Modeling of a re-heat two-stage adsorption chiller by AI approach

MATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
A distinct advantage of adsorption chillers is their ability to be driven by heat of near ambient temperature. However the performance of the thermally driven adsorption systems is lower than that of other heat driven heating/cooling systems.

Economic Assessment of Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement Through Electrodialysis: The Role of Carbon Credits in Comparing Solar Energy and Thermal Waste Technologies

Advanced Sustainable Systems, Volume 10, Issue 6, June 2026.
This study evaluates the economic feasibility of an Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement (OAE) plant with an annual CO2 removal capacity of 878 tonnes. The project is profitable only under scenarios with high carbon credit prices, while medium and low‐price scenarios yield a negative net present value.

Water Consumption in Hydrogen Production Through Electrolysis: Overview, State‐of‐the‐Art, and Future Trends

WIREs Energy and Environment, Volume 15, Issue 2, June 2026.
Commercial‐scale “green” hydrogen projects use renewable electricity to drive electrolysis—the process of splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen. Producing green hydrogen requires water not only for the electrolysis reaction but also for cooling the electrolyzers, which release waste heat.

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.
Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination systems.

Eco‐Friendly Preparation of Porous Starch via Water‐Induced Amylose Solubilization

Polymers for Advanced Technologies, Volume 37, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Starch is a safe and biocompatible excipient in pharmaceutical formulations. Introducing pores into its granules transforms it into a biodegradable carrier suitable for drug delivery. Various strategies have been developed to induce pore formation, including physical methods (e.g., microwave, ultrasound), chemical methods (e.g., solvent ...

Ultrafast Photocatalytic Wettability Switching in Substrate‐Interface Tailored Titanium Dioxide Thin Films

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 7, 7 April 2026.
This study demonstrates ultrafast photocatalytic wettability switching in TiO2 thin films by tailoring substrate doping and interface oxides. Enhanced switching rates and hemiwicking effects are achieved through optimized material stacks and nanostructuring.

Critical Limitations in Cryogenic Laser Cooling of Solids: Symmetry‐Related Fluorescence Trapping and Condensation‐Induced Parasitic Heating

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 19, 2 April 2026.
This study uncovers two overlooked bottlenecks in cryogenic laser cooling of solids: symmetry‐driven fluorescence trapping and water vapor condensation. We demonstrate that breaking sample symmetry enhances fluorescence escape, while condensation dominates parasitic heating below 135 K.
