  • Static Electricity Powered Copper Oxide Nanowire Microbicidal Electroporation for Water Disinfection
    Nano Letters, 2014
    Co-Authors: Wenting Zhao, Desheng Kong, Alexandria B Boehm
    Abstract:

    Safe water scarcity occurs mostly in developing regions that also suffer from Energy Shortages and infrastructure deficiencies. Low-cost and Energy-efficient water disinfection methods have the potential to make great impacts on people in these regions. At the present time, most water disinfection methods being promoted to households in developing countries are aqueous chemical-reaction-based or filtration-based. Incorporating nanomaterials into these existing disinfection methods could improve the performance; however, the high cost of material synthesis and recovery as well as fouling and slow treatment speed is still limiting their application. Here, we demonstrate a novel flow device that enables fast water disinfection using one-dimensional copper oxide nanowire (CuONW) assisted electroporation powered by static electricity. Electroporation relies on a strong electric field to break down microorganism membranes and only consumes a very small amount of Energy. Static electricity as the power source ca...

  • Clean Energy Grid-Connected Technology Based on Smart Grid
    Energy Procedia, 2011
    Co-Authors: Qi Huang, Jason Z. Kang, Li Peng, Gao Shi Yan
    Abstract:

    With the world's Energy Shortages, climate change and increasingly severe environmental pollution problems, clean Energy has been given increasingly widespread attentions. The use of clean Energy has become an inevitable trend. Based on this, the research of smart grid technolagy was brought in the research of clean Energy. Then, several clean Energy grid-connected concrol methods and techniques based on smart grid technology were summarized. Smart Grid is essential for the development of clean Energy. First, the distribution and supply feature of clean Energy requires to accelerate the construction of the smart grid; Second, the randomness, intermittent, and the unbalanced nature of peaking capacity of clean Energy needs to strengthen the construction of the smart grid; the third, smart grid technologies needs to support two-way flow model after Grid-Connected.
