  • Equilibrium Gasification of Spent Pot Lining from the Aluminum Industry
    Equilibrium Gasification of Spent Pot lining from the Aluminum Industry Isam Janajreh1, Khadije Elkadi1, Olawale Makanjuola1, Sherien El-Agroudy2 1Khalifa University of Science and Technology, Mechanical Engineering Department, Abu Dhabi, UAE 1AinShams University, Environment Engineering Department, Cairo, Egypt 2Sharjeh University, Sustainable and Renewable Energy Department, Sharjah, UAE Abstract: The notion of reuse, recycle and reduce is suited for almost all streams of solid waste; including municipal solid waste as well as many streams of industrial wastes. Spent potlining (SPL) is a poisonous and potentially explosive solid waste from aluminum industry that defies this general consensus, being hazardous to reuse, non-recyclable, and increasing with over 2Mt annually. In this work, the technical feasibility of gasification of SPL through equilibrium modeling following different levels of treatment (water washed-WWSPL, acid treated-ATSPL, fully treated-FTSPL) is pursued. The model considers 12 species (CO, H2, CH4, N2, NH3, H2S, COS, H2O and Ash) including the molar ratio of the moderator (H2O) and the oxidizer (O2) to that of the SPL. The process metrics are assessed via the produced syngas fraction (CO and H2), gasification efficiency (GE) and in comparison/validation to the gasification of a baseline bituminous coal. The SPL results for each of the WWSPL, ATSPL, FTSPL, respectively, revealed GE of 40%, 65%, and 75% with corresponding syngas (CO & H2) molar fractions at 0.804 & 0.178, 0.769 & 0.159, and 0.730 & 0.218 at temperatures of 1450 oC, 1100 oC, and 1150 oC. These results suggest the potential and feasibility of gasifying only the treated SPL. Keywords: Spent potlining; Aluminum waste; Gasification; Syngas 1.

  • Green Parties and Elections to the European Parliament, 1979–2019 Green Par Elections
    Chapter 1 Green Parties and Elections, 1979–2019 Green parties and elections to the European Parliament, 1979–2019 Wolfgang Rüdig Introduction The history of green parties in Europe is closely intertwined with the history of elections to the European Parliament. When the first direct elections to the European Parliament took place in June 1979, the development of green parties in Europe was still in its infancy. Only in Belgium and the UK had green parties been formed that took part in these elections; but ecological lists, which were the pre- decessors of green parties, competed in other countries. Despite not winning representation, the German Greens were particularly influ- enced by the 1979 European elections. Five years later, most partic- ipating countries had seen the formation of national green parties, and the first Green MEPs from Belgium and Germany were elected. Green parties have been represented continuously in the European Parliament since 1984. Subsequent years saw Greens from many other countries joining their Belgian and German colleagues in the Euro- pean Parliament. European elections continued to be important for party formation in new EU member countries. In the 1980s it was the South European countries (Greece, Portugal and Spain), following 4 GREENS FOR A BETTER EUROPE their successful transition to democracies, that became members. Green parties did not have a strong role in their national party systems, and European elections became an important focus for party develop- ment. In the 1990s it was the turn of Austria, Finland and Sweden to join; green parties were already well established in all three nations and provided ongoing support for Greens in the European Parliament.

  • Challenger Party List
    Appendix List of Challenger Parties Operationalization of Challenger Parties A party is considered a challenger party if in any given year it has not been a member of a central government after 1930. A party is considered a dominant party if in any given year it has been part of a central government after 1930. Only parties with ministers in cabinet are considered to be members of a central government. A party ceases to be a challenger party once it enters central government (in the election immediately preceding entry into office, it is classified as a challenger party). Participation in a national war/crisis cabinets and national unity governments (e.g., Communists in France’s provisional government) does not in itself qualify a party as a dominant party. A dominant party will continue to be considered a dominant party after merging with a challenger party, but a party will be considered a challenger party if it splits from a dominant party. Using this definition, the following parties were challenger parties in Western Europe in the period under investigation (1950–2017). The parties that became dominant parties during the period are indicated with an asterisk.

  • The Green Party of Germany: Bündnis 90 / Die Grünen [PDF]
    THE GREEN PARTY OF GERMANY BÜNDNIS 90 / DIE GRÜNEN 1. Historical Context and democratic structure of Germany The political structures that existed before a united German state emerged were dominated by relatively small political entities, which enjoyed varying degrees of political autonomy. The Bundesrepublik Deutschland (Federal Republic of Germany) is formally only 70 years old. Unsurprisingly, this history of federalism is represented in the Bundesrepublik as well. Today we have 16 federal states. This decentralization is one of the most important parts of our democracy. Berlin, as the capital, was and is the best symbol of Germany’s colourful past. West Berlin’s location deep within the territory of Eastern Germany made it an island of the Bundesrepublik (Western Germany). West Berlin has had a very special phase after WWII that was deeply intertwined with the Cold War. With the end of the Cold War, the two German states the German Democratic Republic or GDR (East Germany) and Bundesrepublik finally became a united state again. Today, Berlin with its 3.6 million inhabitants, is Germany’s biggest city, its capital and the place to be for culture, arts, lifestyle, politics and science. Germany’s democratic system is a federal parliamentary republic with two chambers: the Bundestag (Germany’s parliament) and the Bundesrat (the representative body of the federal states). Germany’s political system is essentially a multi-party system, which includes a 5% threshold (parties representing recognised national minorities, for example Danes, Frisians, Sorbs and Romani people are exempt from the 5% threshold, but normally only run in state elections).
