Tran, Thomas T. D. | System scaling approach and thermoeconomic analysis of a pressure retarded osmosis system for power production with hypersaline draw solution: A Great Salt Lake study | Osmotic power with pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) is an emerging renewable energy option for locations where fresh water and salt water mix. Energy can be recovered from the salinity gradient between the solutions. This study provides a comprehensive feasibility analysis for a PRO power plant in a ... | Pressure retarded osmosis; Power generation; Renewable energy; Hydroelectric; Levelized cost | 2017-06 |

Zhou, Xuesong | Dynamic origin-destination demand estimation using automatic vehicle identification data | Abstract-This paper proposes a dynamic origin-destination (OD) estimation method to extract valuable point-to-point splitfraction information from automatic vehicle identification (AVI) counts without estimating market-penetration rates and identification rates of AVI tags. A nonlinear ordinary leas... | | 2006 |

Eckhoff, David W. | Drought happens: get used to it! Will technology help us to survive? | Drought is not the most popular subject in the world. Actually, as opposed to death, I think there are some bright spots in the drought mitigation future. I will review some of these in this lecture, but I'm also going to discuss some of the downsides of drought, because you can't have one without t... | Wastewater reclamation; Tiered water rates | 2002-09-10 |

Lenart, Joshua Bela | The Blue Castle project: a feasibility study of the proposed nuclear power plant in Emery County, Utah along the Green River | With an increasing population in Utah, specifically in the Salt Lake Valley, the demand for energy is rapidly growing each year. Currently, Utah's electric grid is largely produced by burning coal, natural gas, and other fossil fuels. In the past, supplying Utahns with electricity from these forms h... | Blue Castle; Utah; Nuclear power plant; Emery County | 2015-08 |
