Abstract:

Solar thermal installations are one of the popular types of renewable energy sources. This paper presents the comparison of the considered design variants of the typical solar hot water installation on the basis of Life Cycle Assessment. The simulations and the design criteria included:- optimal angle of inclination and orientation of collectors for the selected location (simulations in GetSolar),- optimal type of collectors (simulations in SimaPro).Life cycle analysis of solar hot water systems shows that this technology has the potential to reduce the environmental impact of hot water prepar

A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) using SimaPro software has been carried out concerning the manufacture of artificial lightweight aggregates (LWAs). The study aims to evaluate the changes in the environmental impact when an additive of residual origin, specifically olive pomace (OP), is added following the principles of the Circular Economy. This residue (commonly known as alperujo) was used as a substitute for clay in 1.25, 2.5 and 5 wt%. The environmental impact related to the use of olive pomace in the mixture was estimated using the CML 2000 methodology, yielding improvements of 3.8%, 7.7% an

Globally, as the population and the living standards expanded, so did the use of energy and materials. Renewable energy resources are being used to help address the energy issue and reduce greenhouse gas emissions (GHG). Because lignocellulosic biomass resources are widely available and renewable, various processes are used to convert these resources into bioenergy. In the current study, two production processes were evaluated, namely the transformation of vine shoot waste into value-added biofuels, i.e., pellets/briquettes and bioethanol.
