Ion-Exchange Resins Application to Hydrogenation Reactions
The role of ion-exchange resins (IERs) as catalysts or catalysts supports, in hydrogenation reactions is revised and their potential application is presented. Both gel-type and macroreticular, basic or acid, IERs have been used for manifold metal-catalyzed hydrogenation processes in gas and liquid phase, including hydrogenation of alkenes, alkynes, carbonyls, arenes, nitroaromatics, and more.  Hydrogenation can be defined as the incorporation of hydrogen atoms, either from gaseous H2 or from other sources, to unsaturated compounds, that is compounds with double (C═C) or triple (C≡C) bonds, including those with carbonyl (C═O) or nitrile (C≡N) groups. The application of metal-doped IERs in hydrogenation reactions has been the focus of continuous attention for the research community with many relevant works published in the field.

Application of SLAM in Autonomous Driving
The applications of Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) for autonomous driving with respect to different driving scenarios, vehicle system components and the characteristics of the SLAM approaches are discussed. A real-world road test is presented to demonstrate a multi-sensor-based modernized SLAM procedure for autonomous driving. The numerical results show that a high-precision 3D point cloud map can be generated by the SLAM procedure with the integration of Lidar and GNSS/INS.

Enabling Technologies in Collaborative Assembly
There is growing interest for manufacturing enterprises to embrace the drivers of the Smart Industry paradigm. Among these drivers, human–robot physical co-manipulation of objects has gained significant interest in the literature on assembly operations. Motivated by the requirement for human dyads between the human and the robot counterpart, the study of task allocation in human-robot collaboration literature shows promising trends for the implementation of ergonomics in collaborative assembly.

Mechanism of Advanced Oxidation Processes
Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) involves the generation of powerful oxidizing radical groups, such as hydroxyl radicals, which function as oxidizing agents and mineralize organic chemical substances into CO2 and H2O. AOPs such as photocatalysis and photo-Fenton have been widely considered to be very effective in removing persistent organic pollutants.
