工研院與中鋼攜手,廢熱回收發電超環保

 

數位時代網站|撰文者:劉建宏發表日期:2012-10-01

煉鋼廢熱也能回收發電!工研院今年7月甫獲全球百大科技獎的「TEMM熱電材料及模組技術」是一針對低溫廢熱開發的中小型系統,利用模組上下兩端溫差發電,適用於溫度低於300℃之廢熱源回收,而且可與汽電共生及空氣預熱互補。

這項技術在經濟部技術處科技專案支持研發下,已在中鋼公司加熱爐壁建置200W級的小型示範熱電發電系統,在模組效率提升及系統最佳化設計後將陸續擴大應用至中鋼其它爐體及廠區。

工研院材化所蘇宗粲所長表示,美日歐等國均積極投入工業廢熱及汽車廢熱等回收應用開發,以有效大幅降低二氧化碳排放量,全球目前熱電產品應用約有5億美元市場規模,預估2020年達30億美元,是一極具發展潛力的新興市場。

雖然目前已有汽電共生及廢熱鍋爐等高溫工業廢熱回收技術在使用,但佔絕大部分的300°C以下工業廢熱卻無有效的回收技術,以二氧化碳排放量較大的汽車、石化、鋼鐵、煉油及水泥等產業來看,雖已盡力進行廢熱回收,仍有相當高比例的低溫廢熱藉由煙道或爐壁排至大氣中,若利用熱電發電技術進行廢熱回收,將可大幅減少台灣碳排放量,還可兼具產生電力及節能功效。

中鋼公司技術副總王錫欽表示,目前內部與工研院在加熱爐壁進行小型應用回收合作,結合中鋼獨特的熱源產業特性及具備材料、熔煉及熱場分析的核心技術,建立中鋼的熱電發電技術,預期使中鋼低溫廢熱回收比例從現階段之0%提高至20%以上,達到節能、減碳與減廢的三重功效。

此外,「TEMM熱電材料與模組技術」除適用在鋼鐵廠,未來也可擴大在石化、水泥、陶瓷、造紙、焚化爐等產業進行廢熱回收應用,提昇相關產業能源使用效率,推動台灣產業邁向新應用階段,強化市場競爭力。

(圖說:廢熱回收也可以用在手機充電!工研院「TEMM熱電材料與模組技術」可應用在野外求生,將烤火燃燒所產生的熱,透過熱電模組轉換成電做為USB電源,供夜間照明或手機及衛星導航充電之用。)

Buying signal appeared after Bernanke's QE3 announcement

2330 one of the heavy weighted company of TAIEX (Taiwan Capitalization Weighted Stock Index) showed the buying signal after Bernanke's QE3 announcement.

I believed this will raise TAIEX for a while. Perhaps the end of Oct. 2012.

Remove noise while adjusting the volume controller

Have you ever encountered the loud noise when you try to adjust the volume of any speaker?
I met that a lot in my life!
That won't trouble me after today. ;)

I googled this issue from the website.
And the answer is very very simple and easy.

All you need is one Q-Tips and 1ml or less of alcohol.

  1. Turn off the power, of course.
  2. Use the Q-Tips and get a little alcohol on it
  3. Drip the alcohol to the bottom part of the volume controller (the part connect to panel) 
  4. Adjust the volume controller from the lowest part to the loudest part one or two times.
  5. And guess what, the noise is gone!
  6. If its still there maybe there is really some problem with your volume controller. 
Hope this helps.

Introduce Microsoft Office Live Meeting

Today I participated one Microsoft event.

It requires the participants to download Microsoft Office Live Meeting.

After looking over the functions and some features, I decided to write this article to let the other similar products have a standard or idea to follow.

This is the screenshot after I logged in.

image

The feedback part. I think this one is brilliant and useful. Use different color to indicate different requirement.

But for now, I think microsoft only leverage the Need Help.

image

The Attendees, display the attendees as a virtual meeting room.

You can also view the other attendees's name in this function.

image

The Shared Notes. I think this is also a good idea to share some notes to the other attendees.

image

The Handouts. I think this part is good, too. But unfortunately, I was not able to see this part any more during the session.

image

Q&A, this one many products offered, too. But it is more like a real situation, you raise your hand, and ask questions.

image

The Meeting, a summarized information of this meeting, press Exit if you want to escape from the meeting 吐舌頭.

image

 

Voice & Video, I can control the volume my self.

 

image

Conclusion

Technology really helps and changes our life a lot.

I personally would recommend any business leverage Microsoft solution for the remote meeting purpose.

As of the other similar products, please include at least all the functions Microsoft provided.

經關閉後 Word 2010 已經可以正常開啟
客服人員是否為藍芽驅動程式版本問題

作業系統 : Win7 (x64)專業版

~Weilin~網友,您好


您所反應的問題,為Motorola Bluetooth驅動引起Word發生錯誤狀況,相關單位已
與廠商協調修改驅動程式。
在此同時,建議您可以於WOLD 2010內選擇 檔案 > 選項 > 增益集 > 下面管理 >
選擇COM 增益集 > 執行 > Send to Bluetooth不勾 > 確定,以解決此問題。

The Windows 8 Consumer Preview Review

The Windows 8 Consumer Preview is released for a while.

I just installed it on my old Acer TM3274 which was previous installed Windows 7.

Today I'll introduce you some of noticable functions which I feel special. 微笑 

Start

The start now is a very Big one.  And for those with big icon and background color these are the new UI called Metro UI.

Not only display the icon but also show some information based on the apps.

image

As of the others, these are the traditional program which will go back to desktop and run on that screen. And you can arrange the icons the way you like, and it will automatically generate a gap to distinguish the groups.

image

Store

Just like the other apps store, I think there will be more and more apps on this store.

image

Xbox Live games

This should be able to connect to your xbox live account, but I think mine has some problem with it.

image

Just display an error code to me. And this is just a consumer preview, isn't it?

image

Maps

With full screen map, this is really convenient and you can see a lot of things. I think no need to have a high resolution screen or bigger panel after the Windows 8.

image

Internet Explorer

This is the Metro UI IE, the traditional IE still can be found on the desktop. Note that the URL is below instead on the top now.

image

Press the pin, and you'll see there is a Pin to Start option here.

image

After you pinned it, it will be displayed under Pinned.

image

Desktop

And the first thing I was very confusing is how do I switch my program? Alt+Tab is a good idea. But what about the touch tablet?  The answer is in the bottom right corner. Try to move your mouse (or finger I guess) to the bottom right. And you'll see the Search, Share, Start (This is the way you go back), Device and Setting.

image

Setting, More PC Settings

image

There was a picture password, which you can have 3 points in sequence as your password. I think this is very convenient for those who use the panel.

But after I switched to live messenger account, the option is no longer exist now.

image

Conclusion

According to these improvements, I think Microsoft finally done something right.

With Metro UI, and full screen apps, I think people will really attracted by  Windows 8.

Especially those who don't have any tablet yet and familiar with Windows.
