Assessment of the Materials Employed in Green Artificial Reefs for the Galician Estuaries in Terms of Circular Economy
(MDPI, 2020)
[Abstract] To exploit marine resources in a sustainable way, efficient management systems must be used such as green artificial reefs (GARs). These reefs are mostly made up of renewable and organic materials. When adopting ...
Economic Feasibility of Floating Offshore Wind Farms Considering Near Future Wind Resources: Case Study of Iberian Coast and Bay of Biscay
(MDPI, 2021-03)
[Abstract] Wind energy resources are subject to changes in climate, so the use of wind energy density projections in the near future is essential to determine the viability and profitability of wind farms at particular ...
Numerical Model to Analyze the Physicochemical Mechanisms Involved in CO₂ Absorption by an Aqueous Ammonia Droplet
(MDPI, 2021-04)
[Abstract] CO₂ is the main anthropogenic greenhouse gas and its reduction plays a decisive role in reducing global climate change. As a CO₂ elimination method, the present work is based on chemical absorption using aqueous ...
Internal Modifications to Optimize Pollution and Emissions of Internal Combustion Engines through Multiple-Criteria Decision-Making and Artificial Neural Networks
(MDPI, 2021-12)
[Abstract] The present work proposes several modifications to optimize both emissions and consumption in a commercial marine diesel engine. A numerical model was carried out to characterize the emissions and consumption ...
Analysis of the Pre-injection Configuration in a Marine Engine Through Several MCDM Techniques
(University of Zagreb Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture, 2021)
[Abstract] The present manuscript describes a computational model employed to characterize the performance and emissions of a commercial marine diesel engine. This model analyzes several pre-injection parameters, such as ...
Erosive Degradation Study of Concrete Augmented by Mussel Shells for Marine Construction
(MDPI, 2021-10)
[Abstract] This work proposes a green material for artificial reefs to be placed in Galicia (northwest Spain) taking into account the principles of circular economy and sustainability of the ecosystem. New concrete ...
Configuration Methodology for a Green Variety Reef System (AR group) Based on Hydrodynamic Criteria – Application to the Ría de Ares-Betanzos
(Elsevier, 2021-05-05)
[Abstract] For the evolution and development of artificial reefs to attain the expected results, hydrodynamics is emerging as a key factor that must be taken analyzed in detail. In particular, thanks to the hydrodynamics ...
Possibilities of Ammonia as Both Fuel and NOᵪ Reductant in Marine Engines: A Numerical Study
(MDPI, 2022-01)
[Abstract] Nowadays, the environmental impact of shipping constitutes an important challenge. In order to achieve climate neutrality as soon as possible, an important priority consists of progressing on the decarbonization ...
Nanofluid based on 1-dodecylpyridinium chloride for enhanced oil recovery
(Elsevier, 2023-02)
[Abstract] The use of nanoparticles is considered promising for enhanced oil recovery (EOR), especially when they are combined with surfactants. However, the combination of nano-sized material with surface-active ionic ...
