The promotion of sustainability has resulted in the development of various low carbon technologies and strategies to contribute to building sustainable communities, such as reasonable design of sustainable housing, green roof system, building integrated photovoltaic system, building attached photovoltaic system, solar-powered integrated energy system including heating, air-conditioning, natural ventilation and hot water supply, as well as heat pump technologies.
The individuals could purchase water saving retrofitting in their residual buildings to reduce water consumption, such as the application of water saving tap, water saving flushing equipments of toilet and water saving shower, smart IC card control system, washing and showering wastewater for flushing toilet, irrigating landscape and spraying roads, rainwater collection by rainwater hopper, rainwater infiltration measures system.

And then low-temperature water are injected into the production wells, heat exchange through seepage, convert low-temperature water into a high temperature and pressure of supercritical fluid, which will be extracted from the production wells supercritical fluid to the ground.
The cooling water are injected to the heat exchange system underground again by the high-pressure pump for recycle.
In 2009, China Energy Research Society geothermal Professional Committee and China Geological Environmental Monitoring Institute conducted field visits the use of HDR development in the Cooper Basin, Australia.
Therefore without the need for artificial high pressure, water flow can exchange via fault.
Through the water cycle test, we obtain heat exchange system parameters.

The determined physical and mechanical properties were: flexural rupture strength and water absorption.
This issue has motivated professional associations, universities and governmental institutions to seek viable solutions for the increasing accumulation of wastes not only in landfills but also in rivers, oceans and in the atmosphere, as a whole.
These specimens were tested for water absorption [5] and three points bending flexural strength [6].
Water absorption and flexural rupture strength of the investigated compositions.

Choose pumpkin as raw material for processing, wash it with tap water to the dirt, and the gap with a brush to scrub clean.
Adding different amount of pumpkin powder, the results of water absorption and formation time of the dough were shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1 The water absorption of flour and the formation time of the dough Figure 1 was shown that, with the amount of pumpkin powder increased, the water absorption of flour was decreased, in addition level range of 0 to 5% of the water absorption decreased with the less obvious, but with the amount of pumpkin flour continue to increase, decrease water absorption speed, when the addition level of 7% pumpkin powder, the dough's water absorption of only 59.2%, lower than the control (high-gluten flour) and water absorption.
Conclusions On the nutritional value of homemade pumpkin powder, testing, results showed that the pumpkin powder with water 3.90g/100g, ash 4.30g/100g, fat 4.09g/100g, crude fiber 21.06g/100g, protein 3.50g/100g, carbon and water compounds 63.73g/100g, calcium 301.57mg/100g, iron 16.95 mg/100g, Phosphorus 223.95 mg/100g, the pumpkin powder is low fat, high dietary fiber, high calcium foods.

The hot water temperature is set as 60℃, which is also the stable water temperature in the hot water storage tank, and the cold water temperature varies in different seasons.
Water Piping and Tank Diagram Fig.2.
When the water temperature in the tank is below 50℃, the device will start to heat water to ensure sufficient hot water supply.

Introduction
The evolution of dentistry materials is being more and more influenced by the incessant pursuit for aesthetics, especially due to our society structure and media impulse, which dictates the standard to be followed in order to obtain health, personal and professional success.
Among the several options of ceramic material existent in the dental market, the ceramics based on lithium disilicate, or glass-ceramics, have been gaining large acceptance by the professionals of the area, especially by associating resistance, aesthetics results and ease in the laboratorial stage.
It was also produced 16 rectangular pellets of zirconia-reinforced lithium silicate ceramics Suprinity® color A1, measuring about 10mm X 6mm X 2mm, from Suprinity® blocks which were cut with a Isomet 1000 cutter with a diamond disc and water-cooled.
After that they were washed in running water and cleaned in an ultrasonic tub for 5 minutes.

Changing temperature will increase air and water temperatures, reduce frost days, increase sea level, and glaciers, permafrost, and sea ice.
In 2004,The low energy office (LEO) building which is located in Putrajaya, built as a evidence and demonstration project by the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communication [8].
On that basis, this study focused on the building sector professionals and policy makers to find or to improve systems that consumes renewable energies such as solar energy and wind that uses nonrenewable energy and electrical reduction in Malaysia and Asia Pacific countries’ residential buildings.
