About the Journal
Journal of Advanced and Sustainable Technologies (ASET) [eISSN: 2976-2294] is an international, peer-reviewed engineering technology journal dedicated to the dissemination of high-quality research at the intersection of technological innovation and environmental stewardship. Published biannually (June and December) by UniMAP Press (Universiti Malaysia Perlis), ASET was established in September 2021 by the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering Technology. As a strategic initiative of the Malaysian Technical University Network (MTUN), the journal serves as a global bridge between advanced engineering applications and sustainable development. ASET publishes original research articles and reviews that advance knowledge in the fields of Advanced Applied Mechanics, Electronics, Sustainable Infrastructure, and Environmental Engineering. Our editorial mission is to support technology-driven solutions for industrial, infrastructural, and agricultural contexts, with a specific emphasis on resource efficiency and the circular economy. To accommodate growing contributions and ensure faster dissemination of research, ASET is expanding its publication schedule: starting in 2026, the journal transitions to three issues annually (June, September, and December), followed by a quarterly schedule of four issues (March, June, September, and December) beginning in 2027.

Vol. 5 No. 2 (2026):
Welcome to the September issue of the journal of Advanced and Sustainable Technologies (ASET). We are pleased to present a curated collection of peer-reviewed articles highlighting groundbreaking solutions at the intersection of technological innovation and environmental stewardship.
Structured across ASET’s five core thematic pillars, this issue features cross-disciplinary research driving global sustainability and industrial progress:
-
Sustainable & Advanced Manufacturing: Breakthroughs in Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA), eco-friendly machining using waste-derived coolants, bio-composites, and advanced Finite Element Analysis (FEA) for structural reinforcement.
-
Smart Energy & Electrification: Cutting-edge progress in green hydrogen production technologies, dye-sensitized solar cells, passive direct methanol fuel cells, and grid stability in renewable-integrated networks.
-
Intelligent Systems for Sustainability: Data-driven solutions utilizing deep learning for marine ecosystem monitoring, physiological machine learning models for thermal comfort, AI in digital entrepreneurship, and quantitative frameworks for sustainable project management.
-
Circular Economy & Resource Engineering: Actionable research on industrial waste valorization, mineral-polymer composites from mining runoff, bioplastics, e-waste recycling management, and catalytic co-pyrolysis for bio-oil production.
-
Resilient Infrastructure & AgriTech: High-impact studies driving digital transformation via Building Information Modeling (BIM) in Industrialized Building Systems (IBS), eco-friendly pest control, agricultural sludge reutilization, and sustainable transport logistics.
By combining empirical rigour with industrial applicability, this issue reinforces ASET’s commitment to advancing sustainable engineering solutions for global societal impact.
