DSD-INT 2015 - Aquifer thermal energy systems for sustainable cities - Pauline van Gaans Wijb Sommer, Zhuobiao Ni Johan Valstar, Tim Grotenhuis, Huub Rijnaarts
Aquifer Thermal Energy Systems (ATES) show potential for sustainable cities by providing heating and cooling through the seasonal storage of thermal energy in underground aquifers. Two PhD studies examined the impacts of heterogeneity, thermal interference between systems, and opportunities for bioremediation of chlorinated ethenes in Aquifer Thermal Energy Storage (ATES). Modeling and monitoring of case studies in the Netherlands provided insights into thermal performance, heat transport, and the effect of heterogeneity. Combining ATES with bioremediation stimulated the degradation of contaminants like cis-DCE. Challenges remain in optimizing the integrated management of subsurface resources for sustainable energy and contaminated site remediation.

Rainwater Savings Potential of Prototypical Green Roofs @ UC Berkeley
Green roofs are vegetated roof installations comprised of various tiers that provide plant support, drainage, and waterproofing. Extensive green roofs may provide environmental and economic benefits for UC Berkeley and help achieve UC system-wide and campus-specific environmental standards and goals, particularly through water conservation. To assess their potential, this study compares the rainwater savings of prototypical modular extensive green roofs with that of a regular gravel roof. The measures used for comparison are water detention and retention. Simulated precipitation patterns modeled after a local 25-year rainfall event were applied to roof treatments, and runoff rates and volumes were collected and analyzed.
Environmental Sciences provides broad, comprehensive education in the fundamentals of biology, chemistry, math, physics, and social sciences. The discipline involves the study of interactions between human activities and biological and physical environments on all scales, from the local to global.

Similar to DSD-INT 2015 - Aquifer thermal energy systems for sustainable cities - Pauline van Gaans Wijb Sommer, Zhuobiao Ni Johan Valstar, Tim Grotenhuis, Huub Rijnaarts
— Energy crisis today is a major matter of concern. Energy is the most essential ingredient in the process of economic growth and development. The search for alternative sources for various unit operations such as evaporation, drying, distillation, etc. has been in continuum but without much success. Industries being the major consumers of energy, its efficient usage and minimal wastage are of profound importance. ETPs or Effluent Treatment Plants are one of the components of a majority of the industry where a lot of energy is consumed. In every ETP, separate equipments are present to treat salt water. Desalination techniques such as Flash and Multi Effect Distillation in thermal, Electro dialysis and Reverse Osmosis (RO) in membrane category and many other processes such as freezing and humidification are used. For instance RO today is the most commonly used method for desalination. But the problem that accompanies it is that RO rejects concentrated brine solution every time it is used. This massive tonnage of salt water is then sent through a set of Multi-Effect Evaporators which not only increases the cost but majorly increases the energy requirement. The real problem with all the methods used is the need optimum economic designs and higher efficiency requirements thus making it both eco-friendly and economical for the industry. Modifications and innovations such as Incorporation of vacuum in humidification system increases the evaporation rate of water due to reduction in boiling point. In Electrodialysis, ion exchange resins are incorporated between the electrodes which help separate out ions into continuous streams. These provide continuity to the process and also enhance its rate. But still the need for energy turns out to be the major issue. This paper suggests an alternative innovative technique reduction in h bonding of water that can virtually eliminate the excessive energy needs in these processes.

COMPARING ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF DOMESTIC SOLAR WATER HEATER INSTALLATION IN...AEIJjournal2
Adequate and consistent energy supply is often regarded as a major factor in the development of any
country. To add to this, the depletion of fossil fuels has also emphasised the need for alternate renewable
energy solutions to meet global energy needs without inflicting any serious environmental impacts. Solar
energy is globally acknowledged for its vast potential, as a source of providing most of the heating, cooling
and electricity needs of the world. One of the most effective uses of solar energy is water heating. The use
of solar energy to heat water has been proven to be a very economical, efficient and environmental friendly
option for domestic as well as commercial applications. This study compares the feasibility of domestic
solar water heater installation in three major cities of Pakistan i.e. Lahore, Karachi and Peshawar. The
results show the solar water heater installation is most feasible in Peshawar, among the three selected
cities.
Experimental Evaluation of the Thermoelectrical Performance of Photovoltaic-T...AsstProfAzherAbed
A design for a photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) assembly with a water-cooled heat sink was
planned, constructed, and experimentally evaluated in the climatic conditions of the southern region
of Iraq during the summertime. The water-cooled heat sink was applied to thermally manage the
PV cells, in order to boost the electrical output of the PVT system. A set of temperature sensors
was installed to monitor the water intake, exit, and cell temperatures. The climatic parameters
including the wind velocity, atmospheric pressure, and solar irradiation were also monitored on a
daily basis. The effects of solar irradiation on the average PV temperature, electrical power, and
overall electrical-thermal efficiency were investigated. The findings indicate that the PV temperature
would increase from 65 to 73 ◦C, when the solar irradiation increases from 500 to 960 W/m2
, with
and without cooling, respectively. Meanwhile, the output power increased from 35 to 55 W when
the solar irradiation increased from 500 to 960 W/m2 during the daytime. The impact of varying the
mass flow rate of cooling water in the range of 4 to 16 L/min was also examined, and it was found
that the cell temperature declines as the water flow increases in intensity throughout the daytime.
The maximum cell temperature recorded for PV modules without cooling was in the middle of the
day. The lowest cell temperature was also recorded in the middle of the day for a PVT solar system
with 16 L/min of cooling water
CFD Analysis on Forced Convection Heat Transfer of KNO3–Ca NO3 2 TiO2 Molten ...YogeshIJTSRD
Nanotechnology has been a global movement in recent decades. The possibility of manipulating atomic and molecular materials has resulted in previously unimaginable properties and characteristics. The molten salt nanofluid created by integrating nanoparticles into molten salt has a much higher specific heat capacity and thermal conductivity than the base molten salt, resulting in a higher heat storage density and lower heat storage cost than the base molten salt. Since the discovery of molten salt nanofluids excellent thermal properties, the heat transfer of molten salt nanofluid has piqued engineers curiosity. In this analysis, the forced convection heat transfer of KNO3–Ca NO3 2 TiO2 molten salt nanofluid in circular tube was investigated using a 3 dimensional numerical 3 D simulation. The simulation programme ANSYS 17.0 was used for study of the heat transfer physiognomies of a KNO3–Ca NO3 2 TiO2 molten salt nanofluid in circular tube. The effect of nanofluid were measured and observed to influence the heat transfer and flow of fluids in a heat exchanger. The following conclusions can be drawn based on the provided results The KNO3–Ca NO3 2 TiO2 molten salt nanofluid performed slightly better in forced convection heat transfer than the KNO3–Ca NO3 2 SiO2 molten salt nanofluid under the same working conditions. KNO3–Ca NO3 2 TiO2 molten salt nanofluid had a 14.79 percent higher Nusselt number than KNO3–Ca NO3 2 SiO2 molten salt nanofluid.

Fabrication of new ceramics nanocomposites for solar energy storage and releasejournalBEEI
The carbides nanostructures have huge applications in renewable energy fields such as the saving of solar energy and release which attributed to the good their properties (thermal, electrical, mechanical, optical and chemical). So, in this paper, the solar energy storage and release of carbides nanoparticles/water for building heating and cooling applications have been investigated with different concentrations of metals carbides nanoparticles (tantalum carbide-silicon carbide). The results showed that the melting and solidification times for thermal energy storage and release decrease with an increase (TaC-SiC) nanoparticles concentrations. From the obtained results, the TaC/SiC nanostructures/ water nano-system are considered as promising materials for solar energy storage and release with high efficiency and high gain (more than 50% compare with the water). Also, the TaC/SiC may be used for heating and cooling fields with good performance and high gain.
Review of water-nanofluid based photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) systemsIJECEIAES
Solar energy is secure, clean, and available on earth throughout the year. The PV/T system is a device designed to receive solar energy and convert it into electric/thermal energy. Nanofluid is a new generation of heat transfer fluid with promising higher thermal conductivity and improve heat transfer rate compared with conventional fluids. In this review, the recent studies of PV/T using nanofluid is discussed regarding basic concept and theory PV/T, thermal conductivity of nanofluid and experimentally and theoretically study the perfromance of PV/T using nanofluid. A review of the literature shows that many studies have evaluated the potential of nanofluid as heat transfer fluid and optical filter in the PV/T system. The preparations of nanofluid play an essential key for high stability and homogenous nanofluid for a long period. The thermal conductivity of nanofluid is depending on the size of nanoparticles, concentration and preparation of nanofluids.
Use of distributed electricity generation systems is currently increasing due to their economic and environmental benefits. Agricultural greenhouses require heat and electricity for covering their energy needs while their annual energy requirements vary significantly. Aim of the current work is the investigation of applying various distributed electricity generation systems in greenhouses. A review of different distributed generation systems currently used in various sectors as well as in greenhouses has been implemented. Various technologies are examined utilizing either renewable energies or fossil fuels in very efficient energy systems. Most of them are mature and cost-effective having lower environmental impacts compared with traditional centralized electricity generation technologies. Their use in greenhouses results in many benefits including the creation of an additional income for the farmer, reduction of carbon emissions into the atmosphere and increasing stability of the electric grid. It is suggested that distributed electricity generation systems should be used more in greenhouses when the necessary conditions are favorable.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.
First Steps with Globus Compute Multi-User EndpointsGlobus
In this presentation we will share our experiences around getting started with the Globus Compute multi-user endpoint. Working with the Pharmacology group at the University of Auckland, we have previously written an application using Globus Compute that can offload computationally expensive steps in the researcher's workflows, which they wish to manage from their familiar Windows environments, onto the NeSI (New Zealand eScience Infrastructure) cluster. Some of the challenges we have encountered were that each researcher had to set up and manage their own single-user globus compute endpoint and that the workloads had varying resource requirements (CPUs, memory and wall time) between different runs. We hope that the multi-user endpoint will help to address these challenges and share an update on our progress here.
Listen to the keynote address and hear about the latest developments from Rachana Ananthakrishnan and Ian Foster who review the updates to the Globus Platform and Service, and the relevance of Globus to the scientific community as an automation platform to accelerate scientific discovery.

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

8 wells, 15-50 m depth
operational since 2002
~ 500 000 m3/yr
~ 1700 MWh cooling
~ 1700 MWh heating
Thermal recovery:
• heat 68%
• cold 82%
Energy (im)balance:
• yearly 33%
• cumulative 0-18%
Well clogging:
Flow rates distributed unequally
More injection more clogging
6. Thermal performance and heat transport in ATES
5 Nov 2015 Infra for Water & Energy 6
Effect of heterogeneity on system performance, stochastic modelling
Heterogeneity reduces thermal recovery
When well spacing is sufficient (>Rth) effects are smaller
For smaller well spacing: uncertainty
7. Thermal interference, case study The Hague & optimisation

8. ATES-ENA: Potential for subsurface conditioning
5 Nov 2015 Infra for Water & Energy 8
Improving redox condition stimulates
biodegradation, but primary limitation is
abundance of proper microorganisms
Implementation of bioremediation
stimulation must be location specific
Prior monitoring of redox potential can be
advantageous in view of cost-effectiveness
• Low natural PCE biodegradation potential
• Redox condition is limiting (Fe(III) reducing)
Redox improvement by electron donor
9. cis-DCE biodegradation under ATES and BTES conditions
5 Nov 2015 Infra for Water & Energy 9
Both systems perform significantly better in cis-DCE
removal than natural situation (overall removal rates
for ATES 13x and for BTES 8.5x higher)
Dehalococcoides prefer to attach to sediments
In controls without Dehalococcoides, only limited
incomplete degradation till VC is observed
10. Microbial resilience to redox changes & clogging
5 Nov 2015 Infra for Water & Energy 10
Microbial resilience of
DHC to nitrate is weak.
Recovery of reductive
dechlorination requires
extra effort and is difficult.
DHC prefers to attach to
the soil matrix. Under
harsh redox conditions,
DHC detach and are
flushed out.
Column resistance, as
indicator for clogging,
increases due to nitrate
addition (formation of
Fe2O3), but decreases
when lactate is added.
No increase is observed
along with total biomass
growth.
