Abstract

A major global challenge humanity faces today is how to strike a balance between the mitigation of environmental degradation and the achievement of sustainable economic growth. In this respect, this study applied an autoregressive distributed lag to the panel data of 28 European Union (EU-28) countries from 2000 to 2020. The study’s results confirm the existence of a positive and significant long-term nexus between environmental sustainability, renewable energy consumption, and economic growth in EU-28 countries. Furthermore, the empirical results indicate that real capital formation, carbon emissions, and other environmental factors are the principal determinants of long-term growth in the EU. Using Dumitrescu and Hurlin’s (2012) research, we found that the non-causality in the heterogeneous panel results showed long-run bidirectional causal relationships among renewable energy consumption, economic growth, and other growth determinants. Therefore, we can say that the consumption of renewable energy sources in the 28 EU countries is a reliable way to mitigate environmental pollution. This indicates that attaining the Sustainable Development Goals by using renewable energy and reducing carbon emission is feasible in EU-28 countries by 2030 and should also be adopted by all countries as an effective global policy.

Abstract

One efficient way to convert small thermally energized into effective cooling is through adsorption cooling technology, which increases energy efficiency and reduces environmental pollution.  This study's primary goal is to hypothetically examine the thermal coefficient of performing the solar adsorptive refrigerator machine operated with an activating carbon/Ethanol operating dual. The impact of different operating situations and design factors on the machine's performance is inspected and evaluated. The present double-bed solar energy adsorptive-cooler unit is modeled by thermodynamic methodology.  Then, it was analyzed to evaluate its effectiveness work under Baghdad climate conditions. For the current study, the two-bed solar adsorption cooling unit with 0.5 kW capacity input heat 11893 that operates at 5 °C for the evaporator and 45 °C for the condenser is presented. The Engineering-Equation-Solver (EES) simulation program was created and used to solve the modeling equations that predict the optimal cycle performance and evaluate the optimum reasonable values of the operation parameters of the proposed system. The pressure range for the refrigeration cycle is 2.408 kPa for the evaporation state and 23.14 kPa for the condensation state. The findings demonstrate that an optimum coefficient of performance (COP) is 0.702 at 95 °C, a 20% performance increase, which generates 39.4 of cooling water. It produced 1 kg of chilled water for 2.463 kg of activated carbon at a temperature of 5°C. The improved solar-powered adsorption systems and refrigeration technologies are appealing substitutes that can satisfy energy demands in addition to meeting needs for cooling, ice production, air conditioning, and refrigeration preservation and safeguarding of the environment with Iraq's climate conditions.

Abstract

The radioactive decay of isotopes is one of the most important sources of heat in the Earth's interior. The main radiogenic elements in the crust are U, Th, and K in granitoids. Radiogenic granites are becoming increasingly important as they support the development of the renewable energy sector. This study provides an in-depth review of the development of Enhanced Geothermal Systems (EGS) technology. Many countries, such as France and the UK, have initiated and contributed to energy production using EGS technology. In addition, this study calculates the potential production capacity of radiogenic granites in the Eastern Pontide Oraganic Belt (EPOB) and assesses their significant contribution to the Turkish economy in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The total area of radiogenic granites within the EBOP is 7116.35 km2 and these granites contain average concentrations of U 3.25 ppm, Th 16.44 ppm, and K 3.7%. The plutons studied can generally be classified as medium to low heat producing granitoids. Ayeser, Camiboğazı, and Ayder (3.36-6.98 µW/m3), which are close to the average heat production value of the continental crust (5 μW/m3), may be suitable areas for EGS. Currently, EBOP granites have the capacity to produce 61 x 109 kWh of electricity. In addition to electricity, heat from granites can be used for other applications such as space heating and greenhouse cultivation.

Abstract

The Indonesian government has set goals for increasing the use of renewable energy in the coming years. Currently, Indonesia relies heavily on non-renewable energy sources, which poses a threat to the environment due to the country's growing energy needs. This study aims to assess the potential for developing a tidal power plant in Capalulu Strait, North Maluku. Using hydrodynamic modelling, the study identified two potential locations at coordinates 1.877°S – 125.328°E (Capa-2) and 1.863°S – 125.323°E (Capa-4) which were selected for having median current speeds exceeding 1.8 m/s and maximum current speeds exceeding 3.5 m/s. The study tested a hypothetical implementation of KHPS Gen5 instrument(s) by Verdant Power, a 5 m diameter turbine with a rated nominal power of 37 kW and a maximum rated power of 56 kW. A power plant layout was designed to be placed at Capa-2 and Capa-4, each location accommodating 45 turbines. The development of this power plant is estimated to produce up to 22 GWh per year. Financial analysis resulted in a LCOE of IDR 5,930/kWh. However, this price is still high compared to the national electricity tariff of IDR 1,027.70/kWh. Variations in the number of turbines also may not result in a lower LCOE than the national tariff. Nevertheless, the estimated cost of generating electricity is still competitive compared to diesel, which is around IDR 5,804/kWh.

Abstract

Palm mesocarp fiber, a by-product of the palm oil industry, holds significant potential as a cellulose source for biofuel, biopolymer, and biocomposite production. However, its utilization is hampered due to the presence of lignin, which covers the cellulose. The use of ozone promotes a high level of lignin degradation, making it efficient in breaking down lignin bonds in lignocellulose. However, the ozonation method has low ozone mass transfer. This deficiency can be overcome with ultrasonic waves because of the cavitation phenomenon that can expand the contact surface of ozone and lignocellulose. The ozonation-ultrasonic hybrid method is used to remove lignin. This research investigates the use of a hybrid ozonation-ultrasonic method with the effect of reaction time and pH under acidic conditions on the pretreatment of palm oil mesocarp fiber. This process was carried out at reaction times (70, 80, and 90 minutes) and solution pH (4, 5, and 6) with an ozone flow rate of 2 L min-1. The cellulose content was analyzed using the Chesson method. The results showed a decrease in lignin and an increase in cellulose, which was confirmed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis shows a decrease in the lignin absorption peak at 1635 cm-1 and 1420 cm-1. XRD analysis showed an increase in crystallinity after pretreatment, with lignin degradation observed at 6.35%. SEM Morphological showed a more friable, stable, and porous surface after pretreatment, indicating the presence of perforations in the cell walls and the damage to the lignin structure. Therefore, this research succeeded in reducing the use of chemicals in the biomass waste delignification process. The ozonation-ultrasonic hybrid pretreatment process, which aims to degrade lignin in palm fiber biomass, shows promising results, producing high cellulose content in palm fiber by reducing the amount of chemicals as mostly used in conventional processes.

Abstract

The SG6043 airfoil model is well known for its high aerodynamic efficiency and it is suitable for designing small wind turbine blades. This paper determined the optimal blade configurations using only the SG6043 airfoil model with ten different lengths from 1 m to 10 m. Then, it proposed the most suitable model for a rated wind speed of 5 m/s in Vietnam. The chord and twist values of each blade’s part were optimized by using the Betz optimization method (BOM) in the Qblade open software. Several important characteristic quantities such as lift coefficient (Cl), drag coefficient (Cd), power factor (Cp) and power (P) of the different blade configurations are determined by using a combination of both XFLR5 code and Qblade software. After that, parameters related to operation such as pitch angle and rotation speed of the rotor were also investigated to find the operating conditions for the best efficiency of wind energy exploitation. The obtained results show that the Cp of the blades has a maximum value of about 0.476 and the P has a value of up to 95.319 kW in operating conditions with a wind speed range between 1 m/s and 10 m/s. In addition, the ratios of power to blade surface area (P/S) and the ratios of power to blade volume (P/V) at the wind speed of 5 m/s were also investigated. The results show that rotors with blades ranging from 3 m to 5 m will give much higher P/S and P/V values than other blade configurations under these operating conditions. This emphasizes that these blade configurations will bring more economic benefit because they will consume less material and reduce production time while still ensuring the required capacity value. Finally, the 5 m blade rotor with a capacity of 2.750 kW at a rated wind speed of 5 m/s was proposed as the rotor suitable for individual household use. This design can help millions of Vietnamese households be proactive in their power source, thereby contributing to the significant reduction of CO2 emissions from coal-fired power plants.

Abstract

There is a looming global crisis owing to the increase in greenhouse gases and the escalating fossil fuel process.  The issue is further compounded by the ongoing conflicts in different places in the world. Hence, there is an urgent need for a bouquet of alternative fuels suitable to power the incumbent internal combustion engine. Among various options available Dimethyl Ether (DME) is a friendly environment fuel, easy to liquefy, and suitable for use in diesel engines, while Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is another potential alternative fuel suitable for internal combustion engines. The present study is an endeavor to investigate the characteristics of a diesel engine powered with DME-diesel blends as pilot fuel while LPG was used as the main fuel.  During engine testing, different blends of diesel-DME were used containing 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% DME. The AVL Boost software was employed for modeling the engine performance and tailpipe emission. The test fuel combination was successful in running the engine sans any abnormality in sound or performance. The results showed carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions were reduced using the test fuel combination while there was a marginal increase in the oxides of nitrogen (NOx) levels. In general, the combination of DME and LPG could be considered as a potential and promising solution to reducing pollutant emissions.

Abstract

Microbial fuel cell technology addresses both issues in finding new ways to clean water systems while harnessing electricity. Several studies suggest that a single large-scale MFC is proven to be inefficient and expensive. Therefore, producing small-scale MFCs is focused on investigation to provide an efficient system and cost-effective approach. This study used 3D-printed MFCs using a spongy electrode design to produce a modern approach to modifying electrode capacity in energy generation. Furthermore, the study identifies the electrical conductivity of the spongy electrode by determining the voltage generated and power density by stacked MFCs in series, parallel, and hybrid configurations. The MFCs generate a maximum voltage of 633 mV and a current of 14.22 . One way to reduce the effects of voltage reversal in the MFC system is the application of hybrid connection circuits. Parallel-series hybrid connection possesses stable voltage generation of 250−300 ???????? with the highest current generation of 115.20 ????????. At the same time, the Series-Parallel Connection generates the highest voltage and current of 259 mV and 30 , respectively. The spongy electrode design and hybrid connection produced a maximum power and current density of 29.30 μW⁄m2 and 279.41 μA⁄m2 obtained from a different connection of pure parallel and 28P-2S hybrid connection. Furthermore, water quality parameters were examined (pH, TDS, ORP, and COD), that the MFCs design is efficient in wastewater treatment, with a %COD removal of 95.24% efficiency, reduced ORP from +48.00 mV to -7.00 mV, and the TDS concentration from 270 ppm to 239 ppm.

Abstract

Bio-crude oil is known to be sustainable, eco-environmentally, and an alternative energy source produced by biomass pyrolysis. However, its quality remains relatively low due to a higher oxygen concentration compared to liquid fuels from fossils. Therefore, an upgrading process is necessary through the catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) process. This work synthesized pillared bentonite using Al and Ti metals as the pillaring agent to produce Al-PILC and Ti-PILC as catalyst support for sulfided NiMo. Their catalytic activity in HDO reaction using guaiacol as a model compound of bio-crude oil were also evaluated. Characterization of the bentonite-pillared materials, including Al-PILC, Mo/Al-PILC, NiMo/Al-PILC, Ti-PILC, Mo/Ti-PILC, and NiMo/Ti-PILC, was performed using Surface Area Analyzer, X-ray Diffractometer (XRD), Temperature-Programmed Desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD), X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) techniques. The characterization results confirm the pillarization process of bentonite using Al and Ti metals as the pillaring agent, and the preparation of the NiMo catalyst using the stepwise impregnation method was successfully prepared. The NiMo/Ti-PILC catalyst performs a superior conversion value on the HDO guaiacol reaction than other catalysts. A well dispersion of Mo and Ni metals on the surface support (NiMo/Ti-PILC), thus creating numerous active sites of the catalyst after the sulfidation. Variations in time and temperature during the HDO guaiacol reaction significantly affected the conversion.

Abstract

The rise in global warming has led to an increased utilization of cooling systems. High energy consumption associated with common refrigeration cycles not only contributes to air pollution but also intensifies the consumption of fossil fuels. Consequently, the imperative to conserve energy has become paramount in today's world. One of the methods to decrease energy consumption involves employing systems capable of harnessing waste heat from industries, solar energy, and other sources. The ejector refrigeration cycle (ERC) stands as an example of such systems. In present study, the impact of elevating the generator temperature on various aspects such as flow behavior in the ejector, aerodynamic shocks, entrainment ratio (ER), and entropy production was examined. The investigation encompassed both wet steam model (WSM) and dry steam model (DSM). Based on the findings, it was observed that with an increase in generator temperature, the ER decreases while the production entropy increases. In the WSM, the liquid mass fraction (LMF) also experiences an increase. Additionally, the Mach number distribution in the DSM surpasses that of the WSM and the temperature drop in the DSM is greater compared to the WSM. With the rise in generator temperature from 388 K to 418 K, both the DSM and WSM exhibit a decrease in ER by 52.9% and 58.7%, respectively. Furthermore, the production entropy experiences a substantial increase of 180% and 206% for the DSM and WSM, respectively.
