Geothermal and domestic heating. A combination that research and proposals of the companies begin to offer as an opportunity for residential. To be honest, systems of this type are already quite common in Northern Europe and the United States, while in Italy they are slowly ushering. A big hand, in this sense, is providing the introduction of targeted incentives, such as the 55% deduction for heating.

Choose a geothermal system, you're guaranteed a comfortable home environment, pleasantly warm in winter and cool in summer, using an environmentally friendly technology and advantageous from the economic point of view. The possibility of producing, even cold water for cooling during the summer, makes geothermal plants the ideal alternative to traditional systems. The big "plus" comes from the fact that a geothermal system incorporates a single system functions normally delegated to two different devices, ie boiler for heating and air conditioning to cool.

The EU proposes to share a portion of the spectrum between the various operators for mobile broadband. It warns those who would use the funds for things other than telecommunications networks will stay fresh

Rome - New initiative launched by Neelie Kroes, Vice-President of the European Commission: Commissioner for the Digital Agenda would like to push the various mobile operators to share a "piece of spectrum", so as to increase the speed and reliability of the wireless network for everyone.

Reduce the cost of heating bills is the goal of all Italian families. The selection of plants and terminals more efficient, allowing you to spend less with an eye to avoiding unnecessary and reduce polluting emissions, is very wide and varied. They range from condensing boilers, which are replacing traditional ones, to woody biomass plants up to fireplaces and radiant panels and fan coils.

Among the solutions available there is also that of heat pumps, considered by many as a solution with great prospects. These systems draw the indirect solar energy present in air, water or land and convert it into thermal energy to meet the comfort of the building, both summer and winter. To do this, the pump consumes a quantity of primary energy lower than that of traditional systems, in average 50% less.

Flexible, thin, resistant, transparent, waterproof, inexpensive and sustainable. We are talking of graphene, the material of the new millennium that has ancient roots that sink in our daily lives. The history of men is made of discoveries and, occasionally, a new material or chemical element opens the door to new experiments. From the delivery of the Nobel Prize in Physics to Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov in 2010, the research did not stop and new findings bode well for future applications of the great-grandson of graphite.

The insulation materials market offers a wide choice, which often forces workers to be long undecided on the product to be preferred to another. When you consider that all insulation materials are positive in relation to the various applications, it follows that such choices, of course, are intimately connected with the use of a certain material that you intend to do. Some have higher values ​​of conductivity, others are made from natural products, others are insensitive to moisture and water.

The selection of various systems for domestic heating, ampliatesi in recent years, has made the issue, for those who must choose to install the system and the fuel to be used, tangled. One thing is certain however: finding cost-effective solutions, in parallel with the reduction of pollutant emissions.

The latter seem to have reversed course in the period after the Kyoto agreements: EurActiv states that the signatory countries of the Kyoto Protocol have produced 7.5% less greenhouse gases in the period following the agreement until 2010. The problem of polluting emissions, concentrations of particulate matter and ozone, it is not finished, it showed the Summit in Durban, which ended with a new project, a new binding treaty to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2015.

The collection, integration, and then the use of information in a distributed environment, such as temperature, humidity, light diffusion or dispersion of a gas, is made with the networks of sensors.

The sensors are small devices, sometimes hidden inside objects very common as a digital camera, which provide us with information in the form of electrical impulse. The development of electronics has led to their increasing use versatile, simple thermometer from home, home automation, industrial applications. So, once relegated for use in measuring instruments of precision, in less than ten years, sensors have become an essential part of our daily lives.

Increase the number of workers in the workplace brings with it, and used for professional purposes, the latest generation of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets.

This is confirmed by a survey of Accenture and Trend Micro. They were taken to sample approximately 4,000 employees, belonging to 16 countries on 5 continents, and more than 300 business executives.

45% of employees said without hesitation their preference for personal devices - with a lot of applications and software in tow - than the tools offered by the company. In short, with smartphones and tablets will work better. The largest number of employees that uses 'personal platforms' is located in emerging countries. In China, India, Brazil, etc. 40% of employees have made this choice. The percentage drops to 20% among the employees of the so-called advanced countries.

The evolution of technology is fast and intense, perhaps faster the imagination of those who seek to understand this world so hectic. Following its streets, perhaps far from those drawn by those who work in the industry. The proof of this lies in the comparison between expectations and five or four years ago and the present.

At one time, the center of life 'computer' was the Pc of an individual, there is now a true center. PCs, tablets, smart phones, they are all devices that are typically used with equal intensity, because all three meet different needs both in terms of space use (eg home or mobility) both with regard to the reasons for the use (eg . working or surfing).

A thermal heating consists essentially of four elements:

• Fuel Tank

• One or more heat generators

• Safety devices, control and measurement

• Circuits of use, sorting, and channeling heat radiation
