“…However, this multi-stage process starts with biofilm formation [51]. Biofilm designation, in the context of FWI, is often attributed to the microbial development associated to the plant roots and its role on the water depurative process [7,52]. Therefore, both types of samples were considered.…”

Floating wetland islands (FWI) are considered nature-based solutions with great potential to promote several ecosystem services, such as biodiversity and water quality enhancement through phytoremediation processes. To our knowledge, the present work is the first to scientifically document the in-situ establishment of an FWI in a seawater port marina. The establishment and performance of a cork floating platform with a polyculture (Sarcocornia perennis, Juncus maritimus, Phragmites australis, Halimione portulacoides, Spartina maritima, Limonium vulgare) was evaluated. The diversity of organisms present in the FWI was undertaken based on the macrofauna assessment, taking into consideration marine water characterization, with a focus on hydrocarbons. Microbial communities were assessed based on metabarcoding approach to study 16S rRNA gene from environmental DNA retrieved from biofilm (from the planting media), marine biofouling (from the submerged platform) and surface marina water. S. perennis was the species with the highest survival rate and growth. The structure of the microbial community showed clear differences between those established in the FWI and those in the surrounding water, showing the presence of some bacterial groups that can be relevant for bioremediation processes (e.g., Saprospiraceae family). Concerning the macrofauna analysis, Mytilus sp. was the predominant taxa. To be of relevance, total petroleum hydrocarbons were detected at the marina up to ca. 6 mg/L. This study gives new insights into broadening FWI application to the saline environments of port marinas and to supporting a management strategy to promote several ecosystem services such biodiversity, species habitat, water quality enhancement and added aesthetic value to the marina landscape.

“…The distance between two nodes represents the relationship between keywords, with a a shorter distance representing a higher similarity. The colors were assigned through clustering based on the occurrence of words describing the topics, and each color represents a topic cluster [52]. The topic clustering analysis of SCI paper keywords in the CSP field shows that CSP technology research has focused on four major research categories, i.e., the collector field, solar thermal system, thermal energy storage (TES), and CSP generation systems and equipment.…”

Decreasing the levelized cost of renewable energy and improving the stability of power systems are the key requirements for realizing the sustainable growth of power production capacity. Concentrating solar power (CSP) technology with thermal energy storage can overcome the intermittent and unstable nature of solar energy, and its development is of great significance for the sustainable development of human society. In this paper, topic discovery and clustering were studied using bibliometric, social network analysis and information visualization technology based on the Web of Science database (SCI-Expanded) and the incoPat global patent database. The technology searched for papers and patents related to CSP technology to reveal the development trends of CSP technology and provide the references for related technical layout and hot spot tracking. The results show that the global output of CSP technology papers has continued to grow steadily, whereas the number of patent applications showed a significant downtrend. CSP technology, which is at the initial stage of commercialization, still needs technological breakthroughs. Technological innovation that integrates thermal engineering, control engineering, physics, chemistry, materials, and other disciplines may become an effective path for CSP technology development in the future. CSP technology research shows increasing research and development trends in high-temperature receivers, phase-change thermal energy storage, the overall performance of thermal power generation systems, and a development trend from a single technology to multi-energy complementary systems.

“…In fact, bibliometrics refers to the research methodology employed in library and information sciences that applies quantitative analysis and statistics methods to describe the distribution patterns of publications according to some given categories. This methodological approach allows the organization and analysis of a high number of scientific documents and can be applied to the identification of important research trends, as demonstrated by several works in the engineering fields [25][26][27][28][29][30]. The aim of this work was the analysis from a bibliometric point of view of the scientific literature related to the research on self-healing asphalt published between 2003 and 2018 in the sources compiled in the Scopus database.…”

The use of self-healing asphalt is a good option to extend the lifetime of roads and to improve the sustainability of pavement management systems. A bibliometric analysis based on the Scopus database was carried out to review the global research related to self-healing asphalt from 2003 to 2018 and to identify relevant quantitative characteristics from the research in this period. The results from this analysis revealed that the number of accumulated publications followed an exponential growth, which confirmed the relevance that this research topic has gained during the last years. The study revealed that China was the most productive country, followed by the Netherlands, where the most prolific institution is located: Delft University of Technology. Some important research features of the two main approaches most frequently used to develop asphalt mixtures with enhanced self-healing abilities (external heating and encapsulated rejuvenating agents) are compiled in this work.
