Limestone calcined clay cement as a low-carbon solution to meet expanding cement demand in emerging economies

Yudiesky Cancio Díaz, Sofía Sánchez Berriel, Urs Heierli et al. · 1 Jan 2017

This paper aims at assessing the return on investment and carbon mitigation potentials of five investment alternatives for the Cuban cement industry in a long-term horizon appraisal (15 years). Anticipated growing demand for cement, constrained supply and an urgent need for optimisation of limited capital while preserving the environment, are background facts leading to the…

Electrification for “Under Grid” households in Rural Kenya

Kenneth Lee, Eric Brewer, Carson Christiano et al. · 18 Dec 2015

In Sub-Saharan Africa, 600 million people live without electricity. Despite ambitions of governments and donors to invest in rural electrification, decisions about how to extend electricity access are being made in the absence of rigorous evidence. In this paper, we present high-resolution spatial data on electrification rates in rural Kenya in order to quantify and…

Utilizing publicly available satellite data for urban research: Mapping built-up land cover and land use in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

Ran Goldblatt, Klaus Deininger, Gordon Hanson · 1 Jan 2018

Urbanization is a fundamental trend of the past two centuries, shaping many dimensions of the modern world. To guide this phenomenon and support growth of cities that are competitive and sustainably provide needed services, there is a need for information on the extent and nature of urban land cover. However, measuring urbanization is challenging, especially…

Feasibility study of an electrodialysis system for in-home water desalination in urban India

Kishor G. Nayar, Prithiviraj Sundararaman, Catherine L. O’Connor et al. · 18 Dec 2016

Poor quality of drinking water delivered to homes by state utilities, and a large reliance on brackish ground water resources in parts of urban India, has resulted in the adoption of in-home water treatment solutions. The only existing in-home water treatment solution capable of desalination is reverse osmosis (RO). However, existing RO products can recover…

Design thinking in development engineering education: A case study on creating prosthetic and assistive technologies for the developing world

Bryan J. Ranger, Aikaterini Mantzavinou · 1 Jan 2018

A human-centered design thinking approach has been applied to a course at the MIT D-Lab on creating low-cost prosthetic and assistive devices for the developing world. Teams of students with diverse backgrounds are paired with international stakeholders and industry partners to tackle real-world prosthetic technology needs, learn the design process through interactive lectures and workshops…
