Advanced Membrane Technologies and Materials for Sustainable Industrial Separations: Alternatives to Energy-Intensive Distillation Processes
Abstract: Distillation is one of the most widely used separation processes in the chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and food industries; however, it is also among the most energy-intensive operations, accounting for a substantial portion of global industrial energy consumption. The increasing demand for sustainable manufacturing and reduced carbon emissions has driven significant interest in membrane-based separation technologies as alternatives or complements to conventional distillation. Advanced membrane processes, including Organic Solvent Nanofiltration (OSN), …

Automatic Floating Structured Hybrid Power Plant
Abstract: Hybrid renewable energy systems provide an effective solution to overcome the intermittency and reliability issues associated with individual renewable energy sources. This paper presents the design and development of an automatic floating structured hybrid power plant that integrates floating solar photovoltaic (FSPV) technology with a pico-hydroelectric generation system on a single platform. The floating structure enables efficient utilization of water surfaces while enhancing solar panel performance through natural cooling effects. …

Optimization of a New Fluorescent-Based OLED Structure for High-Efficiency Performance in Emerging Web3 and Decentralized Device Ecosystems
Abstract: Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs), traditionally used in flat-panel displays and solid-state lighting, are now emerging as critical components in next-generation Web3-enabled technologies. Their lightweight structure, flexibility, high contrast ratio, and low power consumption make them highly suitable for decentralized hardware platforms, blockchain-integrated Internet of Things (IoT) devices, distributed augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) interfaces, wearable electronics, and ultra-low-power edge computing systems. These advanced applications require compact, durable, and energy-efficient emissive devices …

Damage Mechanisms and Impact Behavior of
Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites: A Review
Abstract: Fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites have gained widespread acceptance in aerospace, automotive, marine, civil, and military applications due to their high strength to weight ratio, corrosion resistance, and excellent mechanical performance in different-different scenarios. However, their susceptibility to impact loading remains a critical concern, as impact events can induce complex damage mechanisms that significantly degrade structural integrity and residual mechanical properties. This study summarizes current knowledge on the impact behavior of …
