“…In their compelling study, Arslan and Arslan [150] investigated the potential for integrating residential-scale latent heat thermal energy storage (RS-LTES) using phase change material (PCM) energy storage containers in a geothermal district heating system. Located in Simav, Turkey, the system exhibited numerous opportunities and certain constraints that are imperative to consider for potential implementation.…”

Current industrial civilization relies on conventional energy sources and utilizes large and inefficient energy conversion systems. Increasing concerns regarding conventional fuel supplies and their environmental impacts (including greenhouse gas emissions, which contribute to climate change) have promoted the importance of renewable energy (RE) sources for generating electricity and heat. This comprehensive review investigates integrating renewable energy sources (RES) with thermal energy storage (TES) systems, focusing on recent advancements and innovative approaches. Various RES (including solar, wind, geothermal, and ocean energy sources) are integrated with TES technologies such as sensible and latent TES systems. This review highlights the advantages and challenges of integrating RES and TES systems, emphasizing the importance of hybridizing multiple renewable energy sources to compensate for their deficiencies. Valuable outputs from these integrated systems (such as hydrogen production, electric power and freshwater) are discussed. The overall significance of RES–TES hybrid systems in addressing global energy demand and resource challenges is emphasized, demonstrating their potential to substitute fossil-fuel sources. This review provides a thorough understanding of the current state of RES–TES integration and offers insights into future developments in optimizing the utilization of renewable energy sources.

“…Accordingly, the increasing development of wastewater treatment and resource recycling technologies is necessary to reduce the environmental impacts of wastewater discharge 7 – 9 . Among the various industries, the dairy factory is one of the industries that produces huge wastewater; such that to produce one liter of milk, around 2.5 L of water is consumed and the same amount of wastewater is produced 10 , 11 . Wastewater treatment and recycling in such industries can simultaneously reduce freshwater consumption and the environmental impacts of wastewater discharge into the environment 12 , 13 .…”

Due to the high volume of wastewater produced from dairy factories, it is necessary to integrate a water recovery process with the treatment plant. Today, bipolar membrane electrodialysis units (BMEUs) are increasingly developed for wastewater treatment and reutilizing. This article aims to develop and evaluate (technical and cost analyses) a combined BMEU/batch reverse osmosis unit (BROU) process for the recovery of chemicals and water from the dairy wastewater plant. The combined BROU/BMEU process is able to simultaneously produce water and strong base-acid, and reduce power consumption due to the injection of concentrated feed flow into the BMEU. A comprehensive comparative analysis on the performances of two combined and stand-alone BMEU configurations are developed. The proposed combined technology for dairy factory wastewater treatment is designed on a new structure and configuration that can address superior cost analysis compared to similar technologies. Further, the optimal values of permeate flux and current density as two vital and influencing parameters on the performance of the studied dairy wastewater treatment process were calculated and discussed. From the outcomes, the total cost of production in the combined configuration has been reduced by approximately 26% compared to the stand-alone configuration. Increasing the feed concentration rate using the batch reverse osmosis process for the dairy wastewater treatment process can be an ideal solution from an economic point of view. Moreover, point (current density, feed concentration rate, total unit cost) = $$\left(328.9, 7, 14.37\right)$$ 328.9 , 7 , 14.37 can be considered as an optimal point for the economic performance of the studied wastewater treatment process.

“…Due to the adverse effects of fossil fuels on the environment and human health, limited reserves, and high costs (including ecological problems) in energy production, less harmful and sustainable energy sources have gained importance (Arslan and Arslan, 2022a;Arslan and Arslan, 2022b;Arslan, 2021;Ucar and Arslan, 2021;Arslan and Kilic, 2021;Arslan, 2010). According to the figures of 1996, it is estimated that coal will run out in 235 years, oil in 43 years and natural gas in 66 years.…”

In this study, the behavior of using renewable energy sources (RES) has been investigated in the concept of planned behavior theory (PBT), taking into account the knowledge level and external concerns of environmental issues and RES. The willingness to overpay for energy demand by RES was also investigated. To this aim, a questionnaire was created and applied to 337 public officers from different sectors in Turkey. The questionnaire results were then analyzed by Structural Equality Modeling (SEM). In conclusion, it has been determined that the knowledge level on environmental issues has significant effects on environmental issues, which forced people to learn about RES. So, the intention of using RES is affected positively. Another important result obtained in the study is that the knowledge about RES affects the willingness to overpay. In addition, subjective norms have an impact on the attitude towards the use of RES.
