Recent Developments In Silicon Anode Technology

|

Batteries are regarded as the core of electric vehicle (EV) technology. Unlike conventional car technology, EVs completely rely on batteries to deliver power (Hannan et al., 2021). In line with this, lithium-ion battery (LIB) technology is leading to a completely new and distinctive energy storage and application paradigm. LIBs have distinguished themselves as an essential […]

Waste-to-energy technologies: sustainable solutions

|

Decades of linear consumption habituate consumerism, valuing raw material products, causing waste in landfills and oceans (Anghel & Hristea, 2018). Unfortunately, in this prevailing fashion of overconsumption, the emphasis is on a push for purchasing products, often disregarding their long-term sustainability. Consequently, the discarded waste ends up polluting our precious land and marine ecosystems, posing

microbiological safety and water security are interrelated intricately.

Microbiological Safety And Water Security

|

Microbiological safety is incredibly important to ensure that diseases and harmful organisms are contained in a secure way. Basically, water is a chemical substance made up of two hydrogen and one oxygen atoms, existing in solid (ice), liquid (water) and gas (water vapour) forms. However, biologically, it is one of the most important constituents of living

The impact of globalisation is complex

Globalisation And Inequality

|

Over the past three decades, two significant economic trends have emerged: the growth of globalisation and rising wage inequality. Globalisation and inequality result from policies promoting trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) liberalisation, deregulation, and technological advancement. Developing nations have been exposed to the effects of fast globalisation through international markets and competition. Globalisation and
