The abundance of rice husk in some regions of Southeast Asia makes it a potential feedstock for hydrogen synthesis. However, the information on economic and environmental feasibility of its conversion to hydrogen is lacking. This study aims to assess the techno-economic and life cycle sustainability of hydrogen production from rice husk via the thermochemical gasification method. The techno-economic analyses reveal that rice husk-based hydrogen conversion is more financially attractive than conventional hydrogen production technology. The results of the life cycle assessment are also promising, especially with the global warming potential of the rice husk-based hydrogen production being 99.7 % lower than that of natural gas steam reforming. Waste valorization of rice husk into hydrogen is therefore economically and environmentally viable.

Welding joint Austenitic stainless steels can undergo intergranular corrosion attack in some service conditions, such as oil refineries, petrochemical plants, and industrial furnaces operating at high temperatures (between 500°C and 675°C). This research focuses on fabricating dissimilar metal welds to avoid failure due to sensitization and investigate stress-relieved carbon steel by Post-weld heat treatment (PWHT). This work studies a dissimilar weld joint (DWJ) of ASTM 335 grade P11 joint to ASTM 304L and PWHT after welding. These welding processes are used in multi-pass gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) using filler metal R309L. PWHT at temperatures of 550 °C with holding times of 40, 50, and 60 minutes and then slow cooling in atmospheric air temperature, It was used to compare the results holding time carbon steel ASTM A335 Gr. P11 while processing. Holding time at 50 minutes has the maximum result of PWHT with 182 HV and has a good distribution of perlite with fine grain and increasing holding time also increases formed carbide on the grain boundary of stainless steel 304L.

This study examines the Markforged simulation software's efficacy in predicting properties of Markforged 3D-printed parts. Material extrusion (MEX) is widely used across industries for its ability to create intricate shapes with diverse internal patterns. To evaluate mechanical properties, especially due to varying infill patterns, the Markforged simulation tool is employed. Tensile test specimens based on ASTM D-638 were 3D printed using a Markforged Mark Two printer and "Onyx" material, varying layer thickness, infill pattern, and density. Deformation is simulated under a 500 N tensile load and compares to physical tests on a tensile machine, considering different pulling speeds. Results show minimal variation between simulations of solid infill patterns and experiments, regardless of speed. However, porous infill patterns exhibited notable differences. Tensile testing also revealed the impact of pulling speed on deflection for "Onyx" specimens under a 500 N load.

This study presents a comprehensive exploration of the fatigue resistance of wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) carbon steel for lattice structures. Microstructural analysis unveils substantial grain dimensions characterized by a distinctive crystallographic configuration. These grains exhibit equiaxed characteristics, demonstrating uniform dimensions in all directions. The prevailing microstructure is dominated by ferrite grains. In tandem with the microstructural insights, hardness evaluations were conducted in correspondence with the part's deposition direction. The analysis of these measurements unveiled a consistent base material hardness of approximately 159 HV. The uniform distribution of hardness profiles supports the deduction that WAAM carbon steel uniformly embodies strength attributes. This congruence aligns harmoniously with the uniform microstructure evident in microscopic analyses. The yield strength of the WAAM carbon steel exhibits higher values in the build direction, peaking at 392 MPa. The bending fatigue tests revealed a fatigue limit approximating 180 MPa for WAAM carbon steel, evident in both the build and deposition directions. Fatigue strength of WAAM carbon steel mirrors that observed for reference material S355MC steel sheet.

The global market size for Additive Manufacturing is predicted to be around USD 20 billion by 2025. The question arises whether conventional machining such as Computer Numerical Control (CNC) should be replaced by Additive Manufacturing (AM). The results presented in this paper are the outcome of an ongoing study. The overall objective of this study is a decision tool to decide which manufacturing route to adopt from a sustainability perspective. This paper will discuss the first phase of this study looking at the mechanical performance, cost and complexity of parts produced from AM and CNC. The results show that small parts are cheaper to fabricate by AM regardless of part complexity, whereas large, simple parts are cheaper to fabricate by CNC machining. These results might help in identifying manufacturing limitations of AM process in terms of mechanical performance and cost. These results will serve as inputs into a decision-making framework to decide on the most effective manufacturing route based on desired application such as in the spare parts in oil and gas industry.
