The wind turbine is placed on an edge of an industrial building to exploit the energy that comes from strong updrafts - also called the speed-up effect. According to Jakob Andersen, the inventor of the new horizontal wind turbine and founder of EdgeFlow, the speed-up effect increases the wind speed by up to 70% in certain directions meaning an increase in energy of up to 400%.

Now lessons learned from the ocean's largest mammals has inspired United States Naval Academy researchers to tackle one of the serious challenges of this technology: the low velocity associated with many tidal flows and the difficulty of extracting useful energy from low speed flows using current designs. They will present their findings at the American Physical Society's Division of Fluid Dynamics (DFD) meeting in Long Beach, CA.

"Bank" used to be one of those oh-so-solid words that made you feel grounded. As in "bank on it" or "you can take it to the bank." You could count on it. But since the fall of 2008, the start of the Economic Collapse of the New Millennium, "bank" has taken on new, negative meanings.

As we continue to carry around items that insist on requiring electricity to work, portable-even wearable-energy-generating systems are looking very attractive. A group of researchers has recently looked into the use of piezoelectric materials, which generate an electric field or potential when placed under mechanical stress. By placing these materials on a rubbery or flexible surface, they created a material that can generate the highest rate of energy conversion reported for similar systems. While these are still far from the market, the metrics of the flexible piezoelectrics so far are very promising.

Recycling helps in bringing down the greenhouse gas emissions caused by the manufacturing of new products. A green computing is an eco-friendly and environmentally responsible way of using the computers. The whole idea of recycling, refurbishing, and repair is based on the pillar of green computing that teaches us to reuse our electronic devices. Let's find out how recycling our used electronic devices would be more satisfying for our business.

The use of electronic gadgets is deeply rooted in our day to day life style. We use it for almost every small work. But one must be aware of the fact that if not utilized properly we will be left with nothing, not even good technology. Focus must be on optimum usage of these resources by opting for recycling methods.

renewable energy waste into energy

shared by manuel mota on 06 Jun 09 - Cached

Changing World Technologies, Inc. (CWT) is at the forefront of revolutionizing renewable energy by changing the way in which organic waste materials are utilized, thereby providing a platform for sustainable development. What was once deemed as “waste” and transported to a landfill, can now be converted to a reliable stream of renewable energy, minimizing global warming, and improving our quality of life. CWT’s subsidiaries and affiliate companies include: Resource Recovery Corporation, Inc. (RRC) was incorporated in May 1996 for the purpose of developing and marketing an emerging technology known as the Thermal Depolymerization Process (TDP). Thermo-Depolymerization Process, LLC (TDP, LLC) was formed in June 1998 for the purpose of developing a demonstration facility for the TDP technology. Process refinements were accomplished over the next five years as the TDP evolved into a more directed Thermal Conversion Process (TCP). Renewable Environmental Solutions, LLC (RES) was formed in 2000 to develop the processing of agricultural waste and low-value streams throughout the world. RES, wholly owned by CWT, has the United States’ first operational bio-refinery situated in Carthage, Missouri, producing an indigenous supply of Renewable Diesel from agricultural and livestock wastes.

The comparison between bulb, CFL and LED Lights is based on energy consumption, life and how much fuel is needed. A 100 Watt bulb burns 24*7 for a year: consumes 100x24x365/1000 = 876 kwh of electricity. While in 876 kwh of electricity, CFL can give lights for 3.3 years and LED Lights can give lights for 5 years.

Robotic and prosthetic devices may one day be equipped with a sense of touch equivalent to or better than human skin. A research team at the National University of Singapore (NUS) has developed the Asynchronous Coded Electronic Skin (ACES) system, which can sense touch at 1,000 times the speed of the human nervous system.
