Energy Technology简介 Magazine introduction

英文简介

Energy Technology provides a forum for researchers and engineers from all relevant disciplines concerned with the generation, conversion, storage, and distribution of energy.This new journal shall publish articles covering all technical aspects of energy process engineering from different perspectives, e.g.,new concepts of energy generation and conversion;design, operation, control, and optimization of processes for energy generation (e.g., carbon capture) and conversion of energy carriers;improvement of existing processes;combination of single components to systems for energy generation;design of systems for energy storage;production processes of fuels, e.g., hydrogen, electricity, petroleum, biobased fuels;concepts and design of devices for energy distribution.Fossil fuels are a limited resource, where during the last 250 years humankind has released a large quantity of carbon (in the form of carbon dioxide) that our planet had taken about 250 million years to sequester. Both concerns of energy sustainability as well as concerns about the effects of climate change are leading to the investigation of new energy sources with newfound urgency. Renewable energy sources, for instance wind and solar energy, are under rapid development and the first generations are already being commercialized. Due to the unsynchronized timing of energy supply and demand as well as new concepts for transportation technologies, energy storage is becoming an ever more important topic, too. However, traditional energy sources will continue to be a significant portion of our energy supply for the foreseeable future, and the improvement of these existing processes as well as renewable concepts for fuel development are also topics of central importance. Once this energy is generated, improvements in the efficient use and distribution of this energy have the potential to make a large impact closer to the point of use.Energy Technology is inherently interdisciplinary: important progress is made in fields ranging from process engineering (for biomass conversion and improved combustion) and electrical engineering (for power conversion and developing smart grids) to materials science and chemistry for next-generations photovoltaic devices, batteries, and fuel-cell technology. Energy Technology is well positioned as an international, interdisciplinary journal to record the progress in this field and act as a valuable resource for the energy technology community for years to come. A global energy transition is on the agenda of most governments in developed countries in order to develop a secure and sustainable energy supply, and the global energy demand is still increasing as the demand from emerging nations continues to catch up. Thus a lot of important energy research is going on—and Energy Technology is publishing on the cutting edge!
中文简介

《能源技术》为所有相关学科的研究人员和工程师提供了一个论坛，涉及能源的产生、转换、储存和分配。这本新杂志将从不同的角度发表涵盖能源工艺工程所有技术方面的文章，例如：新的能源产生和转换概念；能源生产（如碳捕获）和能源载体转换过程的设计、操作、控制和优化；改进现有工艺；将单个部件组合到发电系统中；储能系统的设计；燃料的生产过程，例如氢、电、石油、生物燃料；能量分配装置的概念和设计。化石燃料是一种有限的资源，在过去的250年里，人类释放了大量的碳（以二氧化碳的形式），而我们的星球用了大约2.5亿年的时间来隔离这些碳。无论是对能源可持续性的关注还是对气候变化影响的关注，都导致了对新能源的调查，新发现的紧迫性。可再生能源，例如风能和太阳能，正在迅速发展，第一代已经开始商业化。由于能源供需不同步，以及运输技术的新概念，储能也成为一个越来越重要的课题。然而，在可预见的未来，传统能源将继续成为我们能源供应的重要组成部分，改进这些现有流程以及燃料开发的可再生概念也是至关重要的主题。一旦产生了这种能量，这种能量的有效利用和分配的改进就有可能使更接近使用点的巨大影响。能源技术本质上是跨学科的：从工艺工程(用于生物质转化和改进燃烧)和电气工程(用于电力转化和开发智能电网)到下一代光伏设备、电池和燃料电池技术的材料科学和化学，各个领域都取得了重要进展。《能源技术》定位良好，是一本国际性、跨学科的期刊，记录了这一领域的进展，并在未来几年成为能源技术领域的宝贵资源。为了发展安全和可持续的能源供应，全球能源转型已被大多数发达国家的政府提上议程。随着新兴国家的需求继续迎头赶上，全球能源需求仍在增长。因此，许多重要的能源研究正在进行中，而能源技术正处于前沿!
