Photocatalytic Water Splitting on the Lunar Surface: Prospects for In Situ Resource Utilization

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Water has been found in craters on the moon nearby locations which are illuminated >80% of the time. Photocatalysis uses energy from sunlight to drive chemical reactions such as water splitting to produce oxygen and hydrogen. It is a scalable technology that requires lighter equipment and utilizes resources available on the moon. ABSTRACT The discovery

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

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT 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

Enhancing Process Control in Agriculture: Leveraging Machine Learning for Soil Fertility Assessment

Engineering Proceedings
Context: The primary factor in determining whether or not a crop can be produced on a certain type of soil is soil fertility. When faced with many options, farmers frequently find it difficult to decide which crop to plant.
