Le context
Improved air traffic management techniques like to avoid flying holding patterns, “green landings” and the use of relatively low speed airplanes for domestic aviation can reduce the emission of greenhouse gases substantially. Depending on their penetration up to 3% CO2 emission reduction can be achieved for green landings and 10-60% CO2 emission reduction for low speed airplanes. Moreover, these techniques will lower the NOx and soot emissions, thereby improving the air quality around the airport.
COROBOR Systems is a company that specializes in turnkey, integrated solutions for Meteorology and Hydrology.
The ability to control the frequency and amplitude of mechanical oscillations can lead to production of electrical power. Having the ability to use remote power to activate sensors and other pieces of equipment will be beneficial in in aviation diagnosis medical and construction. Key aspects to these products are mechanisms at use as well as the versatility and size of the mechanism. Researchers at the University of Missouri have worked to develop a device and process that will be a compact and versatile way to produce electrical energy.
Background: In April 2010 contamination in jet fuel caused the throttles of two engines on a Cathay Pacific flight to stick while in flight and nearly caused the lives of 322 passengers and crew on board. Such incident is just one of the examples of the dangers posed by cross contamination in the fuel. FAME or biodiesel has the property to ‘stick’ to surfaces and small traces of FAME can be found in jet fuel leading to cross contamination. At high concentrations FAME may impact the thermal stability of the jet fuel leading to coke deposits in the fuel system.
The present invention is a system-level design that is based on the novel Co-Flow Jet (CFJ) airfoil design which provides an opportunity to manufacture a new generation of aircraft based on the CFJ airfoil design.
The Pacific Community SPC is the principal scientific and technical organization in the Pacific region, supporting development since 1947. SPC is an international development organization owned and governed by 26 country and territory members. SPC works for the well-being of Pacific people through the effective and innovative application of science and knowledge, guided by a deep understanding of Pacific island contexts and cultures.
The purpose of the research underlying this report is to provide a global technology outlook for advanced biofuels from2015 to 2045, specifically for liquid transport fuels for road, shipping and aviation use. The report concentrates on the role of innovation in stimulating advanced biofuels pathways that have not reached widespread commercialization. It is aimed at a wide range of stakeholders, including policymakers, investors and project and technology developers worldwide.
A GHG profile of city of Ekuhurleni based on an inventory of different emission sources in the city. An action plan for targeted RE and EE measures has been developed for the city based on the findings of the GHG inventory. A guide for developing a GHG inventory for a city has also been developed as part of this project and can be found in this database as well - "Guideline on preparing a City-level Emissions Inventory, Analysis and Process for RE and EE Programmes".
This report is one of the outcomes of CTCN’s technology support for strengthening Bangkok’s Early Warning System to respond to climate induced flooding. It includes a mapping and understanding of the existing BMA data management system.
