ABSTRACT
This is an exclusively prepared special issue containing selected papers from well-established events, namely, International Conference on Emerging Nuclear Energy Systems (ICENES) and some invited papers to enrich and broaden the novelty of nuclear energy technologies and its applications. The 19th International Conference on Emerging Nuclear Energy Systems (ICENES 2019) is one of the international conference on scientific, engineering, education and other technical aspects of innovative nuclear reactor design, advanced nuclear technology, energy related technology and its applications.The conference was held in Holiday Inn, Bali, Indonesia (6-9 October 2019), organized by the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) and in cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The participants come from several 14 countries and from many institutions from universities, governments, companies, society and some other organizations that shared their ideas and research results on emerging nuclear energy technologies and applications, which covered by keynote speakers, invited and contributed oral talks and poster presentations. Some selected presented paper in the conference have been elected as selected papers after reviewing process to be submitted to the Institute of Physics (IoP), Journal of Physics: Conference Series.Nuclear energy recently is recognized as secure, sustain and green energy source as an ultimate energy resource to secure the future of the mankind and its civilization. Hence, considerable research activities and international collaboration are continuing on innovative nuclear energy systems, reactor physics, radiations and its application, nuclear computational system, including fusion energy technology, fusion-fission hybrids systems, GEN-IV reactors technology, small and modular reactor (MSR) technology, space nuclear reactors, and power systems and accelerator-driven systems technologies. Some related topics are also covered related to nuclear power production;nuclear hydrogen production;hydrogen energy, energy efficiency, and management;solar energy;wind energy;hydrogen production and storage;renewable energy;fuel cells;bio-energy, etc.Finally, on behalf of the organizer and advisory board, we would like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude to all of authors during the conference and publication processes for their valuable contributions and to the members of the committee, reviewers, and advisors for their excellent works in preparing and finalizing this document. We apologize for any inconveniences for this long process of publication due to our conditions and some restrictions as well as some difficulties during COVID19 pandemicList of Organizer, Editorial Board are available in this Pdf.
ABSTRACT
Carbon dioxide capture and utilization (CCU) technology is a significant means by which China can achieve its ambitious carbon neutrality goal. It is necessary to explore the behavioral strategies of relevant companies in adopting CCU technology. In this paper, an evolutionary game model is established in order to analyze the interaction process and evolution direction of local governments and coal-fired power plants. We develop a replicator dynamic system and analyze the stability of the system under different conditions. Based on numerical simulation, we analyze the impact of key parameters on the strategies of stakeholders. The simulation results show that the unit prices of hydrogen and carbon dioxide derivatives have the most significant impact: when the unit price of hydrogen decreases to 15.9 RMB/kg or the unit price of carbon dioxide derivatives increases to 3.4 RMB/kg, the evolutionary stabilization strategy of the system changes and power plants shift to adopt CCU technology. The results of this paper suggest that local governments should provide relevant support policies and incentives for CCU technology deployment, as well as focusing on the synergistic development of CCU technology and renewable energy hydrogen production technology.
