Water Reuse
Wastewater treatment and reuse has passed through different development stages with time. Based on archeological evidence and time records, the awareness of the Greeks regarding land disposal, irrigation, and water reuse is highlighted. The latter has evolved into a plethora of applications, with Direct Potable Reuse (DPR) representing one of the last modern frontiers.

Measurement of Urban Sprawl
In the context of rapid urbanization, inefficient, disorderly, and low-density urban sprawl often leads to resource waste and ecological damage. Over the decades, many studies on the measurement, analysis, and governance of urban sprawl have emerged.

Warning Systems in Cloud Computing Early Warning Systems
An early warning system (EWS) is an integrated system that facilitates preparedness and response mechanisms through the dissemination of early warning to reduce the impact of a natural disaster. An early warning system is an indispensable tool that helps save lives and reduce the impact of disasters on any infrastructure, such as roads, buildings, farmlands, etc. It has been estimated that USD 800 million is spent annually to develop and operationalize EWSs in developing countries that lack the requisite resources to mitigate the impact of any natural disaster.

Methanogenesis
Coal bed methane (CBM) extraction has astounding effects on the global energy budget. Since the earliest discoveries of CBM, this natural gas form has witnessed ever-increasing demands from the core sectors of the economy. CBM is an unconventional source of energy occurring naturally within coal beds. The multiphase CBM generation during coal evolution commences with microbial diagenesis of the sedimentary organic matter during peatification, followed by early to mature thermogenic kerogen decomposition and post-coalification occurrences. Indeed, the origin of the CBM and, moreover, its economically valuable retention within coal seams is a function of various parameters. Several noticeable knowledge gaps include the controls of coal make-up and its physicochemical position on the CBM generation and genetic link through fossil molecular and stable isotopic integration with the parent coal during its evolution.

Effect of Packaging and Logo on Consumers’ Attention
Given the significance of packaging and logos, the type of form element that can attract consumers has become a crucial research topic. Attention and attraction signify the first stage of the attitude toward further consumption behavior and visual communication to understand the product or service, which is a cognitive stimulation and has a crucial effect on further purchase attitude.

Sustainable Solutions for Small/Medium Ports
Ports are under increased pressure to reduce their negative climate and environmental impacts. Their roles and functions in transportation systems and the economy make them a key industry in promoting sustainability. In particular, small- and medium-sized ports (SMSPs) should serve as lighthouses or flagships of environmental and digital transformation, allowing access to remote locations and integrating peripheral regions.

Effect of Gasification Agent on Underground Coal Gasification
The underground coal gasification (UCG) technology converts coal into product gas and provides the option of environmentally and economically attractive coal mining. Obtained syngas can be used for heating, electricity, or chemical production. Numerous laboratory coal gasification trials have been performed in the academic and industrial fields. Lab-scale tests can provide insight into the processes involved with UCG. Many tests with UCG have been performed on ex-situ reactors, where different UCG techniques, the effect of gasification agents, their flow rates, pressures, and various control mechanisms to improve gasification efficiency and syngas production have been investigated.

Green Ads, Emotional Arousal and Purchase Intention
Green marketing theory explores rationales for minimizing the environmental effect of value production, as well as trade. Green marketing indicates that an organization is market-oriented and operates sustainably. Green marketing is defined as promotional activities targeted at achieving advantages by influencing customer behavior toward a company. The way consumers respond to green marketing messages is a topic that attracts significant interest. more specifically, it is interesting to investigate and comprehend the impact of emotional appeals (positive and negative) in green advertising and how they influence consumer attitudes toward green advertisements and intentions to make environmentally conscious purchases.
