From the viewpoints of energy resource problems and environmental problems, I have been researching on effective energy recycle utilization systems and sustainable living emvironments based on chemical engineering and city engineering. For example, effective thermal energy recycle systems using chemical heat pumps (CHP) were proposed and evaluated for wide area energy management.
