Alternative renewable fuels are the need of the hour due to limited petroleum fuel sources and environmental degradation caused by emissions. This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of utilizing cattle dung bio-oil (CDBO) microemulsions as an alternative fuel in compression ignition engines by investigating their production, stability, performance, combustion, and emission characteristics. CDBO was produced through fast pyrolysis under optimized conditions and blended with high-speed diesel (HSD) using castor oil methyl ester as an additive to prepare stable microemulsions containing 5–20% bio-oil by volume. The experimental objectives included characterization of the bio-oil, development of microemulsions, and assessment of their influence on engine performance, combustion parameters, and emission profiles. The engine testing was conducted on a single-cylinder, 4-stroke, water-cooled, direct-injection diesel engine (Kirloskar AVI, 5 hp/3.73 kW) coupled with an eddy current dynamometer. The setup was equipped with sensors and transducers to measure all required parameters. The findings indicated that the microemulsions having 20% bio-oil exhibited higher brake specific energy consumption (BSEC) (16.4%) and lower brake thermal efficiency (13.2%) than that of diesel, while the brake power remained almost the same at full loads. The microemulsion fuels produced significantly lower carbon monoxide (27%) and hydrocarbon emissions (41.5%), and the temperature of exhaust gas was higher (10.4%). At high loads, the microemulsions generated 23.5% lower smoke emissions than HSD. The ignition delay was the same as for diesel operation at higher loads, while the cylinder peak pressure was 6.4% higher than that of diesel.
由于石油燃料来源有限和排放造成的环境退化,替代可再生燃料是当前的需要。本研究旨在通过对牛粪生物油(CDBO)微乳液的制备、稳定性、性能、燃烧和排放特性的研究,评估牛粪生物油(CDBO)微乳液作为压缩点火发动机替代燃料的可行性。在优化条件下通过快速热解制备CDBO,并以蓖麻油甲酯为添加剂与高速柴油(HSD)共混,制备出体积分数为5-20%的稳定微乳。实验目的包括表征生物油,开发微乳液,评估其对发动机性能、燃烧参数和排放曲线的影响。发动机测试是在一台单缸、4冲程、水冷直喷柴油发动机(Kirloskar AVI, 5 hp/3.73 kW)和涡流测功仪上进行的。该装置配备了传感器和传感器来测量所有所需的参数。结果表明,与柴油微乳相比,生物油含量为20%的微乳具有更高的制动比能耗(BSEC)(16.4%)和更低的制动热效率(13.2%),而在满载时制动功率基本保持不变。微乳化燃料产生的一氧化碳(27%)和碳氢化合物排放量(41.5%)显著降低,废气温度较高(10.4%)。在高负荷下,微乳液产生的烟雾排放量比HSD低23.5%。点火延迟与柴油机在高负荷下运行时相同,而气缸峰值压力比柴油机高6.4%。

The global shift toward renewable energy has intensified the need to improve photovoltaic (PV) efficiency, particularly in tropical climates where elevated temperatures degrade performance. This study evaluates 2 passive cooling methods, bio-based phase change materials (PCMs) and barium sulphate (BaSO₄) radiative cooling paint to mitigate PV overheating. Two eutectic PCM mixtures, lauric acid/oleic acid (LA/OA) and lauric acid/capric acid (LA/CA), were characterized via differential scanning calorimetry, revealing latent heats of 120.1 J/g and 172.1 J/g, respectively. Under simulated solar irradiance of 800 W/m², PCM-integrated panels demonstrated significant thermal regulation, with the LA/CA system reducing peak temperatures by 18.3 °C vs. the reference panel and improving power output by 26.0%. In contrast, radiative cooling paint applied to panel frames or side-mounted heat sinks lowered temperatures by up to 6.1 °C but unexpectedly reduced power generation due to power dissipation, highlighting a trade-off between thermal and electrical performance. The LA/CA PCM emerged as the superior solution for tropical climates, offering sustained cooling and enhanced efficiency, while paint formulations require further optimization to avoid compromising light absorption. This study provides critical insights into passive cooling strategies, emphasizing the importance of holistic performance evaluation for real-world PV applications.
全球向可再生能源的转变加剧了提高光伏(PV)效率的需要,特别是在热带气候中,高温会降低性能。本研究评估了两种被动冷却方法,即生物基相变材料(PCMs)和硫酸钡(BaSO₄)辐射冷却涂料,以减轻PV过热。采用差示扫描量热法对两种共晶PCM混合物月桂酸/油酸(LA/OA)和月桂酸/癸酸(LA/CA)进行了表征,潜热分别为120.1 J/g和172.1 J/g。在800 W/m²的模拟太阳辐照度下,集成pcm的面板显示出显著的热调节,与参考面板相比,LA/CA系统将峰值温度降低了18.3 °C,并将功率输出提高了26.0%。相比之下,应用于面板框架或侧面安装的散热器的辐射冷却涂料可将温度降低6.1 °C,但由于功率耗散,意外地减少了发电量,突出了热和电气性能之间的权衡。LA/CA PCM成为热带气候的卓越解决方案,提供持续的冷却和提高效率,而涂料配方需要进一步优化,以避免影响光吸收。这项研究为被动冷却策略提供了重要的见解,强调了对实际光伏应用进行整体性能评估的重要性。

This paper evaluates the initiatives undertaken by research and policy institutions in Morocco regarding energy efficiency in buildings. It explores the potential of thermal insulation materials derived from bio-based composites and textile waste, as circularly, sustainable, economical and high-performance solutions. To meet this objective, a Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) methodology has been used with over 133 studies and 10 projects to analyse quantitatively and qualitatively the efforts made to integrate recycled and bio-based materials for more energy efficient buildings. The quantitative side has shown that over 30 different types of eco-friendly materials were experimentally and numerically characterised in Morocco during the last 25 years. The qualitative side was conducted through a U-value and thickness based evaluation and a classification by thermal conductivity and volumetric heat capacity to specify the most suitable materials. A critical analysis of the research methodology and the national policy strategy towards building energy efficiency has been carried out. The findings have highlighted the main challenges facing the integration of these insulation materials in the construction sector, particularly in terms of regulations, awareness and market access. Finally, recommendations were proposed to encourage the adoption of these innovative materials and strengthen public policies in favour of the energy transition.

Proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells are emerging as critical technology for clean and efficient energy conversion, providing a path to worldwide decarbonization and renewable power generation. Their successful integration into renewable and hybrid systems necessitates a thorough understanding of the interconnected electrochemical, thermal, and fluid processes that regulate performance. However, many existing models oversimplify these dynamic interactions, resulting in an inadequate understanding of system-level behavior and control optimization. This study fills that gap by creating a dynamic MATLAB/Simulink-based model of a PEM fuel cell to investigate how integrated thermal and fluid management affect efficiency, gas usage, and operational stability under changing loads. The model includes several critical subsystems, including the membrane electrode assembly, gas flow routes, heat regulation, and purge control. Simulation findings show a peak electrical output of 95 kW with a power density of 1.116 W cm⁻². This highlights the need for active cooling and purging strategies in reducing hydrogen loss and preserving stack performance. The findings aid sustainable PEM fuel cell design and real-time control development.
质子交换膜(PEM)燃料电池正在成为清洁、高效能源转换的关键技术,为全球脱碳和可再生能源发电提供了一条途径。将其成功集成到可再生能源和混合动力系统中,需要对调节性能的相互关联的电化学、热和流体过程有透彻的了解。然而,许多现有的模型过度简化了这些动态交互,导致对系统级行为和控制优化的理解不足。本研究通过创建基于MATLAB/ simulink的PEM燃料电池动态模型来填补这一空白,以研究集成的热和流体管理如何影响效率、气体使用和变化负载下的运行稳定性。该模型包括几个关键子系统,包括膜电极组件,气体流动路线,热量调节和吹扫控制。模拟结果显示,峰值电输出为95 kW,功率密度为1.116 W cm⁻²。这突出了主动冷却和净化策略在减少氢损失和保持堆性能方面的必要性。这些发现有助于PEM燃料电池的可持续设计和实时控制的发展。

CO2-based enhanced geothermal system (CO2-EGS), also known as CO2 plume geothermal, has emerged as a promising avenue to address the growing global energy demand and mitigate global climate concerns by exploiting renewable energy from geothermal reservoirs while concurrently sequestering CO2. In this method, CO2, in a supercritical state or dissolved in brine, is used as a working fluid to harness the geothermal energy held in hot reservoir rocks, with part of the CO2 being trapped in the reservoir. Despite their rapidly growing popularity, the integration assessment of CO2-EGS studies, fragmented into various subjects such as thermodynamics, heat transfer, multiphase flow, reservoir hydraulics, geomechanics, and geochemistry, remains insufficiently explored. Thus, a critical review that consolidates conducted studies, identifies gaps, and directs future research in this coupled technology is crucial. This review aims to provide a comprehensive assessment of CO2-EGS, emphasizing its significance, the major challenges affecting its performance and mitigation strategies, the thermophysical properties of CO2 as a working fluid, and CO2 storage while extracting geothermal energy. The study revealed the key benefits of CO2-EGS, including reducing corrosion and scaling effects in the wellbore, maintaining reservoir pressure, storing CO2, increasing sweep efficiency of the reservoir, lowering pumping power, and addressing water scarcity for geothermal systems. Despite its significance, CO2-EGS encounters major challenges, such as cost, drilling and operating wells in harsh geological conditions, CO2 leakage, lost circulation, premature thermal breakthrough, lower specific enthalpy, and incomplete heating. Key factors influencing its performance include properties of the reservoir, natural fractures and faults, geochemical and geomechanical factors, well design, type of thermodynamic cycle used, and CO2-related factors such as injection rate, injection pressure, temperature, and impurities. Overall, this review provides insights into significant advancements achieved and highlights future research to leverage CO2-EGS for reducing CO2 emissions while extracting geothermal energy.
基于二氧化碳的增强型地热系统(CO2- egs),也被称为二氧化碳羽流地热,已经成为解决日益增长的全球能源需求和缓解全球气候问题的一种有前途的途径,它可以从地热储层中开采可再生能源,同时封存二氧化碳。在这种方法中,超临界状态或溶解在盐水中的二氧化碳被用作工作流体,以利用热储层岩石中保存的地热能,部分二氧化碳被困在储层中。尽管二氧化碳- egs研究迅速普及,但其综合评估仍未得到充分的探索,这些研究分散在热力学、传热、多相流、油藏水力学、地质力学和地球化学等不同学科中。因此,对这一耦合技术进行综合研究、识别差距和指导未来研究的批判性回顾是至关重要的。本文旨在对CO2- egs进行全面评估,强调其重要性、影响其性能和缓解策略的主要挑战、CO2作为工作流体的热物理特性以及提取地热能时CO2的储存。该研究揭示了CO2- egs的主要优势,包括减少井筒中的腐蚀和结垢效应,保持油藏压力,储存二氧化碳,提高油藏波及效率,降低泵送功率,解决地热系统缺水问题。尽管具有重要意义,但CO2- egs也面临着一些重大挑战,如成本、恶劣地质条件下的钻井和作业、二氧化碳泄漏、漏失、热突破过早、比焓降低和加热不完全等。影响其性能的关键因素包括储层性质、天然裂缝和断层、地球化学和地质力学因素、井设计、使用的热力学循环类型,以及与二氧化碳相关的因素,如注入速度、注入压力、温度和杂质。总的来说,这篇综述提供了对已取得的重大进展的见解,并强调了在提取地热能的同时利用二氧化碳- egs减少二氧化碳排放的未来研究。

Renewable energies are gaining ground in the global energy matrix due to their potential to decarbonize the economy. Currently, water electrolysis is one of the main commercial routes used to obtain green hydrogen, and there is a growing interest in alternative water sources to avoid competition between human and animal consumption and fuel production. In this context, a brief bibliometric analysis on "Green hydrogen via effluent electrolysis" was conducted, followed by a literature review aimed at answering the following guiding questions: (i) Are there green hydrogen production systems via effluent electrolysis?; (ii) What renewable energy sources are used by existing systems, and what is their configuration and production scale?; (iii) What electrolysis technologies are used in these systems?; (iv) What are the effluent sources used by existing systems, and what methods are employed for effluent treatment?; (v) What are the applications for hydrogen, oxygen, and residual heat obtained during effluent electrolysis? The results show that: (i) various types of effluent electrolysis systems have been reported; (ii) the main renewable energy source used in these systems is photovoltaic solar energy; (iii) the most commonly used electrolysis technology is the proton exchange membrane type; (iv) the most frequent effluent source is from municipal effluent treatment plants; and (v) the applications of green hydrogen, oxygen, and residual heat can meet the same demands as those of fossil origin hydrogen. Finally, it is evident that research involving effluent electrolysis for green hydrogen production is still in its early stages, indicating a wide field yet to be explored.
可再生能源由于具有使经济脱碳的潜力,正在全球能源矩阵中占据一席之地。目前,水电解是获得绿色氢的主要商业途径之一,人们对替代水源的兴趣日益浓厚,以避免人类和动物消费与燃料生产之间的竞争。在此背景下,对“通过废水电解生产绿色氢”进行了简短的文献计量学分析,然后进行了文献综述,旨在回答以下指导性问题:(i)是否存在通过废水电解生产绿色氢的系统?现有系统使用哪些可再生能源,其结构和生产规模如何?这些系统采用何种电解技术?(iv)现有系统使用的污水来源是什么,污水处理采用什么方法?(v)废水电解过程中获得的氢、氧和余热的用途是什么?结果表明:(1)已报道了各种类型的废水电解系统;(ii)在这些系统中使用的主要可再生能源是光伏太阳能;(三)最常用的电解技术是质子交换膜式;(iv)最常见的污水来源是市政污水处理厂;(5)绿色氢、氧和余热的应用可以满足与化石源氢相同的需求。最后,很明显,涉及废水电解绿色制氢的研究仍处于早期阶段,表明一个广阔的领域有待探索。

The results show that: (i) various types of effluent electrolysis systems have been reported; (ii) the main renewable energy source used in these systems is photovoltaic solar energy; (iii) the most commonly used electrolysis technology is the proton exchange membrane type; (iv) the most frequent effluent source is from municipal effluent treatment plants; and (v) the applications of green hydrogen, oxygen, and residual heat can meet the same demands as those of fossil origin hydrogen. Finally, it is evident that research involving effluent electrolysis for green hydrogen production is still in its early stages, indicating a wide field yet to be explored.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100957,"journal":{"name":"Next Energy","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100481"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145684605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Perovskite solar cells (PSCs) combine outstanding optoelectronic properties with low fabrication cost, with methylammonium lead bromide (CH₃NH₃PbBr₃) offering superior thermal stability, a 2.2 eV band gap, and a high absorption coefficient (10⁵–10⁶ cm⁻¹). This study employs SCAPS-1D simulations under AM1.5 G illumination to analyze an FTO/BaTiO₃/CH₃NH₃PbBr₃/Cu₂O/Ni device, achieving a 17.00% power conversion efficiency (PCE), 1.8515 V open-circuit voltage (VOC), 9.923 mA cm⁻² short-circuit current density (JSC), and 92.51% fill factor (FF), enabled by optimal band alignment and reduced recombination. Quantum efficiency (QE) reached ∼100% in the visible range, confirming strong light-harvesting. Parametric optimization identified optimal operation at 300 K with a shunt resistance of 10⁵ Ω·cm². Machine learning (ML) models; artificial neural networks (ANN) and k-nearest neighbors (k-NN) were applied to assess the influence of material properties on device performance. The results offer guidelines for fabricating cost-effective, high-performance Pb–based PSCs and reinforce CH₃NH₃PbBr₃’s role as a benchmark absorber for device optimization.

Polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) are present in several industrially relevant streams, including light cycle oil, coal- and bio-derived oils, high-temperature gasification tars, and asphaltenic oils, posing processing challenges due to coke formation and low conversion to valuable products with conventional technologies. This study focuses on oxidative cracking of model compound phenanthrene in supercritical water (SCW) at low oxidant concentration as a route to produce chemicals of industrial interest from PAHs. While some studies have dealt with PAH SCW oxidation, these were carried out in large oxygen excess, aiming to eliminate PAHs through complete oxidation. This work shows that phenanthrene underwent fast oxidation promoted by reactive oxygen species (ROS) from H2O2 decomposition, but its conversion leveled off once ROS were consumed. However, the oxygenated species formed continued reacting in SCW over longer timescales. A reaction pathway is proposed based on the evolution of the main intermediate compounds with time and temperature. Anthraquinone was the main product at early reaction stages, with 0 min selectivity above 65% at all temperatures. It further reacted to form xanthone and fluorenone as main intermediates, reaching selectivity of up to 35% and 32% respectively. At later reaction stages, higher selectivity of up to 31% and 34% towards dibenzofuran or fluorene, respectively, indicates in-situ deoxygenation of intermediate products. This pathway showed differences with those measured under large oxygen excess, as oxidation starts in central positions and further reactions lead to a range of products with progressively less oxygen as well as a hydrogen-rich gas, while coke yields remain low.
多芳烃(PAH)存在于几种工业相关的流体中,包括轻循环油、煤和生物衍生油、高温气化焦油和沥青质油,由于焦炭的形成和传统技术对有价值产品的低转化率,给加工带来了挑战。本研究重点研究了模型化合物菲在低氧化剂浓度的超临界水中的氧化裂解,作为从多环芳烃中生产工业化学品的途径。虽然一些研究涉及多环芳烃SCW氧化,但这些研究都是在大量氧气过剩的情况下进行的,旨在通过完全氧化消除多环芳烃。这项研究表明,由H2O2分解产生的活性氧(ROS)促进了菲的快速氧化,但一旦ROS被消耗,其转化就趋于平稳。然而,在较长的时间尺度上,在SCW中形成的含氧物质继续发生反应。根据主要中间化合物随时间和温度的变化,提出了一种反应途径。蒽醌是反应初期的主要产物,在所有温度下选择性均在65%以上。进一步反应生成山酮和芴酮为主要中间体,选择性分别高达35%和32%。在反应后期,对二苯并呋喃和芴的选择性分别高达31%和34%,表明中间产物进行了原位脱氧。这一途径与在大量氧气过剩情况下的测量结果有所不同,因为氧化从中心位置开始,进一步的反应导致一系列氧气逐渐减少的产物以及富氢气体,而焦炭的产量仍然很低。

The decarbonization of industrial processes will require large quantities of green hydrogen produced with renewable energy. The use of variable renewable energy for hydrogen production will, in turn, necessitate large-scale hydrogen storage to ensure the constant availability of hydrogen. In existing energy models, hydrogen storage is typically included as a ‘black box’ unit that simplifies the behavior of hydrogen during the operation of a storage cycle. In this study, a high-fidelity hydrogen gas storage model is developed. The model considers the behavior of hydrogen as a real gas during storage operations, a defining advancement compared to previous studies, and utilizes hourly data sets of renewable energy production. The model is first demonstrated on a baseline case located in Finland, where 121 MW of wind power capacity supplies an annual hydrogen demand of 6000 tonnes, mandating a hydrogen storage capacity of 575 tonnes. Next, a sensitivity analysis reveals that increasing wind power capacity or adding solar power to the energy mix decreases the storage requirement significantly. On the other hand, increasing the minimum storage pressure or reducing the electrolyzer capacity both increase the required storage capacity. Finally, the baseline case was used to compare storage technologies available in the Finnish context, and lined rock caverns were found to be the most cost-efficient option with a reasonable storage volume. Overall, the study concludes that significant storage capacities and thus investments are required for the industrial utilization of green hydrogen. Therefore, it is essential that the behavior of hydrogen as a real gas is considered when sizing storage systems.
工业过程的脱碳将需要大量用可再生能源生产的绿色氢。使用可变的可再生能源生产氢气,反过来,需要大规模的氢气储存,以确保氢气的持续可用性。在现有的能源模型中,氢储存通常作为一个“黑盒子”单元,简化了氢在储存循环过程中的行为。在本研究中,建立了一个高保真的储氢模型。该模型考虑了氢气在储存过程中作为真实气体的行为,与之前的研究相比,这是一个决定性的进步,并利用了可再生能源生产的每小时数据集。该模型首先在芬兰的一个基线案例中进行了演示,在芬兰,121 兆瓦的风力发电能力提供了每年6000吨的氢气需求,要求氢储存能力为575吨。其次,敏感性分析表明,增加风能发电容量或在能源结构中增加太阳能发电可显著降低储能需求。另一方面,提高最低存储压力或降低电解槽容量都增加了所需的存储容量。最后,基线案例用于比较芬兰现有的存储技术,发现内衬岩洞是具有合理存储容量的最具成本效益的选择。总的来说,该研究得出结论,绿色氢的工业利用需要大量的储存能力和投资。因此,在确定存储系统的尺寸时,必须考虑氢气作为真实气体的行为。

Benthic plant microbial fuel cells (BPMFCs) represent an innovative, sustainable technology that effectively integrates plant photosynthesis with microbial electroactivity, facilitating the generation of renewable electricity alongside the remediation of organic waste. This study offers a critical analysis of the latest developments in BPMFC technology, focussing on 4 essential aspects: (1) novel bio-based electrode materials including functionalised conductive polymer composites, nanomaterial hybrids that enhance electron transfer (ET) efficiency; (2) advanced metagenomic and transcriptomic studies elucidating the electroactive microbial consortia and their unique extracellular ET mechanisms in both rhizosphere and BPMFC configurations; (3) the application of genetically modified plants with enhanced root exudation profiles, increasing power output; (4) innovative remote monitoring systems for BPMFCs employing IoT-enabled wireless sensor networks and long range wide area network technology ensuring reliable voltage measurement transmission from distant locations with minimal signal loss. The review rigorously analyses life cycle assessment studies that substantiate the environmental advantages of PMFCs, especially their carbon-negative potential when combined with wastewater treatment. Even with these advancements, there are still considerable obstacles to overcome in scaling BPMFC technology, such as concerns regarding system durability and questions about economic feasibility. A comprehensive roadmap is provided that integrates artificial intelligence-optimized material design, synthetic microbial community engineering, improved monitoring systems, and circular economy concepts to facilitate the transition from laboratory-scale prototypes to real-world applications. This analysis highlights the promise of BPMFCs as distributed renewable energy systems, particularly in agricultural and aquatic environments, while delineating critical research avenues to tackle existing commercialization obstacles.
