Adding Sliding Solar Panels to a Hybrid Car
(2014-01-19)In our project, a hybrid solar car will be redesigned in order to increase the efficiency, reduce the carbon emissions, and minimize the cost. Our hybrid car design will consist of two solar panels on the roof of the car. ... -
Advanced Engineering Building at AUS
(2014-07-22)The AUS engineering buildings lack the needed interactive technology systems. These buildings consume huge amounts of non-renewable energy. Classes can hardly accommodate the present number of students. The number of ... -
Air Purifying Billboard
(2015-02-01)The aim of the project is to analyze how the use of an air purifying billboard can reduce air pollution. -
Autonomous Waste-to-Energy Converter
(2014-07-22)4 trillion kilograms of waste are produced each year in eastern Europe and central Asia alone. The amount of waste produced is increasing exponentially. Waste is being dumped on residential grounds, in landfills and in the ... -
Build it Green
(2014-01-19)In our research we have identified three main problems in conventional buildings which could be addressed by green buildings. The three problems are: CO2 Emissions, Temperature Increase and Pure Water Shortage. These factors ... -
Building-Integrated Photovoltaic Systems
(2015-02-01)Would transparent photovoltaic cells contribute in producing at least part of the energy consumed when applied on high rise towers. -
Carbon Capture and Sequestration
(2015-02-01)Global warming is continuous problem facing our world today. Carbon sequestration could be the solution to resolving this problem. -
Clean Coal Power Plants
(2014-01-19)It talks about diversifying sources of energy in the Gulf region rather than depending on one or two sources (gas and fuel). We are planning to implement clean coal technology as another source of energy. This power plant ... -
DEFC and Panicum Virgatum to Power the Future
(2014-01-19)Many rely on fossil fuels as a primary source of energy to satisfy everyday needs of transportation and electricity. Within 45 years we will be facing a shortage of current fossil fuels thus research is being carried out ... -
Desalination Using Solar Ponds
(2014-07-22)The growing demand of freshwater is placing huge pressure on existing supplies. Seawater is a vast source to satisfy this demand. However, seawater cannot be directly consumed and therefore, desalination of seawater is a ... -
Design of Airfoils for Wind Turbine Rotors
(2014-07-22)The turbine is a machine which converts rotational energy into usable work or usable energy. This change is initiated through mechanical gearing or because of electromagnetic induction, which results in electricity. There ... -
Dubai Metro and Green Energy
(2015-02-01)With almost 149,000 daily riders, the Metro is used more frequently and with the proposed expansion, Metro should be modified to run on green energy that will benefit the city in terms of energy consumption and it’s vision ... -
Eco-Friendly Green Factory
(2014-01-19)The main objective of this report is to come up with Eco-Friendly Green Factories using different solutions as the waste produced by factories is harming the environment in numerous ways; noise pollution, air pollution, ... -
Energy Efficient Houses in the Middle Eastern Region
(2015-02-01)The Middle East is a region which relies heavily on fossil fuels for energy, the disadvantages of this are well known. Furthermore, even if we were to move towards renewable energy sources there are underlying efficiency ... -

Finding a Solution For Recycling Wastes
(2014-07-22)Over the past few years, there has been a remarkable growth in trash disposal all over the UAE, especially in Dubai, due to its huge demographic growth. Most of this trash is being disposed in large landfills in huge ... -
GCC Domestic Wastewater Treatment and Microbial Fuel Cells
(2014-07-22)Water resources are scarce across the gulf region, however water consumption is very high compared to other countries across the world. Also, waste-water production rate is increasing with the increasing water consumption ... -
Green and Smart Buildings
(2014-01-19)The project talks about ways that can be implemented in buildings to make them green and smart. The climate of the UAE is the climate that the project bases its research on. The solutions provided were chosen to be up to ... -
Green Ships
(2014-01-19)Our EMPD topic discusses how wind turbines and solar panels can both be installed on ships, in order to conserve the fuel consumed and reduce the subsequent harmful emissions. The implantation of this solution leads to ... -
Grey: A New Shade of Green
(2015-02-01)In this project, we have designed and created a system that can re-use grey water that is being wasted in buildings, which will be effective in countries such as United Arab Emirates due to their high water consumption. ...
