PA/GO (palmitic acid/graphene oxide) as PCMs (phase change materials) prepared by vacuum impregnation method, have high thermal conductivity. The GO (graphene oxide) composite was used as supporting material to improve thermal conductivity and shape stabilization of composite PCM (phase change...

Palmitic acid (PA) is one of the main phase change materials (PCMs) for medium temperature thermal energy storage systems. In order to stabilize the shape and enhance the thermal conductivity of PA, the effects of adding nitrogen-doped graphene (NDG) as a carbon nanofiller were examined...

Bio-fuel has come under consideration due to the effect of fossil oil crisis. Bio-fuels are acting as a renewable replacement of petroleum fuels due to some environmental and economic benefits. Bio-fuel can be produced from different kinds of raw materials. Researchers have seen that absolute...

In the wake of oil crisis, the world is looking for the alternative source of energy where bio-diesel came into play as an attractive renewable alternative fuel. However, it was realized that extensive utilization of bio-fuel would tax the food chain and could lead to food shortages. So, the use...
