Green energy technology innovations are expected to be a major driver of global change in the future. Renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal power will continue to improve in efficiency and reduce in cost, making them more accessible to the general public. New-generation batteries with larger capacities, shorter charging times, and longer lifespans will accelerate the adoption of electric vehicles and home energy storage systems.
Additionally, carbon management technologies, such as carbon capture and storage (CCS), will continue to advance to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. With these combined advancements, the world will be closer to achieving net-zero carbon emissions, fostering a cleaner and more sustainable environment for future generations.
Ilyas Rabbani Devanda, a student from Diponegoro University’s Vocational School in the Industrial Chemical Engineering Technology (TRKI) program, has made remarkable contributions to the development of environmentally friendly technology. Not only that, but Ilyas has actively engaged in green technology development by conducting research across various fields.
In pursuit of his dreams, Ilyas has conducted various studies to support the global transition from outdated technologies to modern ones. One such initiative is his research on the extraction of aromatic compounds using microwave technology. This method is a step forward in the development of green technology—why is that so?
Microwave extraction is a technique that separates active compounds using electromagnetic waves. This method is considered environmentally friendly because it requires fewer solvents, reducing chemical waste pollution, it is energy-efficient as the electromagnetic waves effectively extract active compounds, and it has a short processing time, thus lowering energy costs.
“Innovation is not just about new technology; it’s about new ways of thinking that create remarkable solutions to old challenges,” said Ilyas.
Building on this, technological development will continue to evolve, bringing about positive and beautiful changes for the future.
