Project Introduction. The DESTINY project aims to realize a functional, green and energy saving, scalable and replicable solution, employing microwave energy for continuous material processing in energy intensive industries. The target is to develop and demonstrate a new concept of firing granular feedstock for materials transformation using full microwave heating as alternative and complement to the existing conventional production. The DESTINY system is conceived as cellular kilns in mobile modular plant, with significant advantages in terms of resource and energy efficiency, flexibility, replicability and scalability with reduced environmental footprint. The DESTINY concept will be proved in two demo sites located in Spain and Germany, covering high energy demanding sectors of strategic interest as Ceramic (Pigments), Cement (Calcined clay) and Steel (Sinter, Iron Pellets/ DRI, ZnO), to validate the critical parameters of the developed technology in relevant environment (TRL 6). It will be implemented 2 feeding modules per demo site and 1 mobile microwave kiln module and product treatment. Influence of the DESTINY solutions in terms of stability, process efficiency and characteristics of raw materials, intermediate/sub/final products will be investigated to improve performance of the industrial processes addressed and guarantee the required quality of products. Numerical simulation tools will be used to drive the design and support the testing activities. The industrialization and sustainability of DESTINY high temperature microwave technology will be assessed through the evaluation of relevant KPIs, with Life Cycle Methodologies. With the final aim of ensuring a large exploitation and market penetration for DESTINY, technology-based solutions business model, economic viability and replicability analysis will be conducted. For guaranteeing industrial transferability appropriate exploitation and dissemination activities have been defined during and even after the end of the project.
Project Introduction. This Scope of Services is to define the Consultant's scope, schedule, and budget for furnishing preliminary design services for the Hexavalent Chromium Well Treatment Improvements Project – Phase 1, Preliminary Design Reevaluation (Project). The City of Watsonville (City) supplies and distributes potable water for drinking, fire protection and supplemental agricultural irrigation to its customers within both City limits and in unincorporated areas of Santa Cruz County. The purpose of the Project is to reevaluate, confirm, and update the preliminary design criteria for treating the City’s affected potable groundwater extraction xxxxx for hexavalent chromium (Cr6). On April 17, 2024, the State Water Resources Control Board adopted a Cr6 Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 10 micrograms per liter and the MCL is anticipated to be finalized by October 1, 2024. Previously, Xxxxxxx Engineers, Inc. (Xxxxxxx) and Xxxxxx Environmental Consulting, LLC (Corona) completed preliminary design and began final design for Cr6 treatment at selected City wells when the Cr6 MCL was originally set in 2014. After the MCL was invalidated in 2017 for administrative reasons, the City put the final design project on hold in approximately June 2017, pending new promulgation of the MCL. For this project, current raw water quality, current water production data, and the updated 2020 Urban Water Management Plan future water demands must be used as the project basis. Additionally since 2017, the City has developed a new water distribution system hydraulic model, completed various planning projects including a water system condition assessment and Capital Improvements Plan update, as well as implemented infrastructure improvements such as sewer and water piping upgrades, a new well, and plans for a new Zone 2 tank. Hence, updated preliminary design information is needed to establish the Cr6 treatment approach to achieving regulatory compliance while also incorporating the City’s current infrastructure needs. The City’s xxxxx proposed to be evaluated with the current Project are: • Xxxxx 2 and 3 (Pressure Zone 1) • Xxxxx 7, 10 (if needed) and 15 (Pressure Zone 1) • Xxxxx 14, 17, 18 and if needed, new Well 4 on Xxxxxx Road (Pressure Zone 2) • Well 19 (Pressure Zone 3) The previous evaluations and deliverables that are currently scoped for reevaluation and updating are summarized below. Previously, the xxxxx affected by the 2014 Cr6 MCL were Xxxxx 2, 3, 7, 14, 17 and 18. Various treatment and...

Project Introduction. The Activation Area within the Dholera Special Investment Region (DSIR) is envisaged to trigger developmental activities in DSIR and attract local and global investments. The Activation Area lies within the TP2E with a portion in TP4, spread across an area of approximately 22.5sqkm. The Activation Area has approximately 58kms of roads and has an optimum mix of land uses with the largest being industrial. The Canal is a 5.95km long unlined channel with a bottom width ranging from 58m to 88m, and a xxxx at the eastern end. The Canal runs through the Activation Area for a distance of 3.1km. It is intersected by six vehicular roads which cross the canal. The canal will function as a reservoir to collect and hold the storm water from the entire Activation Area. The side slope of canal is to be enhanced by providing the stone pitching on the side slope of canal.

Project Introduction. WSDOT and its partner agencies are often limited in their ability to plan and implement an integrated, multimodal system by a lack of information about how the current system is used and is performing, particularly from the perspective of users. For example, agencies lack detailed data on how transit services are used given the various demand management strategies employed by companies under the Commute Trip Reduction Act. This project obtained and analyzed nine weeks (February 17, 2015 – April 14, 2015) of ORCA transaction data from Sound Transit, with the permission of the ORCA Joint Board. These data were provided under a strict set of privacy and security controls approved by the University of Washington’s Institutional Review Board (IRB). At the end of the project, an additional nine weeks of data were obtained from the ORCA Joint Board and processed so that they too could be used for analysis. The second nine weeks covered the period between March 24, 2016, and May 27, 2016, which was shortly after the UW and Capitol Hill Link Light Rail station opened. This project demonstrated how the innovative use of data sources such as ORCA can significantly increase the information available to planners that describe current transit use. For example ORCA data can describe the actual transit rider trip making behavior, including the time required to make trips, the time required to transfer between routes, and the paths taken between specific origins and destinations. In addition, when transit fare card data are combined with other data sources—such as those that describe transit subsidies or the built environment—they allow the construction of analytical models that can be used to better predict future transit ridership, given changes in subsidies or the built environment. This project was designed to illustrate how the use of ORCA fare card transaction data can improve WSDOT’s ability to plan and deliver community-based, multimodal solutions. The project also used ORCA data to help evaluate the effectiveness of WSDOT’s transportation demand management activities so that WSDOT and participating employers can make better use of their available Commute Trip Reduction funding.
