The development of biofuels has been considered as an important countermeasure to abate anthropogenic CO2 emissions, suppress deteriorated atmospheric greenhouse effect, and mitigate global warming. To produce from biomass, thermochemical conversion processes are the most efficient routes wherein torrefaction lowest warming potential. Combustion is easiest way consume which can be burned alone or co-fired with coal generate heat power. However, solid biomass fuels not commonly applied in...
Lignocellulosic biomass has been recognized as promising feedstock for biofuels production. However, the high cost of pretreatment is one major challenges hindering large-scale production from these abundant, indigenously-available, and economic feedstock. In addition to capital operation cost, water consumption also regarded a challenge unfavorably affecting performance. present review, advances in lignocellulose technologies are reviewed critically discussed. Moreover, faced future...
As the demand for biofuels increases globally, microalgae offer a viable biomass feedstock to produce biofuel. With abundant sources of in rural communities, these materials could be converted biodiesel. Efforts are being done order pursue commercialization. However, its main usage is other applications such as pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and aquaculture, which has high return investment. In last 5 decades algal research, cultivation genetically engineered algae have been pursued push...
The decarbonization of the energy industry is one key pillars in reduction greenhouse gas emissions atmosphere. generation an important driver development nations. Small modular reactors (SMRs) are considered affordable technology that can provide clean comparable to other renewable technologies. However, several critical issues established full adoption and investment SMRs developing A state-of-the-art review proposed, involving on technological, economic, environmental, socio-political...
Geopolymers are inorganic polymers formed from the alkaline activation of amorphous alumino-silicate materials resulting in a three-dimensional polymeric network. As class materials, it is seen to have potential replacing ordinary Portland cement (OPC), which for more than hundred years has been binder choice structural and building applications. emerged as sustainable option vis-à-vis OPC three reasons: (1) their technical properties comparable if not better; (2) they can be produced...
The study described in this paper consists of a system that involves image processing techniques to extract relevant features related leaf conjunction with using artificial neural network order detect and identify some Philippine herbal plants. Real samples twelve different medicine plant leaves are collected where each isolated single image. Several extracted processing. With the acting as autonomous brain network, can species being tested. also provide information about diseases cure. For...
Mixed-use buildings contribute to the sustainable development of cities by providing economic, environmental, and social benefits. Energy management these still remains a challenge due their unpredictable energy consumption characteristics lack design guidelines for efficiency sustainability solutions. forecasting models have been crucial improvement but its application mixed-use are limited. Hence, this study aims develop prediction model characterize forecast buildings. Machine learning...
