Abstract

In recent years, the relationship between a country's gross domestic product (GDP) and its electricity consumption has changed significantly due to increased energy efficiency (EE) and renewable energy (RE) adoption. This decoupling disrupts conventional load forecasting models, affecting utility companies. This study has developed an innovative solution using an artificial neural network (ANN) Hybrid method for load forecasting, resulting in a remarkably accurate model with 99.68% precision. Applying this model to Malaysia's electricity consumption from 2020 to 2040 reveals a significant 13% reduction when accounting for EE and RE trends. This method aids risk management, contingency planning, and decision-making by accurately reflecting changing energy usage dynamics influenced by EE and RE sources.

Abstract

This research paper explores the application of extended-gate field-effect transistors (EGFET) as a potentiometric sensing method for pH detection within an internet of things (IoT) system. The pH EGFET sensor is integrated with a long-range (LoRa) microcontroller, enabling data transmission via a low-power, long-range wide-area network (LoRaWAN) IoT framework to a dedicated IoT application server. The framework utilizes a message queuing telemetry transport (MQTT) broker, employing a publish/subscribe message architecture for efficient data transmission. The study focuses on addressing the problem of determining whether EGFET technology can provide precise and dependable measurements in various settings. To achieve this, the data from the IoT framework is compared with data signals from a semiconductor parametric analyzer and a readout interfacing circuit serial data acquisition (DAQ). From the study, EGFET sensors provide a sensitivity of 61.1 mV/pH with a linearity of 0.9968 through the IoT method. Meanwhile, non-IoT methods yield slightly different sensitivities of 53.1 and 50.5 mV/pH with comparable linearity of 0.9984 and 0.9979. Overall, the research demonstrates the versatility of EGFET technology, highlighting its effective use in various sensing instruments, while ensuring reliable data transfer through the LoRaWAN framework.

Abstract

A persistent challenge in the petroleum industry involves paraffin wax deposition from crude oils during low-temperature conditions, complicating pipeline flow assurance due to the intricate rheological behaviors exhibited by waxy crude oil gels. These behaviors include viscoelasticity, yield stress, and thixotropy, contributing to issues like flow reduction and pipeline obstruction, adversely affecting overall pipeline performance. Mitigating this problem requires a combination of mechanical and chemical processes, with pour point depressants (PPDs) emerging as an effective chemical solution. PPDs operate by interacting with wax crystals in the oil, disrupting their formation into a continuous network and preventing flow blockage at lower temperatures. The performance of PPDs depends on factors such as base oil type, PPD concentration, and application temperature. Recent advancements in PPDs focus on developing new polymers with enhanced performance and reduced environmental impact, including those derived from renewable resources, biodegradable PPDs, nano-structured PPDs, or hybrid PPDs. Polymeric additives, such as crystalline-amorphous copolymers, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers, comb polymers, and nanohybrids, are employed to modify wax crystallization behavior. Understanding the molecular structure of these additives, fluid composition, and pipeline conditions is crucial for optimizing formulations tailored to specific petroleum fluid compositions and transport conditions, ensuring effective wax deposition mitigation.

Abstract

Benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BTEX) and chlorobenzenes are measured in all environments as part of world official pollution control programs. The health impact of these analytes increased the relevance of the validity and comparability of the measurement results. Therefore, equipment performance, implementation of test methods, and accuracy of results need to be verified through internal and external quality control programs. Herein, a new certified reference material (CRM) for benzene, toluene, chlorobenzene, ethylbenzene, o-xylene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, 1,3-dichlorobenzene and 1,4-dichlorobenzene, and m, p-xylene has been produced and characterized by an approach that is metrologically valid and complies with ISO 17034:2016 and ISO 33405:2024 standards. The reference material was prepared gravimetrically and certified values were calculated based on masses of pure components. Homogeneity results proved that the between-ampule heterogeneity was negligible in comparison with the method precision. The stability of the material was evaluated for both long-term storage and dispatch and no measurable loss of analytes was observed within one year period. The developed certified reference material with small uncertainties values will support regulatory bodies, environmental protection agencies, and testing laboratories in their efforts to improve the quality of motoring results and compliance with regulations.

Abstract

Capital structure plays an essential role in the financial decision-making of a company by strengthening financial performance and worth. This research aims to provide a literature review to identify the factors that affect insurance companies’ capital structure. The paper focuses on articles published from 2010 to 2021 on insurance companies’ capital structure in developing countries were reviewed. Three theories were identified as having common determinants: trade-off, pecking order, and agency cost. These independent determinants include seven firm-specific determinants: company size, age, profitability, growth, liquidity, tangibility, and risk along with two macroeconomic determinants: economic growth and inflation rate. The research found that the leverage ratio is the primary measurement of capital structure used as a dependent variable. Furthermore, previous studies have shown that the static data model was the most appropriate framework in most research. This research provides future researchers with information on understanding the determinants of capital structure in the insurance field.

Abstract

Solar photovoltaic (PV) panels performance is influenced by various external factors such as precipitation, wind angle, ambient temperature, wind speed, transient irradiation, and soil deposition. Soiling accumulation on panels poses a significant challenge to PV power generation. This paper presents the development of an artificial neural network (ANN)-based soil deposition prediction model for PV systems. Conducted at a Malaysian solar farm over three months, the research utilized power output data from the inverter as model output and meteorological data as input variables. The model employed the Levenberg-Marquardt backpropagation method with Tansig and Purline activation functions. Performance assessment via statistical comparison of experimental and simulated results revealed a coefficient of determination (R2) value of 0.68073 for the ANN architecture of 5 input layers, 30 hidden layers, and 1 output layer (5-30-1). Sensitivity analysis highlighted relative humidity and wind direction as the most influential parameters affecting PV soiling rate. The developed ANN model, combined with sensitivity analysis, serves as a robust foundation for enhancing the efficiency of smart sensors in PV module cleaning systems.

Abstract

The quality of drinking water directly controls many diseases and affects the growth of the human body. The provision of quality water is a major concern around the world, especially for developing countries that have poor environmental rules, insufficient water supply, and poor drainage systems. Considering these issues, this research was undertaken to assess drinking water quality in the rural areas surrounding Karachi, Pakistan. Samples were collected in the monitoring of the Pakistan Council of Research in Water Resources (PCRWR) and tested for physicochemical and bacteriological parameters (PCB) using geographical information system (GIS). Further, the results were compared with World Health Organization (WHO) standards for human consumption. An analysis of 35 drinking water samples revealed that 14% exceeded the permissible ranges for physical parameters. Moreover, 60% of the samples were deemed unsafe for consumption as the levels of inorganic substances surpassed permissible ranges outlined by WHO. All water samples contained coliform bacteria, making them unsafe, and 46% were contaminated with E. coli, highlighting the urgent need for improved sanitation and water treatment infrastructure in the area.
