Recent advancements in flat plate solar collector using phase change materials and nanofluid: a review.

Solar energy has emerged as one of the most promising sources of renewable energy to replace the current energy market. Flat plate solar collectors (FPSC) not only are one of the easiest collectors to produce and work with but also are cheap and economical. Due to this, extensive research has been done on FPSC to improve its efficiency and reliability.

A review of environmental friendly green composites: production methods, current progresses, and challenges.

The growing concern about environmental damage and the inability to meet the demand for more versatile, environmentally friendly materials has sparked increasing interest in polymer composites derived from renewable and biodegradable plant-based materials, mainly from forests. These composites are mostly referred to as "green" and they can be widely employed in many industrial applications. Green composites are less harmful to the environment and could be potential substitutes for petroleum-based polymeric materials.
