SUSTAINABILITY ASSESSMENT OF THE ENERGY SYSTEM OPTIONS OF A POWER PLANT THROUGH MULTI-CRITERIA ANALYSIS
Most of the electricity generated in the Republic of Serbia is produced in thermal power plants that burn lignite. The strategy for the development of the energy system is: construction of new power plants based on lignite and natural gas with higher energy efficiency, rehabilitation and modernization of existing plants and accelerated use of...

THE POTENTIAL FOR USING SOYBEAN STRAW IN THE CREATION OF BUILDING MATERIALS
Many countries around the world focus on environmental preservation and reducing industry's impact on climate change. Considering that the construction industry accounts for around 40% of global pollution, the majority of which is caused by energy use and more than a quarter by the materials themselves, the building sector offers huge potenti...

THE POSSIBILITY OF USING POLYMER-BASED PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS FOR THERMAL ENERGY STORAGE
Phase change materials (PCM) are attractive energy storage technologies due to their high energy storage density and the ability to reversible absorb and release thermal energy at a nearly constant temperature. Polymers and polymer-based eutectic mixtures are promising PCMs. This study aims to investigate heat properties (melting temperature ...
