Agricultural residues such as pineapple leaves, banana pseudostems and peduncles, cereal straw, sugarcane bagasse, corn husks, and coconut shells contain cellulose that can be converted into textile materials. Their suitability depends on the fit between natural morphology, extraction damage, and downstream processing. This review follows three routes: long fiber bundles for direct spinning; short feedstocks converted to regenerated cellulose through pulping and dissolution spinning; and coarse, lignin-rich fibers for nonwovens or composites.....

Circular garments on the market are commonly described through brief claims such as recycled content, long wear life, repair services, or take-back schemes. Consumers, however, compare complete garments, so price, fit, handle, care requirements, and service conditions enter the decision at the same time.This review primarily examines studies on circular design and sustainable clothing consumption published between 2010 and July 2026, supplemented by foundational studies on perceived value and planned behavior.....

Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) has been viewed as the driving force for sustainable growth by the United Nations Education, Scientific and Cultural Organization ( UNESCO) since it provides an avenue for human capital development. This realization explains the increased Government expenditure in TVET educationand reforms in training programme enshrined in the TVET ACT, 2013. This study sought to establish the influence offlexible learner progression on completion rates in National polytechnics in Kenya. Mixed Method research design was adopted. Numerical data was gathered throughquestionnaires and key informant interviews. The target population.....

There is a great deal of room for PSCs to dominate the PV industry since they consume 103 times less resources and have fewer, simpler solution processes than the expensive, high-temperature methods. Solar cells have been the subject of several ongoing studies with the aim of improving their design and functionality. The double PALs, i.e., MASnI3 and CsSnGeI3, are used for simulating the perovskite solar cell utilizing the SCAPS-1D simulating software. Initially, the investigation includes the combined effect of the PAL thicknesses for finding suitable widths for attaining much-improved efficiency of the PSC......
