Catalytic Depolymerization Technology for Sustainable PLA Recycling
As the world strives toward a circular economy and faces mounting environmental concerns about plastic waste, innovative recycling solutions for bioplastics are urgently required. Polylactic acid (PLA), the most common bioplastic, is widely used in packaging, textiles, disposables, biomedical devices, and more due to its biodegradability and non-toxic degradation. However, current end-of-life solutions for PLA—such […] Read More >
Solar-Powered Water Disinfection Based on UV-LED
Preventing mortality and improving health of billion people through accessible, environmentally friendly water disinfection. The pain people suffer due to contaminated water Over 2 billion people use a drinking water source contaminated with faces (WHO 2019), which contains bacteria, protozoa, and viruses causing a variety of diseases.

Scalable Bio-Hydrogen Production; a Novel Green Energy Technology
Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a promising clean energy carrier and a valuable commodity with over 60 million tons produced globally and used in many industrial technologies. The current industrial method of hydrogen production is consuming methane (a high-value fuel) and polluting the environment. Bio-hydrogen production by photosynthetic microbes represents an alternate green energy strategy that […] Read More >
System and Method for Determining Design Parameters for Marine Infrastructure
In the 60s-70s, a remarkable advancement was reached: instruments for directional wave measurements were developed. Data processing techniques based on potential wave theory enabled for the first time the evaluation of wave directional spectra. However, the irrotational potential theory lacks essential terms of waves and ambient shearing current interactions. By constructing suitable simulations, we proved […] Read More >
