The world wide energy consumption increased by a factor of 14 between 1890 up to 1990 [Hol90]. In 1890, 52 % of the total energy used was produced using non-commercial sources of energy, such as fuelwood, agriculture residues and dung [Tol92]. In 1990 the worldwide energy consumption was dominated by the fossil fuels: oil, gas and coal each having a share of 36%, 19 % and 32 % respectively [Tol92]. Non-fossil energy sources, such as hydropower and nuclear power, had a small share of 9% and 4% in the world's energy consumption in 1990. The dominance of the use of fossil fuels has drawbacks. The consumption of fossil fuels is responsible for the increase in the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide by 25 % (1990) compared to the preindustrial period (i.e. before 1785) [IPC90] and is believed to be responsible for the increase in the global mean temperature of 0.3-0.6 oC [IPC90,Tol92]. This development causes many concerns. One of these concerns is that the increase in global mean temperature could induce drastic climate changes on earth. Another concern is the fact that the fossil fuel resources are not inexhaustible. Consequently the interest in and the need for sustainable energy sources has increased, among which wind energy, biomass, geothermal and solar energy are the important alternative resources. The research presented in this thesis is related to solar energy in particular as it is focused on hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H), the basis material used in a thin film solar cell. For example, the importance of the solar cell for future energy consumption has been demonstrated in a recent study performed by Shell International [Evo96], in which a photovoltaic (PV) energy share of 15-20% in the world energy production in 2060 is predicted. 1.2 Thin film solar cells At present, more than 80 % of the produced solar cells are crystalline silicon. These commercial modules have efficiencies of 12-15 % but also high production costs. The c-Si solar cell has a price-performance ratio of 5.4 €/Wp [Ach00] (Wp stands for the power produced by a solar cell under standard test conditions 1000 W/m2 AM1.5 light radiation, normal incidence and temperature of 25 oC). To become competitive with energy produced from fossil fuels like oil, coal and gas the price of solar electricity has to become at least 2.3 €/Wp [Ach00]. A price reduction on relatively short term for c-Si solar cell technology can be obtained by large scale production and innovations in Chapter 1 Introduction 25 Si CIGS CdTe 20 a-Si Cu2S 15 10 efficiency (%) efficiency 5 0 1950 1960 1970 1980 1990 2000 year Fig. 1.1 The evolution of solar cell's efficiency (on lab scale) for various types of solar cells: crystalline silicon (solid squares), CIGS (solid circles), CdTe (open triangles), a-Si (solid triangles), Cu2S (open diamonds). This figure is obtained from ref. [Sch01]. cell design, materials and production technolgoies. It is expected that the c-Si performance ratio can be reduced to 3.2 €/Wp for c-Si solar cells in 2007 [Ach00]. The current dominance of the c-Si solar cell has its origin in the fact that c-Si is the most commonly used and investigated semiconductor material in the world. Consequently the crystalline silicon solar cell is the most highly developed solar cell. This is nicely illustrated in Fig. 1.1, obtained from Ref. [Sch01], in which the history of the efficiency of crystalline silicon solar cells (obtained in laboratories) and thin film solar cells is depicted. The history of the c-Si solar cell can be divided into two time periods: the period before 1980, in which the c-Si efficiency increased up to ~15 % and the period after 1980, in which due to the rapidly developing semiconductor industry the efficiency increased up to ~25 % on lab scale. There is also great interest in thin film solar cells, since it is expected that these solar cells can be produced at lower costs, resulting in lower price-performance ratios in the near future. Furthermore, an additional advantage of thin film solar cells is that in principle they can be deposited on flexible, cheap substrates. Typical thin film materials used are copper-sulphide, cadmium-sulphide, cadmium-telluride, copper indium diselinide and hydrogenated amorphous silicon. However, as shown in figure 1.1 the development of the efficiency status of the thin film solar cells is roughly 20 years behind that of the crystalline silicon solar cell. The main reason is that the complex properties of the amorphous materials, which are not as well understood as the crystalline material properties, require a lot of research [Sch01]. Consequently, thin film solar cells had in 1999, with a worldwide module production of 25 MWp/year, a minor contribution to the worldwide total module production of 200 MWp/year [Sho01]. However, the worldwide plans and the construction of thin film solar cell production lines, promises a larger market share in the future. In this thesis we will focus on the basis material in the hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin film solar cell. Hydrogenated amorphous silicon is the most widely 2 Introduction Chapter 1 L I G H T glass transparent conductive oxide p-layer intrinsic a-Si:H - - + n-layer + metal contact Fig.

  • Comprehensive Modeling of Agrochemicals Biodegradation in Soil a Multidisciplinary Approach to Make Informed Choices to Protect Human Health and the Environment
    Comprehensive modeling of agrochemicals biodegradation in soil A multidisciplinary approach to make informed choices to protect human health and the environment Daniele la Cecilia School of Civil Engineering Faculty of Engineering The University of Sydney 2019 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Ass. Prof. Federico Maggi Auxiliary Supervisor: Prof. Chengwang Lei Abstract Numerical models are relied upon by risk assessors to predict the dynamics of potentially haz- ardous pesticides in soil. Those models may account for fundamental processes affecting pes- ticide dynamics, such as environmental and edaphic conditions, water flow, degradation, and sorption. However, those models lack the ability to account for complex biogeochemical and ecological feedbacks, and thus create challenges in achieving robust predictions. In particular, no attention has been paid on the coupled mechanistic description of microbial dynamics and soil organic matter cycling and the implications on agrochemicals biodegradation and soil and groundwater quality. This thesis aims to provide this description by developing a comprehen- sive framework through a multidisciplinary approach. Microbiological regulation of pesticide dynamics was investigated by coupling theoretical and numerical approaches with experiments carried out in our environmental laboratory or sourced from the literature. We propose the use of reaction networks to highlight the possibly multiple pesticide degradation pathways and the feedbacks with macronutrient cycles. Biochemically-similar pathways are mediated by a spe- cific microbial functional group, which represents the microbial community carrying out par- ticular functions; these functions are biodegradation of pesticides and metabolism of carbon-, nitrogen-, and phosphorus-containing molecules. We describe biochemical reactions by means of Michaelis-Menten-Monod (MMM) kinetics.
