“…However, the NOx emission increased due to the higher oxygen availability in biodiesel. Other studies also reported similar findings, where B20 appeared to be the optimum biodiesel blend 93. Additionally, this study considered multi‐walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) as the catalyst in B20 for combustion in a CI engine.…”

The increasing demand of the world energy consumption has made it necessary to shift energy technologies toward renewable energy sources. The sustainability of feedstock can be maintained when utilizing feedstock from waste sources, such as dairy waste, food waste, and others. Dairy waste is one of the cheapest sources available. The compositions of dairy waste scum, including free fatty acids (8–10 %), triglycerides (more than 80 % in dry bases), and fats around 60 %, which have the potential to be used as the feedstock for biodiesel production in the presence of certain catalysts. To ensure more sustainability, the catalyst should be derived from waste (e.g., eggshells and cow bones) that consists of calcium oxide, which can then be used to catalyze the transesterification of dairy waste. This review emphasizes the current production of dairy waste globally and the potential of the waste and other types of organic waste as feedstock for biodiesel production, as well as determines the optimum reaction conditions for high‐quality biodiesel production.

“…In recent years, dairy industries have been applying AD for energy recovery in the form of biomethane, and such initiatives measure the industries' environmental performance [53]. In the literature, material flow analysis (MFA) and life cycle analysis (LCA) have been carried out in full-scale AD units treating dairy industry wastewater [54]. From a resource recovery viewpoint, electricity (426 MWh/annum) and heat energy (1236 MWh/annum) are generated from AD plants using this type of wastewater.…”

“…From a resource recovery viewpoint, electricity (426 MWh/annum) and heat energy (1236 MWh/annum) are generated from AD plants using this type of wastewater. Thus, 20% of the energy required for the operation of the industry is recovered, and there is a significant reduction of the total carbon footprint emission (13%) compared to the baseline scenario [53,54].…”

Wastewaters from various process industries, namely food and agricultural, sugar mill, brewery, milk, vegetable and fruit, and meat and fisheries processing industries and their wastewater effluents contain nutrients, organic matter, inorganic, heavy metals, suspended solids, and pathogens. The discharges of non-treated wastewater enter the nearby aquatic ecosystem (e.g., lakes, rivers) and are a significant concern due to the presence of different nutrients, competing ions and C containing pollutants. It causes excessive growth of algae, loss of habitat/species, and other negative impacts on human health/environment. In the present review, different treatment approaches have been discussed in utilizing these nutrients to synthesize value-added products such as biopolymer, biofuel, pigment, organic acid, or enzymes. These biopolymers can be used to prepare various food products/packaging materials. Dextran, chitosan, carrageenan, alginate, and pectin are good examples of non-food biopolymers. Besides these products, poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) synthesis from wastewater nutrients is reported as a new source of bio-nanocomposite materials/biopolymer-based coatings. In this review, the different treatment approaches are discussed, which are being used worldwide for the removal/recovery of nutrients, toxic pollutants, and the potential resource recovery of value-added products from wastewater.

Oil, coal, wind, gas, hydro energy and other types of energy are all major sources of energy on the planet [7][8][9][10]. The development of the wind energy concept was prompted by an increasing desire to use renewable energy sources.…”

In this century, composites have been discovered to be the most promising and discriminating material accessible. Composites reinforced with synthetic or natural fibres are becoming more popular as demand for light weight, high strength materials for specialized applications grows are on the rise in the market. In the current work Carbon fiber Reinforced Polymer Matrix Composite material is developed aiming wind turbine blade applications. This research demonstrates the successful development of a carbon fibre reinforced Epoxy matrix composite that can be utilized to make micro wind turbine blades and is very cost effective thanks to the utilization of a simple hand lay-up approach. The peak elongation varies from 12.248 mm to 14.417 mm, and the tensile strength varies from 939.472 N/mm2 to 960.910 N/mm2. It was observed that the Compressive Strength varies from 8.992 N/mm2 to 46.895 N/ mm2 and peak elongation varies from 1.808 mm to 3.462 mm. In three-point bending test, the peak load was found to be 509.96 N. Due to the presence of carbon fibre reinforcement, the bending strength of polyester resin has been greatly increased.
