Therefore, it is crucial to develop a methodology that can predict the safety status of reactors and eliminate the potential risk of thermal runaway timely. To this end, various thermal runaway criteria have been established to assess the safety status of reactors over the past decades. This opinion article provides a short review of classic criteria applied to distinguish between runaway and nonrunaway states of reactors. Particularly, the significance of divergence criterion in the field of thermal runaway criteria is emphasized. In addition, to illustrate the general application procedures of the divergence criterion, examples of its utilization in three research domains, including process safety assessment, process parameter optimization, and process monitoring and control, are given. In summary, the remaining challenges and future directions in the development of thermal runaway criteria, especially the divergence criterion, are discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"43 ","pages":"Article 100986"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138355486","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increased costs associated with the treatment of impaired water, distribution/conveyance/storage, and waste management to meet water quality requirements and regulations are the challenges in developing an alternative water-based irrigation system. This study evaluates the economic feasibility of developing nontraditional water for agriculture and identifies strategies to address the challenges by increasing affordability. In the Southwest United States, reuse of filtered disinfected municipal wastewater offers the most cost-effective option followed by desalinated brackish water, treated produced water, and seawater. High costs, energy demand, concentrate disposal, and soil salinity management are the primary challenges in using alternative water for irrigation. Economic feasibility can be enhanced by implementing autonomous, easy-to-operate, renewable energy-powered, decentralized desalination systems. The affordability of developing alternative water for irrigation will increase with reduced treatment and waste disposal costs, depletion of conventional irrigation water supplies, and droughts.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"43 ","pages":"Article 100987"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138430305","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The water–energy–food (WEF) nexus, surpassing traditional process systems engineering (PSE), underscores the interconnectedness of resource decisions. Efficient WEF nexus management demands a comprehensive approach encompassing environmental, social, economic, and technical dimensions. PSE tools are vital in shaping this nexus, facilitating a deeper resource interaction and promoting sustainability. This opinion article introduces a novel classification for WEF-specific PSE, advocating for a holistic approach that acknowledges dynamic resource interdependencies. Innovative strategies addressing WEF challenges are proposed, leveraging advanced computational solutions that enhance the nexus models' realism. This trajectory promises insights into nexus intricacies and reflects a shared commitment to harmonize resource coexistence. As we explore the interrelation between water, energy, and food, a path emerges toward the alignment of human and environmental needs, offering a sustainable world trajectory.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":292,"journal":{"name":"Current Opinion in Chemical Engineering","volume":"42 ","pages":"Article 100980"},"PeriodicalIF":6.6,"publicationDate":"2023-11-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91986381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
