Evaluating Biopolymers as Sustainable Alternatives to Synthetic Polymers: Review
Carlos da Silva Bento*, Gediz Uğuz
It is undeniable that human actions have an impact on the entire planet. One of the greatest challenges associated with environmental pollution concerns the nature of the materials we use. In contemporary times, polymers are used in almost every sector, including medicine, construction, aerospace, automotive, naval, food, electronics, and more. Biopolymers such as cellulose, starch, resin, p
Voltage Oriented Control Approach in Smart Microgrids with Large Scale Energy Storage Integration
Felicidade Pemba Kinzo Garcia*, Atanda Kamoru Raji, Khaled M Abo-Al-Ez
Microgrids refer to small-scale power systems formed from distributed generations, storage devices, and loads, operating synchronised with integrated power electronic units. Since the power supply and the microgrid load are unstable, including energy storage may allow power balance while assuring the microgrid's suitable predictability. Energy storage can deal with the microgrid's unpredicta
Using African Engineering ADR Practitioners in Resolving Infrastructure Project Disputes Under the AfCFTA Protocol
David Kwatia Nyante*
The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is an important initiative aimed at the integration and development of Africa. This trade initiative provides an opportunity for engineering enterprises in the development of infrastructure projects which are important developmental requirements. With almost all human endeavors disputes are likely to arise. Disputes related to infrastructure p
Towards a Net Zero Luanda: Carbon Neutral Solutions for Sustainable Coastal Regeneration in Ramiros
Ariadne R. S. Dias*, Helga M. L. de Sousa, Helga M. L. Teixeira, Lourdes S. V. M. Sebastião de Campos
This research paper aims to propose sustainable infrastructure solutions for regenerating and redeveloping the Ramiros community in Luanda, Angola. The rapid urbanisation of Luanda has led to the proliferation of Ramiros, informal settlements lacking adequate infrastructure and basic services like housing, clean water access, reliable energy sources, and waste management systems. Employing a
Fuzzy System Applied to Search for Feedback on Governance in The Province of Namibe
Paulino Calei Alves Domingos*, Mateus Padoca Calado, Alberto Raimundo Watchilambi Wapota
This project aims to develop a mathematical model based on fuzzy logic for mining citizens' opinions on governance in the Province of Namibe. Fuzzy logic, or fuzzy logic, an extension of Boolean logic, is especially effective in dealing with uncertainty and imprecision in opinions, allowing for a more accurate analysis of citizens' perceptions. The research involved collecting fifteen respon
Transforming Revenue Generation: Leveraging Drone Technology for Efficient Meter Reading in Disaster/Flood-prone Areas
Michael Nyoagbe*, Maxwell Akosah-Kusi, Gloria Afua Poku, Christina Betty Taylor, Francisca Ameley Amarh, Veronica Eyrah Tagoe
In the wake of natural disasters or emergencies, accurate meter readings are crucial for utility companies to maintain revenue streams and ensure fair billing. However, traditional manual meter reading faces significant challenges in disaster-affected areas, including accessibility issues, safety concerns, and resource constraints. This study carried out by Ghana Water Limited explores the p
