Poslání konference • The shift towards a global sustainable future energy system is now clear. Although fossil fuel will remain dominant in the next few decades, there are signs that the era of cheap oil is over as production costs and demand increases. There is also an increasing urgency to limit CO2 emission to the 450 ppm level. Judicious use of available conventional energy along with the utilization of new and renewable energy resources are viable ways towards a sustainable and secure energy future. An International Energy Conference is being organized in Brunei Darussalam with the purpose of bringing the energy research community to a common platform to share recent advances in various areas of energy research and to deliberate on the possible pathways for clean energy solutions.

Dosud jsme využívali chemicky váznou energii ve fosilních palivech • Nadále bude třeba využívat energii i z jiných systémů • Palivové články na různá paliva • Minimalizované palivové články na LPG


Palivové články • Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that allow the extraction of electricity while fuel is oxidized. They may operate at different temperatures ranging from 80°C to 1000°C depending on the choice of the electrolyte. Their efficiency is not limited by the second law of thermodynamics and they do not produce carbon dioxide. • Therefore fuel cells seem to be the ideal candidates for the power systems of the future. However, even though their principle is as old as 1839, when it was discovered by Sir William Grove, and despite they promise to be more efficient in converting chemical energy into electricity than internal combustion engines or even turbines, many technical problems have prevented them from being widely used. Most of these problems are borne in the materials used for their components. These components are not very robust and often too expensive. • New materials and combinations therefrom offer new perspectives and will be outlined in this lecture, especially for miniaturized fuel cells, potentially replacing batteries.

Global deliberations since the adoption of Kyoto Protocol in mid 1990s to stabilize the atmospheric greenhouse gas concentrations have yielded less than desired optimal changes in the energy policies of nations. In the years ahead, the economic growth in emerging nations, rapid urbanization, changing life styles, population growth, demands for quality built environment, cost effective energy options, and bilateral arrangements are more likely to influence the energy policies and trends. Energy efficiency and energy conservation drives produced needed short term results in certain sectors. In the near future, both the businesses and governments are likely to further pursue this path of embracing energy efficient technologies and solutions. Post-Fukushima deliberations in the media have dampened the civilian nuclear energy pursuits of many nations except for China. Discovery of new natural gas sites and fracking of shale gas are expanding the global supply of natural gas which is considered cleaner than coal. These developments will consolidate the position of natural gas in the global energy mix in the medium term. Recent push for increasing the proportion of renewable, clean energy sources in the overall energy mix has made progress but weighed down by the economic and policy changes and shortcomings of exiting technologies. Scientific innovations are likely to be catalyzed by the growing demand for mobile and ubiquitous electronics and portable energy. Scientific breakthroughs will strengthen the position of clean, renewable energies in the longer term. Sharing electricity beyond borders via interconnected grids is another feasible solution on the horizon for effective utilization of energy when and where it is needed.

Reactive sorption enhanced reforming (ReSER) is a modified hydrogen production method of methane steam reforming by using CaO-based CO2 adsorbent for CO2 capture. The remove of CO2, which produced in the steam methane reforming process for producing hydrogen caused the breakthrough of the chemical reaction equilibrium of steam methane reforming and drive the reaction to the direction of producing hydrogen by Le Chatelier’s principle. The decrease of reaction temperature and short diagram for energy saving and CO2 capture have been reached in ReSER process. The principle features of ReSER process with using nano CaO -based CO2 adsorbent, sorption complex catalyst and the fluidized bed reactor system has been detailed studied. The adsorbent from nano CaCO3 precursor showed a fast reaction of nano CaO with CO2, and thus for the possibility used in a circular fluidized bed reactor for ReSER process evaluation. An over 95% v/v dry base hydrogen was obtained both in fixed bed and fluidized bed reactors. The ReSER has the advantages of high methane conversion, high purity of the hydrogen, lower energy consumption, and CO2 emission control in hydrogen production has potential uses in petrochemical industry and future hydrogen energy area.

Solid state lighting poteial


• Solid-state lighting (SSL) which features the use of LEDs has made steady progress in terms of efficiency, one of the hall marks of this new form of lighting. Luminous efficacy has increased from about 80 lumens/Watt, now widely available in commercial LED lamps, to twice this value for new prototypes in the laboratories. • In addition, the color quality is emerging as another attribute to push SSL to the next level of performance. Besides using SSL for illumination, it is also making inroads into horticulture applications where the spectrum can be tailored for the absorption by the plants’ chlorophyll. • In the longer term, application in white light communication which demands the device to respond at high modulation speed has seen research moving into direct generation of white light without the use of phosphors for color conversion but through the use of nanotechnology such as quantum dots and nanorods. The talk will provide a summary of the progress and the new directions that SSL made in • recent years.

Multi-dimensional Optimization of Small and Large Wind Turbine Blades • Professor David Wood • Enmax/Schulich Professor of Renewable Energy • University of Calgary Canada • Telephone: (403)220-3637 • Fax: (403) 282-8406 • Email:[email protected]


• Wind turbine blades must perform multiple functions: small, fixed-pitch blades must start quickly, and large blades must have minimum mass to minimize production costs. • Blades of all sizes must produce the maximum output power and minimal noise. The talk will describe the development of evolutionary optimization methods to solve these multi-dimensional problems and give example designs of small and large blades. • All these designs involve trade-offs whereby a small reduction in, say, power extraction efficiency can lead to a much greater improvement in starting time. Future trends in blade designs and materials will be reviewed briefly.


A binder-free process for making all plastic substrate flexible dye-sensitized solar cells having gel electrolyte

• Jyh-Ming Ting • Department of Materials Science and Engineering • National Cheng Kung University, Tainan, Taiwan • Email: [email protected]


• Binder-free electrophoretic deposition (EPD) and mechanical compression were employed to fabricate TiO2 photoanodes for use in all plastic substrate flexible dye-sensitized solar cells having a gel electrolyte. The photoanodes were composed of commercial 20-nm TiO2 powders with and without the addition of 160-nm TiO2 powders. The EPD was performed under different DC powers and deposition times to obtained photoanodes having different thicknesses. Depending on the thickness, various electron diffusion times, ranging from 8.08 to 12.40 ms, and electron lifetimes, ranging from 16.79 to 32.05 ms, were obtained for the photoanodes consisting of only commercial 20-nm TiO2. The electron diffusion time was reduced and the electron lifetime remained the same as a result of the addition of another commercial 160-nm TiO2 powders. The added 160-nm TiO2 powders enhanced the light absorptance by serving as light scattering centers. All plastic flexible dye-sensitized solar cells were made and evaluated. Compared to the 20-nm TiO2 only cells, the cells containing mixed powders exhibit enhanced efficiencies and the enhancement can be as much as 22%.

Nowadays transport sector has a great part of energy consumption and consequently greenhouse gases and environmental pollutant emission. Fuel consumption rate and greenhouse gas emission as a result of transport section activities and is depended on vehicle technology and traffic flow. The subject of eco-driving is efficient utilization of energy in vehicles. Extra consumption of fuel in an intense traffic condition is inevitable. Excess fuel consumption may be avoided, if an optimal driving strategy is implemented. Development of an optimal driving strategy witch result in reduction of fuel consumption has been the subject of the present work. Approaching this purpose an Eco-driving model has been developed in order to specify an optimal driving strategy considering traffic limitations. Introduced model can be considered as an optimal control model with an objective function minimizes fuel consumption in a defined traffic path. By applying regression analysis and an appropriate model describing traffic flow, we would define traffic velocity as a function of traffic parameters. The relation between speed and gear ratio is modeled by fuzzy logic technique. Vehicle speed and gear ratio are considered as model variables and fuel consumption of the vehicle is considered as an optimization objective function which should be minimized. In this case, the energy flow diagram from tank to wheel has been considered through developing the model. Then the implementation of the model is inspected by a case study and an optimal driving strategy is introduced finally. Evropský sociální fond Praha & EU: Investujeme do vaší budoucnosti

This paper describes the process of designing and optimisation of low exergy architecture in the tropics. The low exergy strategy used is the separation of sensible cooling from the latent cooling and the use of Building Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV) for the generation of electricity. The separation of sensible and latent cooling strategy demands for the use of low exergy emission cooling system such as radiant cooling panels. The radiant panels are responsible for the sensible heat gain, while the latent heat gain is handled by a decentralized air handling unit. The use of radiant panels has its limitation, for example the cooling capacity of the panels are highly dependent on the surface area available for cooling purpose, thus if the sensible heat gain exceeds the available surface for cooling this strategy will not be feasible. In order to curb the sensible heat gain, a certain quality of building envelope is needed to limit the solar heat gain. As a result, these amounts to an architectural design issue of multiple folds from the envelope design to the building systems involve. The paper proposes a design process that involves the use of parametric modeling, simulation programs and optimisation techniques to help architect implement and explore possible design options. A case study is described to illustrate the process; the BubbleZero research laboratory facade design. The constraint and design is built into the parametric design model and simulation programs are used to measure the design performance. The optimisation technique Evolutionary Algorithm (EA) is used to feedback and optimized the design. In the case study, four evaluation criteria are chosen; energy consumption, energy produced by the solar panels, daylighting and the cost factor. The optimisation process will try to minimize the energy consumption, maximize the energy produced to cover the consumption, maximize the daylighting and lastly minimize the cost factor of the façade. The result of the design process will present to the architect a series of different designs that will satisfy the criteria. This will greatly aid the architect in making design decision during the design process.

The access to modern forms of energy (Electricity and LPG) and its services are crucial for socioeconomic development and poverty reduction. This paper aims to present the energy access status of the urban poor in Bangkok, and to provide recommendations to overcome the barriers to energy access.The study was based on literature review, policy studies, field survey and discussion with stakeholders (energy suppliers, policy makers, etc). The study results show that the availability of modern energy access to the urban poor in Bangkok is not the main issue due to high level of electrification and convenient LPG distribution, unlike many other cities of developing countries. However, many poor households were not able to obtain legal and affordable sources of energy and its services particularly due to their illegal status and low affordability. Therefore, the issue of energy access to urban poor in Bangkok is mainly about how to make improvements to their access in terms of affordability, efficiency and services. The barriers and best practices on energy access were identified, which when considered for implementation provide an opportunity of sustainable urban plan, enabling improved and efficient access of energy to the urban poor.


Evaluation of Olivine Mineral on pH Swing Mineral Carbonation • Aimaro Sanna, Marco Dri, Mercedes MarotoValer • Energy and Sustainability Division, Faculty of Engineering, University of Nottingham, United • Kingdom • * Corresponding Author.

Indirect and direct mineral carbonation •

•

•

Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) or carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration is the preferred technology option to reduce anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere. Mineral carbonation is a promising technology in the carbon capture and storage (CCS) portfolio to control the levels of CO2 in the atmosphere. The CO2 is sequestered by accelerating the naturally occurring carbonation of magnesium silicate minerals. However, the low efficiency of mineral dissolution and unrecyclable use of additives represent two barriers for the development of CO2 mineral carbonation. A new pH-swing CO2 mineralization process using recyclable ammonium salts has been proposed to overcome these barriers. It consists of three steps: dissolution that represents the rate limiting step, neutralization and carbonation. The aim of this work is to investigate the dissolution, neutralization and carbonation of olivine (Mg2SiO4) mineral using ammonium salts. Previous assessment of silicate rocks indicate hat Mg-silicates have the advantage of being available worldwide in large amounts compared to Ca-silicates and should be preferred as mineral carbonation feedstock. Among the Mg-silicates, olivine (fosterite) is the most suitable mineral in terms of Mg content and CO2uptake. However, this mineral has not been tested yet using a NH4-based pH swing process. The effect of temperature (50, 70 and 100˚C) and time (5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120, 180 minutes) in the dissolution, neutralization and carbonation of olivine were investigated using a batch reactor at ambient pressure. The olivine and the reaction products were characterized by a series of techniques (XRD, XRF, ICP-MS, TGA, FTIR, SEM), and a kinetic analysis was performed based on experimental data on dissolution of magnesium from olivine. About 76% of magnesium was extracted in 3 hours from the olivine mineral using a solid to liquid ration of 50g/L, particles ranging from 75 to 150μm, 1.4M NH4HSO4 and 100˚C.The neutralization step was able to remove virtually all the iron impurities from the magnesium rich solution produced in the dissolution step representing an important aspects of the overall process because much purer products (hydro-magnesite and iron oxides) can be obtained. The carbonation of olivine was investigated at 90˚C using ammonium bicarbonate (NH4HCO3) and it was demonstrated hat the carbonation efficiency was higher than 75%. The dissolution rate was limited by product layer diffusion for olivine particles with a size distribution of 75–150 μm and the apparent activation energy was 31 kJ mol-1for dissolution in NH4HSO4. This work indicates that mineral carbonation can be a suitable integration technology for the abatement of CO2 emissions where geological storage is not possible and where CO2 emitters and silicate rock resources are closely located.

Nanočástice v energetice - graphen • describe recent developments in novel materials for energy applications at Caltech, including nano-fabricated meta-materials for more efficient photovoltaic cells, metallic nano-particle assisted thermo-chemical cycling for solar fuels, and room-temperature ultralow-dissipative electrical conduction in the surface state of topological insulators. • A new breakthrough in room-temperature growth of large-area highquality graphene (a monolayer of carbon atoms with the honeycomb lattice structure) will also be discussed. This major advance is in stark contrast to the high growth temperature (~ 1000 °C) typically employed by others for large-area graphene fabrication that generally results in much compromised physical properties relative to those of small pristine graphene flakes mechanically exfoliated from graphite. We consider potential impact of this new development on a range of energy applications, including solar panels and light emitting diodes with possibly unprecedented efficiency and relatively low costs, and a variety of lowloss nano-photonic and nano-electronic devices.

After the severe accident of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (NPS) due to the Great East Japan Earthquake and subsequent Tsunami on March 11th, 2011, the Japanese government was forced to review and modify its basic strategy and plan of energy and environment. Before Fukushima, Japan was planning to increase the nuclear power reactors to 68 at 2030 from 54 at 2010, and consequently increase the share of nuclear power supply to 45% at 2030 from 26% at 2010. After Fukushima, the government decided to modify the basic strategy and plan stressing the reduction on nuclear power dependence and the enlarged use of various sorts of renewable energy. First, the speech outlines process and result of the review presented recently by the government. The three options of scenarios, i.e., 0%, 15% and 20 – 25% scenarios which aim to reduce the share of nuclear power to 0%, 15% and 20 – 25%, respectively, in the 2030s, have been prepared for public hearing. Considering quite mighty public opinion supporting the 0% scenario, the government has presented “Innovative Energy and Environment Strategy” based upon the idea of reducing nuclear power as soon as possible and reaching zero nuclear power in the 2030s at latest, and accelerating green energy and much more saving energy innovations. However, due to several intensive oppositions from various domestic groups and also from some foreign countries claiming impracticality and inconvenience of the zero nuclear power policy, the government gave up its endorsement as the official cabinet decision. Next, reform of the governmental regulatory organizations for nuclear safety is introduced. Also, the comprehensive strategy for rebirth of Japan is summarized in connection with the energy and environment strategy. This talk will conclude with several discussions and closing remarks.
