A new study co-authored by our researcher, Dr. Mohammad Jaber, identifies optimal locations for biochar production facilities by integrating Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA). The research provides a data-driven approach to sustainable waste management and supports the transition toward a circular economy in arid regions.

Exploring Jordanian households’ intentions to adopt solar energy systems using the theory of planned behavior
Sustainable development promotes energy transition as key to economic growth. Jordan is advancing this transition in line with the Paris Agreement. This study explores Jordanian households’ intentions to adopt…
Continue readingEnergy consumption, economic growth, and climate change nexus in Jordan: insights from the Toda Yamamoto causality test
Jordan faces significant challenges related to energy security due to its limited natural resources and reliance on energy imports, which meet over 90% of its energy needs. The adoption of renewable energy (RE) technologies…

A new article titled “Experimental Investigation of the Effect of the Powder and the Suspension Rheology on Grindability” has been published in Geosciences and Engineering (Vol. 13, No. 1). The study, authored by CiRCLETECH researchers, explores how the rheological properties of powders and suspensions influence grindability in wet media milling processes. The experimental results contribute to a deeper understanding of material behavior during comminution, offering practical insights for industrial and environmental process optimization.
Continue readingUtilization of fish scale waste
A new scientific article on fish scales recycling published. Fish scales are a waste byproduct of the food and catering industry in Hungary, despite containing valuable compounds like collagen, hydroxyapatite, and gelatine. Landfilling them wastes renewable raw materials. As a bio-based resource, fish scales can be converted into commercially valuable materials.

A new publication from our researchers
A new CiRCLETECH scientific paper entitled ”Influence of feedstock composition on the adsorptive properties of RDF-based activated carbon” has been published.
CO2 sequestration experiments by producing geopolymer specimens from lignite fly ash
Mineral-based CO₂ sequestration offers a permanent and safe way to store CO₂ by forming stable carbonates through reactions with calcium or magnesium-bearing materials. In a recent study, fly ash from Visonta (Northern Hungary) was mechanically activated and carbonated using a planetary ball mill under wet conditions.
