• Boosting biomethane yield and production rate with graphene: the potential of direct interspecies electron transfer in anaerobic digestion 

  Lin, Richen; Cheng, Jun; Zhang, Jiabei; Zhou, Junhu; Cen, Kefa; Murphy, Jerry D. (Elsevier, 2017-05-05)

  Interspecies electron transfer between bacteria and archaea plays a vital role in enhancing energy efficiency of anaerobic digestion (AD). Conductive carbon materials (i.e. graphene nanomaterial and activated charcoal) ...
• Adding value to EU energy policy analysis using a multi-model approach with an EU-28 electricity dispatch model 

  Collins, Seán; Deane, J. P.; Ó Gallachóir, Brian P. (Elsevier Ltd., 2017-05-03)

  The European Council has agreed ambitious EU climate and energy targets for 2030, including a 40% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to 1990 levels and a minimum share of 27% renewable energy consumption. This ...
• Manufacturing process sustainability advancement through a water-management value-system 

  Walsh, Brendan Patrick (University College Cork, 2017)

  The world’s current utilisation of water, allied to the forecasted increase in our dependence on it, has led to the realisation that water as a resource needs to be managed. Whilst it is generally accepted that enhancements ...
• A spatial and temporal correlation analysis of aggregate wind power in an ideally interconnected Europe 

  Malvaldi, A.; Weiss, S.; Infield, D.; Browell, J.; Leahy, Paul G.; Foley, A. M. (John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2017-03-02)

  Studies have shown that a large geographic spread of installed capacity can reduce wind power variability and smooth production. This could be achieved by using electricity interconnections and storage systems. However, ...
• A comprehensive study of the delay vector variance method for quantification of nonlinearity in dynamical systems 

  Jaksic, Vesna; Mandic, D. P.; Ryan, K.; Basu, Biswajit; Pakrashi, Vikram (The Royal Society, 2016-01-06)

  Although vibration monitoring is a popular method to monitor and assess dynamic structures, quantification of linearity or nonlinearity of the dynamic responses remains a challenging problem. We investigate the delay vector ...
