Monitored energy use of air to water heat pumps in single Passivhaus dwellings is compared with the design estimates using PHPP. Heat pumps using conventional HFC refrigerants are compared with CO2 refrigerant. The latter gave improved performance for hot water heating but significantly worse for space heating. This is due to the very low heat load of Passivhaus dwellings being below the normal output range of available heat pumps.

Passivhaus Designing for heating load 25th Passivhaus ConferenceNick Grant
Passive solar is dead, long live super-insulation. This paper was presented at the 25th International Passivhaus Conference, online. Passivhaus (Passive House) is the leading international standard for comfortable low energy buildings. This paper recommends designers consider designing for the alternative metric of peak heating load rather than annual energy demand. This means optimising glazing for daylight and views and not for solar gain.

"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
WRI’s brand new “Food Service Playbook for Promoting Sustainable Food Choices” gives food service operators the very latest strategies for creating dining environments that empower consumers to choose sustainable, plant-rich dishes. This research builds off our first guide for food service, now with industry experience and insights from nearly 350 academic trials.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

12. Climate Change Reality
• “The latest science makes it clear that the world needs to reach zero
carbon emissions globally by 2050 to maximise chances of staying
below 2 degrees and to make 1.5 degrees feasible,”… Mary Robinson,
NUI maynooth, Summer 2015
• End fossil fuels for heating and electricity by 2040
• Grid Electricity is a huge challenge (but not for Today’s discussion!!)
• For housing:
– Elimination of fossil fuel at household level.
– Energy Efficiency
– Renewable energy primary and secondary heat.
• Practical implications:
– Airtightness & ventilation
– Fabric
– Wood Pellets or Heat pumps and Grid De-Carbonisation.
13. Domestic CO2 reduction options
• Credible option A:
• At generational retrofit (30-50 years) – when large works being
undertaken:
– External insulation to foundation, and through soffit.
– Remove ceilings, membrane installation, and replace floor.
– New windows & doors, airtight to fabric.
– Airtightness to 0.6-2 ACH;
– HRV, External Airsource stoves, Heatpumps with UFH.
– 60-80k additional cost Vs Standard rewire/ replaster/ replumb/ reroof.
– BER of 40-65 kWh/M2/annum.
– €300 to heat.
– 1.8M houses @70k = 126Bn Euro.
– It will take 50-100 years at current renovation rate to achieve.
• We have 25.
• We need a cheaper solution.
14. Domestic CO2 reduction options
• Credible option B:
• At deep retrofit that forgoes very long payback fabric upgrades that costs
less to do, but higher ongoing heat use using RES-E (via grid)
– External insulation only for solid walls.
– Seal up gaps and holes with 3-6 man days labour to achieve 3-5ACH/ Hr.
– New front doors.
– New windows where > 3Uvalue; new glazing where frames have long life left.
– HRV or DCV (i.e. not hole in wall!!)
– Heatpumps with LT rads (COP 3 expected) or pellets.
– 20-40k cost.
– BER of 70-100 kWh/M2/annum.
– €600- €800 to heat vs €1800 (18MWh @10c oil; after boiler).
– 1.8M houses @25k = 45 Bn Euro. (still 8-10 x current retrofit rate!!).
15. Measures
• Minimum Requirements:
• Heat pumps:
– Need Low Temperature Radiators
– Need longer heating times, therefore airtightness becomes more of an issue.
– If airtightness improved, ventilation needs to be improved.
– Controls need to be integrated (on/ off Vs radiator temperature control).
• Biomass Boilers
– Pellets may be chosen (larger, historic dwellings)
– Log gassification stoves or Boilers may be chosen with self supply, but not likely.
• Secondary heating
– Remove open fires or Install Chain based chimney closure and No HRV.
– Biomass room heater stoves with external air feed.
• Airtightness upgrade (experimental)
– Pre works test.
– Window/ door frame seal upgrade.
– Service openings external and internal sealing.
– Attic AT works (Taping services, Wires from ceiling roses/ conduits, other openings).
– Other AT weaknesses based on a test.
16. Measures
• Minimum Requirements:
• Ventilation:
– Ideally Whole House Heat recovery Ventilation however:
• Can be excessively disruptive/ costly
• Householder may be tied to Open fires or non balanced flue stoves (HRV not ok).
– Demand Control Ventilation
– Other TBC.
• Real time electricity monitor.
• External access controls
• Hot water tank for Heat pump (i.e. Low temperature coil)
• Passiv Haus Front Door.
17. Measures
Optional additions:
• Cavity wall insulation
• External Wall insulation
• Attic insulation.
• Windows (frames and glazing)
• Glazing Elements (coated, warm edge spacer, inert gas)
• Solar PV
– All houses will have day / night meter upgrades for the HP.
– High day baseload with HRV.
– Solar Water heater via PV and heatpump!
– Need Low Temperature Radiators
• Low energy Lighting.
– High Quality LED’s
18. What will we learn
• Consumer appetite
• Consumer attitudes to retrofit
• Financial model test
• Air Permeability reduction
• Heat pump performance appraisal
….. And a huge amount of other data!!
