Compressed air energy storage (CAES) is a way to store energy generated at one time for use at another time using compressed air. At utility scale, energy generated during periods of low energy demand (off-peak) can be released to meet higher demand (peak load) periods.

    Background: Carbon capture is a promising approach for the removal of excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in an attempt to prevent and reverse climate change. Current approaches toward capturing carbon are focused on the point of production specifically industrial and energy settings. However these methods consume high levels of energy while ignoring the other major sources of atmospheric carbon dioxide. This technology utilizes a granular sorbent material for binding atmospheric carbon dioxide.

  • Plasson provides wide range of solutions for connecting PE pipe. Plasson’s catalogue are fittings and valves of various sizes configurations working pressures seal materials and chemical resistance. General description: Compression Fittings: PP fittings and valves for connecting PE pipe to PE steel copper PVC PP and PB pipe. They are used for conveying water and other fluids in the municipal and rural sectors mining industry agriculture and used to protect communication lines from water.

  • The expectation for next-generation mobility is growing in the measure about low carbonation and the smart community of a transportation section. The super-light weight small mobility ULV which made it the concept 'to be under an automobile more than a bicycle' is developed. The number is acquired by category of mini car and a street-legal is possible. Although the development as EV is made to enhance from social requirements now the designed concept of assumed Multi-PM (Prime Mover) which made compressed air gasoline hydrogen etc. the energy source is introduced.

  • Emefcy’s EBR for industrial wastewater treatment is based on three components new to biological wastewater treatment: - Anodes (in anaerobic conditions): Where the bacterial oxidation of the organic matter occurs - Cathodes (which are exposed to air): Where the corresponding reduction reaction takes place - An electrical circuit that includes the external load connecting the anodes to the cathodes. A biofilm naturally develops on the anode oxidizing the organic matter into carbon dioxide.

  • Objective

    Wilefko wave is a novel system consisting of trains of oscillating blades with an intermediate stage of accumulation of compressed air with a threefold purpose: 1) generate electricity 2) seawater desalination and 3) pump water. It uses an energy source that is the ocean which is more constant abundant predictable and with a capacity of 800 times more energy than wind energy FEATURE 1. Multi-linear palette method increasing from 2 to 3 times the energy harvested 2.
