    1. Introduction It is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore the importance of zeolites, especially aluminum rich ones including A, X and Y types [1]. Y zeolite is widely used as catalyst or catalyst support but a proper post treatment process such as dealumination should be carried out [2, 3] to increase Si to Al molar ratio to values over 3, which is not achievable through direct synthesis [4]. Zeolite dealumination was introduced regarding instability of the framework in acidic and aqueous…

    NET ZERO ENERGY BUILDINGS A Net Zero Energy Building (NZEB) is a building, commercial or residential, with zero net energy consumption and zero CO2 emissions per year. These buildings have been growing their importance in the last few years due to their key energy features: 1. Energy efficient technologies are installed with the aim of the energy usage of the building to decrease and therefore the energy demand will decrease too; 2. The renewable sources are available on-site and off-site and…

    The results showed that during summer the energy consumption for the green roof building was lower by about 5% than the energy demand for the same building without green roof (i.e., base case scenario). Besides, in winter the green roof deployment entails higher energy consumption. Altogether, the difference in the year-round energy demand for the building with and without green roof was negligible. Other studies…

    In recent years, energy policy has increased as a political issue and topic in the United States. Energy shortages and rising gas prices have always been lingering issues for the U.S. and its citizens. People want change and they don’t want to be so dependent on foreign oil. In wanting fewer imports they don’t realize that means drilling our own soil, and not many places are available for such activities. This leaves places like the ANWR vulnerable to those who are looking for local petroleum.…

    Thorium has long been the subject of scientific research ever since its discovery, and now it appears that this obscure element may now be the energy source which could fuel humanity for generations to come. While thorium has a complicated history, the element remains very important to humanity for many reasons. Discovered about the same time as uranium in the 19th century, thorium has been well known to the scientific community for many years (World Nuclear Association). In fact, famous…
