Environmental comparison of hydrogen production technologies

Authors Schropp, Elke; Gaderer, Matthias Abstract Hydrogen plays an important role in the future energy system due to the increasing share of renewable energy. On the one hand, hydrogen can store surplus electricity using water electrolysis, but on the other hand, hydrogen can also contribute to the decarbonization of the heat and the mobility sector [...]

Circular Business Model based on biofuels production from organic wastes

Authors Muradin, Magdalena; Harazin, Paulina; Kulczycka, Joanna; Verhe, Roland; Clerq, Gilles Abstract The management of refused derived fuels (RDF) in the light of development of circular economy seems to be very important issue. Currently the RDF fraction is mainly landfilled or incinerated. The solution changing this situation and replaying for the waste management hierarchy can [...]

Supporting early-design decisions with LCA: comparison of several architectures of electrochromic displays for anticounterfeiting application

Session MO.3.A || Sustainable Chemicals and Materials Authors Glogic, Edis; Futsch, Romain; Rougier, Aline; Sonnemann, Guido Abstract Electrochromic devices, ECDs, are used in innovative systems for energy saving (e.g., smart tinting windows) and Internet-of-Things, IoTs. For the later, Electrochromic displays , can support information exchange and autonomy of conventional and novel products while consuming very [...]
