A Systematic Study on Carbon Footprinting Calculation of Forging Industry and Its Carbon Offsetting through Renewable Energy Source
Abstract: Forging industries are considered to be the most polluting industries causing not only air but also noise pollution. These industrial units mostly contain different types of furnaces and power hammers. Furnace oil is the main fuel used because of the considerable consumption of furnace oil. In this study, forged auto components were identified and a carbon footprint assessment was scientifically grounded. An effort was made for identification and calculation of …

Optimization Strategies for Finned-Tube Gas Coolers in CO2 Heat Pump Systems: A Review
Abstract: In order to reduce CO2 emissions through increased energy use flexibility, this article examines existing energy solutions. It focuses on demand-side management tools such as electric vehicles and heat pumps, as well as storage possibilities. The aim is to shift to sustainable energy sources by striking a balance between non-renewables (coal, gas) and renewables (solar, wind). This is demonstrated by the notable decrease in the usage of oil-fired boilers and …
