To avoid the ecocide occurring due to conventional plastics, studies on the production and extraction of renowned biopolymers like polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are explored. PHA is a family of polyesters naturally produced by bacterial fermentation with the potential to replace conventional hydrocarbon-based polymers. The efficient utilization of industrial discard as renewable feedstocks in the production of eco-friendly products such as bioplastics has been studied. This study focuses on the production of PHA using cashew industry wastewater (CIW). Since cashew industry wastewater (CIW) is rich in phenolic compounds and other sources, this study explores the possibility of eliminating the toxic phenol compounds from the waste by the production of PHA using cashew industry wastewater as a secondary source of carbon by paving the way to eco-friendly process. In this context, PHA-producing bacterium was isolated from wastewater samples collected from cashew industries. The morphological, microscopic, and biochemical characterization revealed that the isolated strain CFM1 is Bacillus sp. The strain CFM1 that gave maximum (30%) PHA in control medium was taken up for further studies with wastewater. The concentration of sucrose in the control production media was replaced with cashew industry wastewater. Wastewater was introduced to the medium at different concentrations (10–100%). As CIW concentration was increased, the sucrose concentration was decreased in the medium accordingly. CFM1 isolates produced 34% PHA with 20% wastewater. The biopolymer produced was characterized by FTIR and NMR.","PeriodicalId":10464,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Engineering","volume":"19 6","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138603363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Inspite of many advantages, DPC suffers with lack of cluster centroids and cut-off distance identification. Cut-off distance is the prominent parameter used in the calculation of local density. The improper choice of cut-off distance leads to improper cluster results. Currently, the cut-off distance is selected using decision graph or delta density or knee point detection or silhouette score or kernel functions. The main problem with the above functions for selecting the cut-off distance in DPC is that they often rely on heuristic or visually subjective criteria, making the choice of the optimal cut-off distance challenging and potentially sensitive to data characteristics. By leveraging metaheuristic optimisation algorithms, the process of selecting the cut-off distance becomes less subjective and data-driven, potentially leading to improved clustering results in DPC. This motivated us to work on the choice of cut-off distance by the usage of remora optimisation algorithm (ROA). The cluster results are improved by the usage of remora in selection of reliable cut-off distance (${d_c})$dc). The effectiveness of the updated DPC with ROA is evaluated by applying on the eight datasets and compared with K-means, traditional DPC, DPC merged with other optimisation results. The three parameters used here to check the quality of the cluster are homogeneity, completeness and silhouette analysis. ROA is new and built on the inspiration of remora which moves from one place to another using the sea fishes like shark, whale, sword fish, etc. It is clear from the results that DPC with ROA has produced the better homogeneity value of 0.807, completeness of 0.699 and silhouette analysis of 0.79 than the other clustering algorithms.","PeriodicalId":10464,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Engineering","volume":"56 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139206249","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite all efforts, domestic private investment in Ethiopia is still in its early stages. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the trends and determinants of domestic private investment in Ethiopia using a time series data over the period 1992–2022. To meet its goal, the study employed an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) bounds testing approach through E-views version 12. The findings show that domestic private investment was negatively and significantly affected by the inflation rate, public investment, and real effective exchange rate over a period of both the short- and long-run. While domestic credit to the private sector, foreign direct investment, real GDP and trade openness were found to have positive and significant effect on domestic private investment in long run. Unemployment rate was found to have positive and significant effect in short run but insignificant in long run. Annual interest rate was found negative significant effect in short run but insignificant in long run. While total government expenditure was insignificant in both short and long run. Inflation has a negative relation with domestic private investment in both short and long run, therefore the study suggested that policymakers should recognize the cause for fluctuations in inflation and keep in a stable manner.","PeriodicalId":10464,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Engineering","volume":"188 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139215235","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using stepwise regression and statistical approaches for 232 surveyed household consumers in Makassar city, the adjusted R2 value for four composed models is between 52% and 59%. Study findings reveal that specific perception significantly influences the usage of both appliances including the habit of consumers for energy saving. Among the examined external factors, the variable of mass media has significance in almost all models. Implications for policymakers suggest applying a priority approach in promoting energy saving to consumers with low specific perception based on the aspect of installed electric power capacity at home, and giving more information via mass media about attributes of ESA including introducing intervention strategies is essential to support sustainable electricity consumption from the consumer’s side.","PeriodicalId":10464,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Engineering","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139224358","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, a novel approach is proposed in this paper focussing on the investigation of bi-directional quasi-Z source inverter (BD-qZSI) using a modified shoot through hysteresis current control (STHCC) loop for brushless direct current (BLDC)-motor-based low power electric vehicle (EV) applications to address this issue. The practical vehicle dynamics, without the computational burden of the complete drive cycle. are suitably established in this research work by achieving different speed and torque conditions with the inclusion of five different modes of operations consisting of three motoring modes (eco, coast, and wrap) and two regenerative braking modes (soft regen and hard regen). The combination of the closed loop speed control of BLDC motor involving PI control in cascade with modified STHCC for the operation of BD-qZSI is analysed in MATLAB/Simulink environement. The performance of the bidirectional power transfer in a single stage including regenerative braking is examined. The results confirm the validity of the proposed system for low-power EV applications. The modified STHCC is easy to implement with quick response compared to other control methods. The performance of single stage BD-qZSI is superior to the conventional two stage converter topologies and to that of Z source inverters. The commutation ripple observed in the torque profile is insignificant in low-power BLDC drive applications. The overall drivetrain efficiency of 84.82% is achieved at rated load condition.","PeriodicalId":10464,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Engineering","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139233087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet, these initiatives often disrupt traffic, as seen in the Amman BRT project. A study assessed traffic conditions during various stages to address these disruptions, including simulated BRT operations. The research collected data on traffic volume, travel time, delays, and transit ridership before, during, and after construction and after BRT operations began. As a case study, the study focused on the impact of Amman’s first mass transit system at the Yajouz intersection. Traffic volumes decreased by 28% during construction, reducing delays significantly from 118.03 to 91.04 seconds. Although average speeds increased slightly (one km/h, on average), travel time doubled, negatively impacting 84% of businesses due to considering alternative routes for traveller destinations. However, delays significantly reduced after construction to 58 seconds per vehicle despite the higher traffic volume. Traffic simulations during construction underestimated observed delays (53.5 seconds per vehicle vs. 73.7 seconds per vehicle), still indicating a Level of Service (LOS) E. In BRT operation, modelled delays (55.8 seconds per vehicle) were lower than observed (63.8 seconds per vehicle), maintaining same LOS level. BRT minimally impacted ridership, an expected outcome given its trial phase. Environmental assessments revealed emissions peaking during construction, with a 25% modal shift to BRT yielding the lowest emissions.

The input datasets, such as aquifer properties, observed groundwater heads, hydrogeology, groundwater recharge, the Digital Elevation Model (DEM), and hydrological data were used. Datasets were prepared to better represent subsurface hydrology and its future demand effects evaluated using calibrated steady-state numerical groundwater modeling. The WetSpass-M and MODFLOW-2005 models depicted good performances during the simulations of groundwater recharge and groundwater budget under existing abstractions and estimated demand scenarios, respectively. The mean annual groundwater recharge estimated was 177.66 mm/year. The existing groundwater abstraction was 34,686.39, estimated short-term and long-term water demand scenarios were 72,113.61 and 93,795.57 m3/day, respectively. The upstream area has the highest groundwater head and recharge, while decreasing as it approaches the Weyib watershed outlet. During the outflow groundwater budget, the groundwater abstractions increased as expenses of river leakage and head dept. bounds increased. Moreover, the increasing groundwater withdrawal would reduce groundwater heads, and the estimated future water demand scenarios would substantially impact the groundwater budget, which would also have an impact on the watershed hydrology and ecosystem.","PeriodicalId":10464,"journal":{"name":"Cogent Engineering","volume":"107 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139252401","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
