Abstract:
Soaring energy demands are inevitable because of the continual increase in the global population as well as the greater reliance on electronic technologies. Current energy generation systems are highly dependent upon fossil fuels, for which the imminent risks and limitations are well known. First of all, we are confronting an energy crisis due to the depletion of these fossil fuels. However, current sustainable and renewable energy sources are not in a position to fully replace them as of yet. In fact, less than 10% of energy that is generated is from renewable energy sources, such as from hyd

The Internet infrastructure, comprising both network and cloud facilities, has reached huge capacities but its development has not been compensated at the same rate as for its energy consumption. The energy consumption and the concomitant green house gases (GHG) emissions of the Internet are becoming major issues in the information and communication society. In such a context, there is a lack of a comprehensive energy-oriented paradigm for the Internet infrastructure that takes into account the absorbed energy, the emitted GHGs and the availability of renewable energy sources.

Currently the majority of these waste fractions are disposed of by landfill, land-spread or incineration using natural gas. These disposal methods not only present environmental problems but are also very costly. The focus of this work was to utilise the waste

Lithuania has limited domestic energy resources, and is therefore, heavily dependent on imports of oil products and natural gas. Lithuania imported around 90% of its oil and 100% of natural gas in 2009. Particularly, after the accession to the European Union (EU), and decommissioning of main electricity generation source Ignalina Nuclear Power Plant (NPP), energy security became one of the main concerns. Therefore, it is vital to evaluate different pathways the country could take in order to achieve desirable energy security, and ensure sustainable development of the energy system in Lithuania

Abstract:
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a wide-band gap semiconductor with band gaps around 3 eV for the principal polymorphs rutile and anatase. Although TiO2 has been commercialized in applications that utilise its special chemical and optical properties, its band gap should be reduced to improve its performance, especially as an active photo catalyst. Band gap engineering of TiO2 has therefore attracted many researchers looking to extend its applicability as a functional material. Reduction of TiO2 introduces oxygen vacancies, initially forming disordered TiO2–x and eventually forming the ordered Magnél

However, wind power production requires a large amount of land and carries the risk of disrupting the landscape.

Abstract:
Swine production represents approximately 40% of the world's meat production, and swine wastes contain high concentrations of organic matter, nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P). Swine production is intensifying as meat demand increases and concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) are becoming increasingly common, making it difficult to treat the waste generated. A system for holistic treatment of swine waste produced in CAFOs was investigated in this study that sustainably generates energy and recovers N and P as saleable fertilizers. The system uses anaerobic digestion (AD) for methane pro

Abstract:
Growth in aviation has resulted in large airports that can be described as Airport Metropolises. This thesis reviews a variety of sustainable energy options that are suitable for such airports, and presents a decision support framework that can be used to guide decision makers towards the adoption of sound sustainable energy projects and practices. The thesis demonstrates use of the decision support framework via a number of case studies and outlines a methodology which could be incorporated within a Decision Support System.

Abstract:
With the raising concerns about the environment, the ICT equipments have been pointed out as a major and ever rising source of energy consumption and pollution. Among those ICT equipments, data centres play obviously a major role with the rise of the Cloud computing paradigm. In the recent years, researchers have focused on reducing the energy consumption of data centres. Furthermore, future environmentally friendly data centres are also expected to prioritize the usage of renewable energies over brown energies. However, managing the energy consumption within a data centre is challenging becau
