total greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union. Accordingly, there are several efforts that target energy efficiency in buildings both at the European and Swedish levels. The role of buildings in climate change mitigation, however, is not limited to energy savings. READ MORE

5. 8. Efficient driving of CBTC ATO operated trains

   Author : William Carvajal Carreño; Paloma Cucala García; Antonio Fernández-Cardador; Lennart Söder; Rafael Palacios Hielscher; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energy efficiency; CBTC signalling system; ATO; Metro; Ecodriving; NSGA-II-F; pseudo-Pareto front; Tracking algorithm; Fuzzy parameters; Moving-block; Train Simulation.; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik; Energy Technology; Energiteknik; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Abstract : Energy consumption reduction is one of the priorities of metro operators, due to financial cost and environmental impact. The new signalling system Communications-Based Train Control (CBTC) is being installed in new and upgraded metro lines to increase transportation capacity. READ MORE

6. 9. Multi-Mode Datapath Circuits for Flexible and Energy-Efficient Computing

   Author : Tung Hoang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; precision; power gating; accelerator; Multi-mode; energy efficiency;

   Abstract : Tailored to run domain-specific applications under very strict constraints on, for example, real-time performance and power dissipation, embedded systems rarely can be implemented on general-purpose computing platforms. Rather, the embedded processor's architecture and implementation technology should be fine tuned to the needs of the particular embedded system. READ MORE

7. 10. Evaluation of a thermally driven heat pump for solar heating and cooling applications

   Author : Corey Blackman; Chris Bales; Eva Thorin; Victoria Martin; Mälardalens högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; solar energy; solar heating and cooling; sorption integrated; Reesbe företagsforskarskola; Reesbe företagsforskarskola; Energy- and Environmental Engineering;

   Abstract : Exploiting solar energy technology for both heating and cooling purposes has the potential of meeting an appreciable portion of the energy demand in buildings throughout the year. By developing an integrated, multi-purpose solar energy system, that can operate all twelve months of the year, a high utilisation factor can be achieved which translates to more economical systems.
