The influence of schedules of open office occupants’ presence on building’s energy demand
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)Many studies show, that there is a difference between actual and design energy consumption in energy efficient and sustainable buildings. As a rule, buildings consume more energy than it has been foreseen at the design ... -
Correct selection of the ORC system parameters for the exhaust gases heat source
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)Contrary to appearances, ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) systems should not be selected for the highest available temperature of the upper heat source. This approach allows, of course, to achieve the highest energy efficiency, ... -
Climate change – analysis of indicators
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)Progressing climate change poses a major threat to the Earth. According to a UN report, reducing global warming to below 1.5 °C offers hope for maintaining the current quality of human lives and for protecting the environment. ... -
Modelling of incident wave sound absorption coefficient of paper sludge panels
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)Paper sludge is the water treatment waste, which produced during paper production. Paper sludge (PS) waste utilization is the common problem in the EU and internationally. According to authors Frías et al. paper sludge is ... -
Opportunities and barriers to the development of Poland in the field of renewable energy sources as compared to the European Union
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)Today, almost all of civilisation is based on energy. To a large extent, energy is being continuously acquired from non-renewable raw materials deposited in the Earth’s crust. Renewable sources provide alternative, infinite ... -
Perspectives of usage of seamless and fiber basalt filament for construction and rehabilitation of motor roads and airfields
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)In recent years, the number of heavy vehicles has increased on the roads of Ukraine. But coatings that were built long ago and according to the old standards do not withstand overhauls. This leads to premature destruction ... -
Innovative geoinformation systems for the design of communication paths
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)The article analyses the volume of passenger traffic from 1990 to 2019 for land, water and air transport. From the materials obtained and the experience of the networks of European and world high-speed railways, goals are ... -
Investigation of forest area change in the 19th–21st century using military topographic maps
(11th International Conference “Environmental Engineering” (ICEE-2020), 2020)Long-term changes of the Earth’s cover are imperceptible.
