“…The numerical study was made in COMSOL using concentrations of 0.025, 0.075 and 0.125 wt%. During this study, it was observed that a concentration of 0.125 wt% of MXene-SO is better than the 0.2 wt% MXene-OPO studied by Samylingam et al (2020). MXene-SO showed 12.11% increment in the heat removal performance compared to MXene-OPO.…”

“…The results confirmed that the use of nanofluids in the thermal management of a PV module will improve its electrical performance. Samylingam et al (2020) used COMSOL to numerically investigate the thermal performance of a PV/T system using MXene (Ti 3 C 2 ) suspended in pure olein palm oil (OPO) as a heat transfer fluid. It was observed that this nanofluid improves the thermal efficiency, heat transfer performance and reduces the PV temperature.…”

Hybrid photovoltaic/thermal systems have become an important energy technology due to their capacity of producing electrical and thermal energy simultaneously, their ease of integration into buildings and good overall performance. Conventional PV systems generate waste energy in the form of heat during the conversion of solar radiation into electricity. It has been shown that the electrical efficiency of PV panels decays with the rise in the PV cell temperature. Therefore, PV performance can be optimised if this heat is removed. Air and water are the most common media used for heat removal and the energy can then be used for heating applications in buildings. In the last five decades, researchers worldwide have carried out experimental studies, simulations and numerical modelling of different types of PV/T systems. In addition to water and air, heat removal methods such as refrigerants, PCM, heat pumps and nanofluids have been analysed. This work presents an overview and discussion of the research of the different PV/T thermal control systems of the last five years. The present study highlights key points of the different techniques that exist, such as overall efficiencies, parameters and configurations, type of system, the nature of work, country of development and applications. Based on this study, it was concluded that the PV/T systems are auspicious technology and that further work should be focused on the aesthetics of the systems to promote acceptance and improvement of the efficiency.

“…Ranging from the lowest E g of 3.3 eV to the highest 4.2 eV was obtained in the PVA-MXene mixture due to modified energy states between the conduction and valence bands. In another interesting composite study, thermal and physical management were observed for MXene with palm oil nanofluid, and enhancement in these properties and the electrical efficiency increased to 13.8% and thermal efficiency by ∼11.2% of the solar PV/T system was studied (Samylingam et al, 2020). A similar study was also conducted with MXene based silicone oil nanofluids in increasing thermoelectric efficiency in solar cells (Aslfattahi et al, 2020b).…”

In the last several decades, significant efforts have been devoted to two-dimensional (2D) materials on account of their optical properties that have numerous applications in the optoelectronic world in the range of light-emitting diodes, optical sensors, solar energy conversion, photo-electrochemical cells, photovoltaic solar cells, and even the biomedical sector. First, we provide an outline of linear optical properties of 2D materials such as graphene, TMDs, h-BN, MXenes, perovskite oxide, and metal-organic framework. Then, we discuss the optoelectronic properties of the 2D materials. Along with these, we also highlight the important efforts in developing 2D optical materials with intensive emission properties at a broad wavelength from ultraviolet to near-infrared. The origin of this tunable emission has been discussed decoratively. Thickness and layer-dependent optical properties have been highlighted and are explained through surface defects, strain, vacancy, doping, and dangling bonds emerging due to structural change in the material. The linear and nonlinear optical properties in 2D MXene and perovskite oxides are also impressive due to their potential applications in next-generation devices with excellent optical sensitivity. Finally, technological innovations, challenges, and possible tuning of defects and imperfections in the 2D lattice are discussed.

In the search of sustainable process and products, ecofriendly policies have been developed over the years, aiming at reducing the environmental impacts as a step toward sustainability. Among the environmental impacts, alternatives to mitigate the greenhouse gas emissions - GHG stand out due to the concerns with climate change. Then, the development and use of renewable resources become relevant. Considering that supply chains are intense in energy consumption and GHG emissions (since involves processes related to supply, production, transport, consumption), it becomes relevant to investigate if the management of sustainable supply chain are considering the renewable energies in their processes. Therefore, this paper aims at mapping the role of renewable energies in the context of sustainable supply chain, analyzing the literature published at Web of Science database - WoS about the subject. The main researchers, organizations, collaboration networks were presented, and the 21 most cited studies were mapped in this paper. The research was carried out with the papers published at WoS until 2019, using VantagePoint software to handle information. The findings show that the research about renewable energy in the context of sustainable supply chain has been growing, especially since 2010. Moreover, biomass, biofuels and photovoltaic energy were the most recurrent sources of renewable energy studied by most cited papers. However, the theme presented itself as new and that there are still potential to be explored.
