TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative analysis of building insulation materials properties (thermal, hygroscopic, acoustic, reaction to fire, environmental, and cost) and their performance in different climate zones and proposed an optimization framework.

TL;DR: Underground coal gasification (UCG) as discussed by the authors is a promising technology having a lot of health, safety and environmental advantages over the conventional mining techniques; the major motivational aspects of UCG involves increased worker health and safety by using no man underground, no surface disposal of ash and coal tailings, low dust and noise pollution, low water consumption, larger coal reserves exploitation, and low volatile organic components, methane and green house gases emission to atmosphere.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed that heat transfer through building opaque envelope is responsible for approximately half of the total heat loss and gain to and from the surroundings, therefore, insulation materials are commonly used.

TL;DR: This work aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, which aims to provide real-time information about the phytochemical properties of coal gasification technology and its applications in agriculture and sustainable development.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed a conceptual framework to design a sustainable building envelope that includes life cycle assessment, occupant's satisfaction, and social benefits, including switchable reflective materials to minimize heat transfer and dynamic insulation material to control insulation value as needed.
