Structure and dynamics of carbon dangling bonds in activated carbon materials from biomass†
Abstract: Activated carbon materials are inevitable for energy-related applications. Production of such materials from biomass is sustainable. Microporous activated carbon materials with high specific surface area and pore sizes of less than 2 nm find life-saving applications apart from their utility in environmental remediation. The free electron density of these materials is tunable and is a measure of electrical conductivity that is useful for the development of green and renewable energy …

Investigating the integration of renewable energy systems in buildings and their impact on energy consumption
Abstract: Energy consumption in a building conventionally utilizes non-renewable resources that affect the ecosystem. The increase in usage of non-renewable energy increases carbon footprint, greenhouse gas emissions, global warming, and depletion of energy resources. Renewable energy resources can significantly reduce the impacts caused by non-renewable energy resources in a building. The issues that need to be kept in mind while designing energy-efficient buildings are the reduction of energy consumption originating from …

Challenges in the Preservation of Vernacular Architecture in the Face of Urbanization
Abstract: Because it embodies the traditional knowledge and skill of local communities, vernacular architecture is an essential manifestation of cultural identity. The use of regionally specific materials, construction methods, and designs tailored to local environmental circumstances are characteristics of this architectural style, which all represent the unique heritage and values of the communities involved. However, maintaining vernacular architecture has grown more difficult due to the quick speed of urbanisation and global …
