A device, system, and method for harvesting solar energy from an artificial turf field or other area exposed to sunlight. An array of solar collectors may be placed in a sports stadium or other open field, each
1. A system to harvest energy in a wellbore, the system comprising: a flexible member disposed in a wellbore, wherein the flexible member comprises at least a portion of a drill string; and an energy harvesting apparatus comprising magnetostrictive material and a conductor coupled to the magnetos...
2. Ultra-fine fibres produced by electrospinning have driven advances since their synthetic research inception3,4, from improving the efficiency of solar cells and batteries5,6to advancing biomedical engineering7,8and electronics9,10. The simplicity and scalability...
The energy band positions of catalysts are identified to check whether the thermodynamic requirements of photocatalytic CO2reduction are satisfied. The first step is to locate the Fermi level, which is generally measured as the flat-band potential versus a reference electrode by constructing Mott–Schot...
The environmental impacts of dried microalgal powder were estimated by means of LCA following the standardized LCA approach [32,33]. The system boundaries included cultivation, harvesting, and drying (cradle-to-gate). The environmental impacts were calculated for the functional unit “1 kg protein”...

bio-inspired studies and tailored engineering strategies have been incorporated in this review. Since efficient technologies are required at moisture-scarce locations, active moisture harvesting has also been studied. The use of innovative materials along with different energy sources to capture water is ...
2.1Solar Radiation The Sun, as a vast source of heat, continuously emits energy. Under clear daytime conditions, solar radiation intensity can reach up to 1000 W m−2. However, as solar radiation travels through the atmosphere, its intensity is attenuated due to scattering and absorption by ...
