Conference Proceeding
Yang, L., Guo, C., Li, C., He, Q., Zhang, K., & Cai, Z. (2020). Modelling a field-scale compressed air energy storage in porous rock reservoirs. In Volume 4: Proceedings of 11th International Conference on Applied Energy, Part 3, Sweden, 2019

Compressed Air Energy Storage (CAES) is one of the promising methods to store the surplus solar and wind energy in a grid scale . In this study, we used a non-isothermal multiphase flow simulator to model a field-scale study o... Read More about Modelling a field-scale compressed air energy storage in porous rock reservoirs.

Finding Fair Negotiation Algorithms to Reduce Peak Electricity Consumption in Micro Grids (2019)
Conference Proceeding
Powers, S. T., Meanwell, O., & Cai, Z. (2019). Finding Fair Negotiation Algorithms to Reduce Peak Electricity Consumption in Micro Grids. In PAAMS 2019: Advances in Practical Applications of Survivable Agents and Multi-Agent Systems: The PAAMS Collection (269-272). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-24209-1_28

Reducing peak electricity consumption is important to maximise use of renewable energy sources, and reduce the total amount of capacity required on a grid. Most approaches use a centralised optimisation algorithm run by a utility company. Here we dev...

Increasing confidence in treatment performance assessment using geostatistical methods (2011)
Conference Proceeding
Cai, Z., & Wilson, R. (2011). Increasing confidence in treatment performance assessment using geostatistical methods. In Proceedings of the Sixth International Conference on Remediation of Chlorinated and Recalcitrant Compounds (213-216)

It is well established that the presence of dense non-aqueous phase liquids (DNAPLs) such as trichloroethylene (TCE) in aquifer systems represents a very long-term source of groundwater contamination. Significant effort in recent years has been focus... Read More about Increasing confidence in treatment performance assessment using geostatistical methods.

Zero-valent iron fracture reactive barriers for remediating chlorinated solvent contaminants in fractured aquifers (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Cai, Z., Thomson, N., Lerner, D., Wlison, R., Mclaren, R., & Oswald, S. (2008). Zero-valent iron fracture reactive barriers for remediating chlorinated solvent contaminants in fractured aquifers.

A novel remediation strategy, the zero-valent iron fracture reactive barrier (Fe0 FRB), is proposed to clean up chlorinated solvent pollution of groundwater in a fractured aquifer. A Fe0 FRB is an extended reactive zone where the fractures are partly...
