	abstract = {<p>Doped-TiO2 nanoparticles (M:TiO2: Fe, Zn, Zr, Sb, Ce and nM:TiO2: B, C, N, P, S) with anatase structure were prepared by sol-gel method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), Brunauer-Teller method (BET), UV-Vis diffuses reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). Results revealed that the anatase structure is highly stable for all doped TiO2 prepared compounds with enhancement in the surface area. UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectra showed that these dopants were responsible for narrowing the band gap of TiO2 and shifting its optical response from ultraviolet to visible-light region. The photocatalytic activities of these multi-doped TiO2 catalysts were investigated by degradation methylene blue in aqueous solution under solar-light illumination. The results showed an appreciable enhancement in the photoactivity of the C-doped TiO2 as compared to other multi-doped TiO2 because of the formation of Ti+3 species which prevent the recombination of electron-hole pairs in C-doped TiO2.

	abstract = {<p>In this paper, thermodynamic analysis of novel ionic liquid 1 Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium ethyl sulphate (EMISE) as absorbent and water as green refrigerant for absorption refrigeration system (ARS) is performed. Thermodynamics excess properties like excess Gibbs free energy (GE), excess enthalpy (hE) and equilibrium D{\"u}hring{\textquoteright}s plot (P-T-x1) of EMISE-H2O binary mixture are assessed using non-random two liquid (NRTL) activity coefficient model for composition x1 of 0.45{\textendash}1. The performance of single effect ARS with SHE are mathematically modeled and simulated by applying first and second laws (exergy analysis) of thermodynamics. Simulated results of ARS are compared with other widely used working fluids and revealed higher COP of 0.66 for EMISE-H2O in comparison to NH3-H2O but lower than LiBr-H2O. In addition, the deviation in the COP and ECOP with the generator temperatures are compared for the evaporation temperature of 5, 10, 15 {\textdegree}C. Result showed noticeable difference between the optimum generator temperature based on COP and ECOP. This indicates the exergy analysis is used for evaluation of ARS and selection of heat source supply temperature obtained from waste heat and renewable solar energy.</p>
