Geothermal energy has several advantages over coal facilities including producing significantly less pollution in the form of sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxide emissions. It is also a renewable source of energy that regenerates on shorter timescales than fossil fuels. Additionally, geothermal energy conserves fossil fuels and does not require large amounts of space. However, it has disadvantages such as being limited to specific locations near geothermal reservoirs and not being movable once facilities are built.

Solar photocatalysis
Solar Photocatalysis a green and novel technology for wastewater treatment. It is a sustainable way to harvest solar energy for treatment of wastewater at a lower cost thus helping in achieving some of the Sustainable Development Goals(i.e. Good Health and Wellbeing).
This is based on the advanced oxidation process i.e. generation of reactive oxygen species which can help in the degradation of pollutants
Older works
The document discusses using high quality factor silicon nitride microdisk resonators for visible light sensing applications. It describes how silicon nitride is a suitable material due to its properties like high index and low loss in the visible spectrum. The fabrication process for the microdisk resonators is outlined, including electron beam lithography and etching. Critical coupling to waveguides is achieved using pedestal and pulley coupling schemes, with the pulley scheme providing longer interaction lengths and phase matching between modes. Experimental demonstrations show quality factors as high as 8 million can be achieved, and the pulley coupling scheme enables selective excitation of cavity modes.
The Role of IrO2 in Mediating Hole Transfer at the TiO2 Interface
The document summarizes a study on the role of iridium oxide (IrO2) in shuttling photogenerated holes across the TiO2 interface in a UV-irradiated TiO2 system. Spectroscopic analysis found that IrO2 mediates the transfer of trapped holes on TiO2 to itself with a rate constant of 6×105 s-1. Interestingly, IrO2 also catalyzes the recombination of trapped holes with reduced oxygen species, which can hinder photocatalytic water splitting. A "reverse" fuel cell design is proposed to separate the electrons and oxygen/hydrogen products to overcome this issue.
Recent Advances in Photocatalytic Reactors.
Recent advances in photocatalytic reactors were summarized in 3 sentences or less:
The document reviewed various photocatalytic reactor designs used to degrade organic pollutants like pesticides and dyes, as well as microorganisms, using different catalysts like TiO2 and light sources like sunlight and UV lamps. Reactors included batch, continuous flow, and thin film designs. Degradation rates of over 90% were typically achieved for various contaminants like monocrotophos, acetamiprid, thiabendazole, methyl orange, and rhodamine B.
Powerpoint environment
The document summarizes key nutrient cycles (carbon, water, nitrogen) and their importance for organisms. It also discusses human impacts such as agriculture, pollution, and population growth on ecosystems. Specific pollutants are outlined like greenhouse gases, acid rain precursors, and nuclear fallout. Agriculture can involve deforestation, use of fertilizers and pesticides, and pollution from runoff.
Preparation and photocatalytic activity of alkali titanate
The document describes the preparation and photocatalytic activity of alkali titanate nano materials. Specifically, it discusses how lithium titanate, sodium titanate, and potassium titanate nano crystals were successfully synthesized using a novel hydrothermal process. Characterization of the materials found they had different morphologies - lithium titanate formed snowflake structures while sodium and potassium titanate formed nanorods. Testing showed the materials had higher photocatalytic activity for degrading chloroform under UV light than a commercial titanium dioxide photocatalyst. The addition of nickel oxide as a cocatalyst further improved the photocatalytic activity, with potassium titanate showing the highest activity.

Visible-light-induced photocatalytic reduction of aromatic nitrobenzenes to the corresponding anilines at room temperature using reduced graphene oxide (rGO) immobilized iron(II) bipyridine complex asphotocatalyst is described. The rGO-immobilized iron catalyst exhibited superior catalytic activity than homogeneous iron(II) bipyridine complex and much higher than metal free rGO photocatalysts. The heterogeneous photocatalyst was found to be robust and could easily be recovered and reused for several runs without any significant loss in photocatalytic activity.
Energy Resonance Study, France 2005
Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) was observed between lanthanide-ion doped oxide nanoparticles (donors) and organic fluorophore acceptors. Specifically, YVO4:Eu nanoparticles were used as donors with emission at 617nm to excite Cy5 acceptors with emission at 670nm. The efficiency of energy transfer followed the Förster equation with a Förster distance (Ro) of 37.4672 Å. Future work will explore time-gated detection to reduce background fluorescence and use of alternative lanthanide-doped nanoparticles as both donors and acceptors to enable multi-color FRET experiments.

IRJET- Sonochemical Synthesis of Tio2 and Tio2-Sio2 Nanocomposites and their ...
This document summarizes the sonochemical synthesis of TiO2 and TiO2-SiO2 nanocomposites and their photocatalytic properties. TiO2 and TiO2-SiO2 were synthesized using a simple sonochemical technique. XRD and FESEM characterization showed that TiO2 had a mixed anatase and rutile structure while TiO2-SiO2 was predominantly anatase TiO2 with some rutile and SiO2 peaks. Photocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B dye under visible light showed TiO2-SiO2 had higher efficiency (61%) than TiO2 alone (49%). The nanocomposites thus showed improved photocatalytic performance compared to bare TiO2.

Introduction to hrm lecture 1
The document provides an introduction to human resource management (HRM). It aims to demonstrate the role of HR and understand factors influencing HRM. HR deals with managing people by acquiring, developing, and supporting staff to fulfill their roles. HRM is defined as a series of activities that agree on work relationships and ensure agreements are fulfilled. The key aspects of HRM include recruiting, training, rewarding, and developing employees. HRM replaced personnel management in the 1980s-90s with a new distinct management approach focused on long-term perspectives, commitment, and maximum resource utilization. Hard and soft HRM models are also discussed, with hard HRM viewing employees as resources to control and soft HRM stressing human aspects and involvement.
Application of nanotechnology
The document outlines various applications of nanotechnology. It begins with definitions of nanoscale and nanotechnology, explaining that nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometers. It then discusses several important applications of nanotechnology including in medicine for targeted drug delivery, cancer treatment, and potential cell repair; in electronics for improved displays, memory, and transistors; in energy for more efficient wind turbines, solar cells, and reducing friction; and in consumer products for improved textiles, appliances, and cosmetics.

Session 27 Björn Birgisson
This document summarizes techniques for reducing the energy requirements of pavement construction and maintenance. It discusses warm asphalt mixtures that can be produced and laid at lower temperatures than traditional hot mixes, reducing costs and emissions. Specific techniques mentioned include using bitumen foaming additives, wax additives, and emulsion-based processes. Foamed asphalt mixtures allow the use of recycled asphalt and can be produced and laid at temperatures as low as 90 degrees Celsius. These low-energy pavement solutions help make transportation infrastructure more sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Kamloops.2
1) The proposed gasification plant in Kamloops raises several environmental and health concerns due to the inexperience of the operator, the scaling up of an experimental project, and the plan to burn creosote-treated wood ties.
2) Creosote-treated wood presents complex burning problems as creosote contains many toxic and carcinogenic compounds that could produce dioxins and furans when burned.
3) Kamloops is not a suitable location for an experimental burning facility given its existing air pollution problems, vulnerable population, and air dispersal challenges. The community should carefully investigate the impacts and refuse to accept residues from the proposed plant.
An introduction to waste to energy 130417
This document provides an introduction to waste-to-energy technologies. It discusses various types of solid waste including municipal and hazardous waste. It describes established waste treatment methods like composting, incineration, and landfills. Newer technologies like plasma gasification are introduced. The document also addresses environmental concerns associated with waste treatment and discusses methods like waste burning and methane capture in more detail.
Preparation of catalysts_by_impregnation_methods
The document summarizes the impregnation method of preparing industrial catalysts. It involves adding catalytically active materials to a support substrate. There are several impregnation techniques described - pore volume impregnation, excess solution impregnation, and reaction precipitation. The method allows for good dispersion of the active phase within the support and concentration of the catalyst. An example process of making a copper oxide-cerium oxide catalyst on an alumina support via two sequential impregnation steps is provided. Potential applications include catalytic converters for exhaust gas pollution reduction. Benefits of impregnation catalysts include lower cost than platinum-based catalysts and stability over a wide temperature range.
