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.

Vol. 5 No. 1 (2026)Editorial: A Renewed Vision and Sharpened Focus for the Advanced and Sustainable Technologies (ASET)Dear Readers, Authors, and Colleagues,
Since its establishment in 2021, the journal of Advanced and Sustainable Technologies (ASET) has experienced remarkable growth. We have had the privilege of publishing diverse research that explores the myriad ways technology intersects with modern society. I want to extend my deepest gratitude to the authors, reviewers, and editorial board members who have supported ASET during its formative years.
As we move forward into 2026, the global demand for applied, sustainable engineering solutions has never been more urgent. The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a critical blueprint for our collective future, and academic journals must play a frontline role in disseminating the technological innovations needed to achieve these global targets.
With this imperative in mind, the ASET Editorial Board has undertaken a strategic review of our publication trajectory. In our early volumes, we embraced a broad, multidisciplinary approach. However, to truly serve our core mission and our readership, we recognize the necessity of consolidating our focus.
Effective immediately, ASET is instituting a highly refined and rigorous Aims and Scope. We are drawing a distinct line in the sand to focus exclusively on the intersection of advanced engineering, applied technology, and measurable environmental sustainability.
Moving forward, all accepted research will be strictly categorized into five core thematic pillars:
-
Sustainable & Advanced Manufacturing
-
Smart Energy & Electrification
-
Intelligent Systems for Sustainability
-
Circular Economy & Resource Engineering
-
Resilient Infrastructure & AgriTech
To protect the integrity of these pillars and elevate our academic standing toward broader international indexing, we are implementing stricter editorial workflows. Submissions that fall outside these technical boundaries, such as general business administration, marketing, social policies, or pure sciences lacking a clear sustainable engineering application, will now be immediately returned to authors without review. Our peer-review process will heavily weigh not only a manuscript's methodological soundness but its direct, articulated impact on specific SDGs.
This evolution marks an exciting maturation for ASET. By sharpening our scope, we aim to transform this journal into a premier, high-impact platform for the global engineering community.
We invite researchers, innovators, and industrial practitioners from around the world to join us in this renewed mission. We look forward to publishing your highest-quality, sustainably driven technological research.
Sincerely,
Ts. Dr. Khor Chu Yee
