“Wave-powered desalination – a cheaper alternative for #watersecurity ?” Monday, 12 August 2019 “A #wavepowered , modular #desalination system set for roll-out in Cape Verde claims to produce #drinkingwater at a third of the price of conventional systems. Can it succeed while others are struggling?” “Harnessing the #renewableresource of #oceanwaves ” “A wave-powered #desalinationsystem is gathering momentum in a bid to target off-grid, coastal communities in developing nations facing #watershortages “ “Designed to harness free, #renewableenergy in the form of ocean waves, the Wave2O process has been designed by Boston-based Resolute Marine Energy.” “Under development for a decade, the company recently made the finals of MIT’s Solve Challenge, titled: “How can coastal communities mitigate and adapt to climate change while developing and prospering?”” “How does wave-powered desalination work? Several #waveenergyconverters (#WECs) pressurize seawater, which is then piped ashore to directly drive a seawater #reverseosmosis (#RO) desalination system.” “Simply put: a series of paddles are moved forwards and back by the waves and the resulting energy is then harnessed to filter #seawater .” “The main feature, according to Ceberio, is that it uses “no electricity in the manufacturing process”.” “Optimal wave height for Wave2O is between 0.5-3 metres, and the system is deployed near to the proximity of the shore, so that “it can be easily maintained”, said the COO.” “System capacity ranges from 500 cubic metres of water per day at the lower end, right through to 4,000 cubic metres at the largest. This can meet the water needs of 5000 people, right the way through to 40,000, respectively.” “Estimates show the cost to produce one cubic metre of water is $1.25.” https://lnkd.in/ePuvXkjq Source- original post Read all my posts #MariusPreston

Here are some of the most famous carbon capture projects worldwide: 1.Sleipner Project (Norway): The first large-scale CCS project, capturing 1 million tonnes of CO₂ annually since 1996, stored in the North Sea. 2.Quest Project (Canada): Captures over 1 million tonnes of CO₂ yearly from oil sands, supporting hydrogen production. 3.Boundary Dam (Canada): The first commercial-scale CCS at a coal plant, capturing 1 million tonnes of CO₂ annually. 4.Petra Nova (USA): Captures 1.6 million tonnes of CO₂ annually from a Texas coal plant, used for enhanced oil recovery. 5.Gorgon Project (Australia): Captures 3.4 to 4 million tonnes of CO₂ yearly from LNG production, injected underground. 6.In Salah Project (Algeria): Captures 1 million tonnes of CO₂ annually from natural gas operations in the Sahara. 7.Snøhvit Project (Norway): Stores up to 700,000 tonnes of CO₂ annually from natural gas beneath the Barents Sea. 8.Shute Creek (USA): Captures up to 7 million tonnes of CO₂ yearly from natural gas processing. 9.Kemper County (USA): Designed for 3 million tonnes of CO₂ capture from coal gasification, later shifted to natural gas. 10.Acorn Project (Scotland): Aims to capture 5-10 million tonnes of CO₂ annually by 2030, repurposing oil and gas infrastructure. These projects are key in reducing CO₂ emissions and supporting global sustainability goals. #ConstructionManagement 🌱 #CarbonCaptureUnit 🌱 #Sustainability 🌱

Existing seawater desalination with Reverse-Osmosis (RO) technology in TUNISIA requires a connection to the main electricity grid-fossil fuel based power. Procuring energy in this way is expensive, and creates additional demand for fossil-fuel-derived energy (more import of fossil fuels to produce more electricity which expand The Energy Trade Balance Deficit). There is therefore a need to develop desalination systems that capture #Energy (#Heat, #Steam,#Industrial_Waste_Heat, #Electricity ) from RENEWABLE sources separate from the main electricity grid-fossil fuel based power-and avoid a Widening of The Energy Trade Balance Deficit. #TUN #الأمن_المائي_مسؤولية_الجميع #الحياد_الكربوني #الحياد_المناخي #المستقبل_النظيف Wissal Ayadi Nachêet Azzouz Hamza Belloumi hassen belwaer  Sami Bennour hatem ben amara Soufiane Ben Farhat  Moez BEN GHARBIA Wassim Ben Larbi Walid Ben Rhouma  Skander Brahim Oussama Chaouali Afef Gharbi Mohamed Khammessi Naoufel Ouertani saafi oussama Younsi Sonia Ministère de l'Industrie, des Mines et de l'Énergie SONEDE National Company of Water Exploitation and Distribution « SONEDE » STEG Tunisie Société Tunisienne de l'Electricité et du Gaz (STEG) Agence Nationale pour la Maîtrise de l'Energie ANME #ANME #STEG #SONEDE #PNUD  #UNEP  #ADFD  #IsDB #FEAD #CEWEP #EURIC #MWE #ISWA #ESWET  #UNECE #UNECA #JICA #Doosan #DoosanLentjes #DoosanEnerbility #DoosanLentjesCzech #Waste #WasteIncineration #WasteToEnergy #EnergyFromWaste #WtE #EFW #Heat #SteamBoilers #SteamTurbines #HeatRecovery #WasteHeatRecovery #power #PowerGeneration #energy #ThermalEnergy #ThermalWasteTreatment #Electricity #ElectricityGeneration #Desalination #ReverseOsmosis #Distillation #Water #CleanEnergy #CCUS #CCS #CarbonCapture #CarbonReduction #NetZero #CarbonNeutral #ZeroCarbon

CROATIA ADVANCES PLANS FOR 498 MW PUMPED STORAGE HYDRO PLANT Croatia is moving forward with plans for a 498 MW pumped storage hydro plant, as announced by the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development. The proposed Blaca project, spearheaded by state-owned utility Hrvatska Elektroprivreda (HEP), is currently undergoing environmental assessments. Situated in Sinjsko polje, Dalmatia, this endeavour represents a substantial investment in Croatia's renewable energy infrastructure. Beyond electricity generation, the Blaca project aims to enhance flood protection, augment irrigation capabilities, and streamline operations at the nearby Orlovac hydropower plant. Envisioned with an upper Blaca reservoir spanning 58.1 hectares and a lower Gala reservoir covering 74 hectares, the facility is expected to yield 986 GWh annually while consuming 1.29 TWh in pumping mode. Construction of the three-generator plant will entail significant excavation efforts. Pumped storage initiatives are gaining momentum across Southeast Europe, with neighbouring countries already implementing similar facilities. Croatia's thorough environmental assessment signifies a pivotal step forward as the Blaca project progresses towards potential approval and eventual construction. ⚡ Follow MPS (Modern Power Systems) for all the latest news daily from the global power generation industry ⚡ #MPS #power #energy #powergeneration #hydropower #pumpedstorage
