Case Study on Impacts of Intermittent Renewables on Electricity Generation System Operation

Case Study about Impacts of Intermittent Renewables on Electricity Generation System Operation

This paper reviews how a strong presence of intermittent renewable generation will change how future power systems are planned, operated and controlled. The change is already noticeable in countries that currently have a large penetration of wind and solar production. The mix of generation technologies, and potentially market rules, will have to adapt to accommodate this presence. Regulatory adjustments might be needed to attract investment in “well adapted” technologies. This paper identifies open issues that deserve further analysis from a technical, economic and regulatory perspective.

Case Study on Electricity Generation System Operation

Wind, and to a lesser scale solar -both photovoltaic (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP)- will likely play a significant role for electricity production within the next two decades. Large scale penetration of intermittent renewables is expected to have profound implications on many aspects of power systems planning, operation and control, as well as on the corresponding regulation2. Those countries with substantial volumes of these technologies are already experiencing noticeable impacts on the operation and economics of their power systems. Keep reading…

Case Study on Total Dissolved Solids in Drinking-Water

Study about Total Dissolved Solids in Drinking-Water

Identity : Total dissolved solids (TDS) is the term used to describe the inorganic salts and small amounts of organic matter present in solution in water. The principal constituents are usually calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium cations and carbonate, hydrogencarbonate, chloride, sulfate, and nitrate anions.

Case Study on Total Dissolved Solids

Organoleptic properties:~ The presence of dissolved solids in water may affect its taste (1). The palatability of drinkingwater has been rated by panels of tasters in relation to its TDS level as follows: excellent, lessthan 300 mg/litre; good, between 300 and 600 mg/litre; fair, between 600 and 900 mg/litre;poor, between 900 and 1200 mg/litre; and unacceptable, greater than 1200 mg/litre (1). Waterwith extremely low concentrations of TDS may also be unacceptable because of its flat,insipid taste. Keep Reading…

Case Study on 3M India Limited

The case then describes 3M’s approach to innovation through global subsidiaries, where innovative subsidiaries in different geographies are expected to drive innovation context based on its understanding of the needs of local users. 3M strategy for innovation among its subsidiaries is somewhat different from most other multinationals that still rely heavily on innovation in its home country organization. The case sheds light on the efforts of the parent company to transfer and consolidate its innovative culture at 3M India, its subsidiary in India. While 3M has a presence in India for over 20 years, during much of this period, the emphasis on innovation was quite limited. However, with the opening of its new research from 3M and Development Center in 2011, 3M India, with the support of the parent organization, has given fresh impetus to innovation for the Indian market under its ” In India for India “strategy.

A Case Study for Impact of College Rankings on Institutional Decision Making

A Study about Impact of College Rankings on Institutional Decision Making

This issue brief seeks to understand the role that rankings play in institutional decision making and how institutions in various countries use rankings in ways that might benefit higher education in the United States. The study is based on interviews with campus stakeholders at institutions in Australia, Canada, Germany, and Japan—countries that ave their own national ranking systems as well as a presence in the international systems.

Case Study on Institutional Decision Making

A review of current research suggests that rankings influence institutional decision making in the following areas: strategic positioning and planning, staffing and organization, quality assurance, resource allocation and fundraising, and admissions and financial aid. To better understand these issues and how rankings affect them, Institute for Higher Education Policy (IHEP) discusses the ways by which institutions in the four countries incorporate rankings into their decision-making frameworks.  Keep reading…

A Case Study on Non-Government Organizations: Problems & Remedies in India

A Study about Non-Government Organizations: Problems & Remedies in India

Abstract: NGO are non-profit making agencies that are constituted with a vision by a group of like minded people, committed for the uplift of the poor, marginalized, unprivileged, underprivileged, impoverished, downtrodden and the needy and they are closer and accessible to the target groups. Фlexible in administration, quicker in decision making, timely in action and facilitating the people towards self-reliance ensuring their fullest participation in the whole process of development. The achievements and success of NGOs in various fields and the excellent work done by them in specific areas is no doubt a tremendous task that has helped to meet the changing needs of the social system. However, insprite of its achievements in various fields, NGOs are facing different problems which differ from organization to organization, region to region. In this context, an attempt is made in this paper to discuss some of the common problems faced by the NGOs and to give some remedies to overcome these problems.

Case Study on Problems & Remedies in India

Introduction: Non-Government Organizations (NGOs) have become an irresistible global force today. The non-governmental sector, also known as voluntary sector, is growing in relation to its presence in developmental activities. Its role in the sphere of human development is now widely recognized and accepted in most parts of the universe. Basically, an NGO or voluntary organisations are non-profit making agencies that are constituted with a vision by a group of like minded people, committed for the uplift of the poor, marginalized, unprivileged, underprivileged, impoverished, downtrodden and the needy and they are closer and accessible to the target groups, flexible in administration, quicker in decision making, timely in action and facilitating the people towards selfreliance ensuring their fullest participation in the whole process of development. keep reading…

A Case Study of Urban Particle Acidity and Its Influence on Secondary Organic Aeroso

A Case Study about Urban Particle Acidity and Its Influence on Secondary Organic Aeroso

Size-resolved indicators of aerosol acidity, including H+ion concentrations (H+ Aer) and the ratio of stoichiometric neutralization are evaluated in submicrometer aerosols using highly time-resolved aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) data from Pittsburgh. The pH and ionic strength within the aqueous particle phase are also estimated using the Aerosol Inorganics Model (AIM). Different mechanisms that contribute to the presence of acidic particles in Pittsburgh are discussed.

Case Study on Urban Particle Acidity

The largest H+ Aer loadings and lowest levels of stoichiometric neutralization were detected when PM1 loadings were high and dominated by SO4 2-. The average size distribution of H+ Aer loading shows an accumulation mode at Dva  600 nm and an enhanced smaller mode that centers at Dva  200 nm and tails into smaller sizes. The acidity in the accumulation mode particles suggests that there is generally not enough gas-phase NH3 available on a regional scale to completely neutralize ulfate in Pittsburgh. The lack of stoichiometric neutralizat ion in the 200 nm mode particles is likely caused by the relatively slow mixing of gas-phase NH3 into SO2-rich plumes containing younger particles.

A Case Studies on Cement Sector: Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Case Studies about Cement Sector: Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Abstract: The report describes five case studies of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction projects in the cement sector. Two of these are being implemented under the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) program of the Kyoto Protocol. As such, they have been designed specifically to reduce GHG emissions, and are projects that would not have occurred in the absence of the program. These two case studies were selected based on their potential applicability to cement plants in California. They represent two different options for reducing emissions at cement plants by blending different pozzolanic materials (finely divided siliceous or siliceous and aluminous materials that react chemically with slaked lime at atmospheric temperatures and pressures in the presence of moisture to form cement), granulated blast furnace slag and fly ash, into Portland cement product. Being CDM projects, both are international.
