Valorization of Coffee By-Products: Cascade Pathways for Food, Materials, Energy, and Environmental Applications

Coffee production and consumption generate heterogeneous biomass and effluent streams, including pulp, husk, mucilage, parchment, silverskin, spent coffee grounds (SCGs), and processing wastewater. However, the literature on their valorization remains fragmented by feedstock and...

Heat Transfer Enhancement in a Shell-and-Tube Type of Heat Exchanger Using Al2O3/Water Nanofluid

Abstract Shell-and-tube heat exchangers are widely used in industrial processes, but improving the shell-side heat transfer without causing excessive pressure losses remains a major engineering challenge. Numerical simulations provide an efficient approach for evaluating thermohy...
