Ecuador is the leading exporter of bananas globally. This industry generates a large amount of organic waste since the plant is cut down for every crop, but only the fruit bunch is used. These residues can be converted into sustainable environmental products that could replace polluting materials. This investigation presents a GIS-based methodology used to estimate the biomass of the residues of banana agriculture in Ecuador and to determine how much organic waste could be used as raw materials to manufacture new biodegradable products. We estimated that more than forty million metric tons of waste are produced every nine months. Our methodology can be a low-cost quantitative complement to the survey-based estimations conducted by the Ecuadorian government to evaluate banana production. Additionally, our work presents five products that could be manufactured with organic waste, like disposable plates, bioplastics for food utensils, cardboard covers, fibers for hydraulic cement, and wallpaper. Finally, we offer a product catalog developed as a technical guide for future bio-enterprises to elaborate biodegradable products inspired by a circular economy scheme. In light of the estimated amount of banana waste generated in the country, we consider that Ecuador has the potential to develop an industry based on this raw material to generate products such as those proposed in our review, shifting the banana industry to a more sustainable, profitable process, and generating new incomes and sources of employment.

In the typical, academic career path, individuals enter faculty roles immediately after graduate school, commencing their academic careers with research skills and a fledgling research agenda. Many faculty, however, take an indirect route to research. They may work in the commercial or nonprofit sector for years before joining the academy, allowing their research skills to fade. Some individuals who never completed research training are recruited as faculty due to their years of professional experience; this is especially true in business, engineering, and health care. When institutional expectations and personal goals change, however, these individuals may suddenly face the need to conduct research. They have the motivation but lack the necessary skills and confidence. This is especially true when institutions decide to seek accreditation that requires research activity among faculty. To help Bolivian faculty achieve research success, we developed a condensed workshop on qualitative, applied research and conducted it four times, in-person and online, following the action research model. The condensed workshop proved effective in helping faculty boost their research productivity, though participants expressed a desire for more extended coaching and support. Future workshops will include increased opportunity for collaboration. The workshop can be adapted to other regions.

Various strategies were developed for battery cooling including air cooling, liquid cooling, fin cooling, phase change material cooling (PCM), and heat pipes. The objective of this study was to identify an appropriate cooling technique for lithium-ion batteries utilized in electric vehicles. A three-dimensional unsteady numerical model was developed using ANSYS software to conduct simulations to assess the cooling efficiency of each approach. The numerical results indicate that the air-cooling technique yielded a peak temperature of 32.928 °C and a maximum total heat flow of 11456 W/m2. The fin cooling technique had a peak total heat flow of 0.014476 W/m2 and reached a maximum temperature of 35.17 °C. The liquid cooling technique exhibited a peak temperature of 31.773 °C and a maximum total heat flux of 10642 W/m2. Additionally, a changed battery pack was planned with extra air outlets to upgrade the convection cycle of the air-cooling technique. Based on the numerical findings, the modified battery pack for air-cooling technique resulted in a peak temperature of 31.214 °C and a maximum total heat flow of 12272 W/m2. PCM and heat pipe method had a maximum temperature of 54.85 °C and a maximum total heat flow of 554.69 W/m2. According to the results obtained, the liquid cooling method demonstrated the lowest maximum temperature. The simulations indicate that this approach offers the most effective thermal management, with a maximum temperature value of 31.773 °C.
