Analysis of working fluids applicable in Enhanced Geothermal Systems: Nitrous oxide as an alternative working fluid
Olasolo, P.; Juárez, M. C.; Morales, M P ; Olasolo, A.; Agius, M. R. (Energy, 08/2018)This document presents a study into the working fluids that can be used at an Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) plant as a way of making efficient, large-scale use of the enormous resources offered by geothermal energy. First, ... -
Assessment of economical biogas production from chilean municipal solid waste in a decentralized off-grid strategy
Muñoz, Pedro ; Muñoz, Luis ; Cordero, C; Bibire, L; Morales, M P (Applied Ecology and Environmental Research, 2018)The management of municipal solid waste (MSW) is one of biggest challenges that developing countries are currently facing. Despite several environmental friendly alternatives being available, in Chile 90 % of MSW is ... -

Feasibility of using paper pulp residues into fired clay bricks
Muñoz, Pedro ; Letelier, Viviana; Zamora, D.; Morales, M P (Journal of Cleaner Production, 07/2020)In accordance with global estimations, approx. 15 million tons of residues are yearly generated from paper and pulp industry, which are traditionally used as biofuels or just disposed in landfills. However, residues ... -
Fired clay bricks made by adding wastes: Assessment of the impact on physical, mechanical and thermal properties
Muñoz, Pedro; Morales, M P ; Letelier, Viviana; Mendivil, M A (Construction and Building Materials, 10/2016)The addition of residues into clay matrix has been widely reported and reviewed during last decade. The heterogeneity of wastes and the lack of detailed information make difficult to provide an overall framework for comparing ... -
Grapevine Shoots for Improving Thermal Properties of Structural Fired Clay Bricks: New Method of Agricultural-Waste Valorization
Mendivil, M A; Muñoz, Pedro; Morales, M P ; Letelier, Viviana; Juárez, M C (Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering, 08/2017)For decades the construction industry has been focused on developing new materials for minimizing environmental impact and improving the building insulation envelope. The use of certain wastes as additives for construction ... -
Implications of life cycle energy assessment of a new school building, regarding the nearly zero Energy Buildings targets in EU: A case of study
Muñoz, Pedro; Morales, M P ; Letelier, Viviana; Muñoz, Luis ; Mora, Daniel (Sustainable Cities and Society, 07/2017)Lately EU has promoted several policies with the aim of reducing buildings energy impact. Despite such policies have successfully contributed to reduce residential buildings (RBs) energy consumption, non-residential buildings ... -
Influence of the type of lightweight clay brick on the equivalent thermal transmittance of different types of facades on buildings
Morales, M P ; Muñoz, Pedro; Juárez, M C; Mendivil, M A; Olasolo, P (Materiales de Construcción, 09/2016)This paper compares the equivalent thermal transmittances of different façades built using commercial clay bricks with three different thicknesses and façades made using the same method but with ceramic bricks with optimized ... -
