The Large Hadron–Electron Collider at the HL-LHC
2021
The Large Hadron-Electron Collider (LHeC) is designed to move the field of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) to the energy and intensity frontier of particle physics. Exploiting energy-recovery technology, it collides a novel, intense electron beam with a proton or ion beam from the High-Luminosity Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC). The accelerator and interaction region are designed for concurrent electron-proton and proton-proton operations. This report represents an update to the LHeC's conceptual design report (CDR), published in 2012. It comprises new results on the parton structure of the proton and heavier nuclei, QCD dynamics, and electroweak and top-quark physics. It is shown how the LH…
Conjugation with carbon nanotubes improves the performance of mesoporous silicon as Li-ion battery anode
2020
Carbon nanotubes can be utilized in several ways to enhance the performance of silicon-based anodes. In the present work, thermally carbonized mesoporous silicon (TCPSi) microparticles and single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are conjugated to create a hybrid material that performs as the Li-ion battery anode better than the physical mixture of TCPSi and CNTs. It is found out that the way the conjugation is done has an essential role in the performance of the anode. The conjugation should be made between negatively charged TCPSi and positively charged CNTs. Based on the electrochemical experiments it is concluded that the positive charges, i.e., excess amine groups of the hybrid material i…
Proper sizing of energy storage for grid connected photovoltaic system
2014
Masteroppgave i fornybar energi ENE 500 Universitetet i Agder 2014 The requirement of an energy storage to a grid connected PV system, is highly desirable in cases like power outages. Another importance is to reduce the peak time electricity buying from the utility grid and discharging the battery stored energy to the load. This project investigates the optimum dimensioning of a battery energy storage in a grid connected Photovoltaic system, for the customers who purchase and sell the electricity to the utility grid. The aim was to provide an optimal method that helps electricity customers equipped with PV systems, in making decisions to install economically sized battery energy storage. Th…
Przegląd metod magazynowania energii w kontekście rozwoju technologii OZE
2017
Rozwój technologii magazynowania energii jest kluczowy dla rozwoju wykorzystania odnawialnych źródeł energii. Wynika to przede wszystkim z nierównomiernej w czasie podaży tej energii, której produkcja dla większości technologii związana jest z warunkami atmosferycznymi. Poza nielicznymi wyjątkami, czas w którym są najlepsze warunki do pozyskania energii odnawialnej nie pokrywa się z czasem, kiedy zapotrzebowanie na energię jest największe. Fluktuacje zarówno podaży tej energii jak i zapotrzebowania na nią mogą mieć charakter krótko, średnio lub długookresowy. Jest to duże ograniczenie, które można w pewnym zakresie można rozwiązać poprzez magazynowanie energii, w różnych jej formach: energi…
Bacterial bioaerosol in the warehousing area of food industry facility
2014
Branża spożywcza zwraca coraz większą uwagę na etap magazynowania surowców i produktów gotowych. Mikrobiologiczne zanieczyszczenie surowca czy produktu gotowego w wyniku błędów przy magazynowaniu może generować straty ekonomiczne dla przedsiębiorstwa. Celem pracy była ocena stanu bioaerozolu bakteriologicznego magazynów w wybranym zakładzie przemysłu spożywczego. Materiał badawczy stanowiła mikroflora bakteryjna wyizolowana z powietrza w strefie magazynowej wybranego zakładu przemysłu spożywczego. Analizie zostały poddane cztery pomieszczenia: magazyny produktów (MPI, MPII), magazyn techniczny (MT) oraz magazyn opakowań jednostkowych (MPJ). Badania wykonano metodą sedymentacyjną Kocha w trz…
Digital Solutions in the Forest-Based Bioeconomy
2019
This chapter aims to illustrate the potential and significance of forest-based industry to take the lead in the sustainable development of the bio-based economy under digitalization. The digital solutions are transforming the forest-based industry by enabling the real-time end-to-end supply chain visibility, stock level optimization, demand planning, and real-time order status tracking and transparent, speedy, and hassle-free order fulfillment. In addition, increasing diversification corresponds to eco-consciousness, and shift in people’s preferences induces the transformation of forest-based bioeconomy into a digital platform industry. Further, this chapter will highlight the circular econ…
Effects of Packaging on Shelf-Life and Quality of Minimally Processed Fennel
2011
Fennel is not a widespread product among minimally processed vegetables, due to the fast deterioration mainly caused by browning of the cut surfaces, even during cold storage. In order to extend the shelf-life of fresh-cut fennel, the influence of different packaging techniques was studied. Sliced fennel, dipped in citric acid solution (0.5 %), was placed in polystyrene trays, sealed with PE film or vacuum packaged in PE bags and stored up to 14 days at 4°C. During this period weight loss, soluble solid content, pH, color and firmness were evaluated. Minimally processed fennel packed in sealed trays and coldstored at 4°C, extended its shelf life to 14 days maintaining acceptable quality. Fe…

Recreational use of water storage reservoir in the municipality of Kluczbork
2015
Water storage reservoir in the Kluczbork municipality in Ligota Zamecka is located on the Stobrawa river. In 1997 the river flooded surrounding towns and villages. It was decided to build a reservoir that during successive flood states would protect residents. The aim of this study is to analyze the possibility of using water reservoir in Kluczbork municipality for recreation and tourism purposes. The results of two surveys conducted among residents of Ligota Zamecka have been analyzed. The residents could express their opinion about the project. The first questionnaire was conducted at the time when local community was only aware of the project to build retention and recreation reservoir i…
Directionlets: Anisotropic Multidirectional representation with separable filtering
2006
In spite of the success of the standard wavelet transform (WT) in image processing in recent years, the efficiency of its representation is limited by the spatial isotropy of its basis functions built in the horizontal and vertical directions. One-dimensional (1-D) discontinuities in images (edges and contours) that are very important elements in visual perception, intersect too many wavelet basis functions and lead to a nonsparse representation. To efficiently capture these anisotropic geometrical structures characterized by many more than the horizontal and vertical directions, a more complex multidirectional (M-DIR) and anisotropic transform is required. We present a new lattice-based pe…
