allowed to reach the desiredtemperature for 5 minutes, after which a 5-minute period of bubble formation was observed. Thisprocess was repeated 4 times with the catalyst's temperature measured at 70°C, 80°C, 90°C, and100°C.It is worth noting that water was used to simulate hydrogenated dibenzothiophene (DBT).Hydrogenated DBT was intended to be used in this study; however, it is not commerciallyavailable. Although it can be prepared in a laboratory, this process requires a high-pressurehydrogen tank capable of delivering compressed hydrogen gas at a minimum of 3 MPa [13], anda high-temperature, high-pressure reactor to synthesize the hydrogenated DBT fromdehydrogenated DBT. Due to the absence of safety protocols for handling hydrogen at theauthors

energy today provides about 9% of the world’s energy and8 to 10% of the U.S. needs [4]. However, in many parts of the world, these percentages are increasingsignificantly. Based on current data on global warming, as well as the current U.S. dependence onoverseas oil, there is an interest and urgency in utilizing alternative energy sources [5].In order to prepare students for their future careers, real-world training is imperative for their education.University campuses in the United States are taking important steps to establish alternative energyresearch and education [5]. For example, undergraduate engineering and engineering technologyprograms are now including laboratory-based curriculum in alternative energy [5]. Hands-on

), and battery energy storage systems (BESS). (e) Inclusion of PSCAD software in simulation laboratories for Power System Analysis. (f) Incorporation of tutorial-lab sessions in the first-year course Electrical Circuit Fundamentals to introduce renewable energy concepts.Figure 2 Comparison of curriculum update and energy policy milestones timeline. Two main observations are made. First, curriculum development tends to lag behind energypolicy and industry advancements, with significant course updates occurring in the early 2020safter notable changes in the industry. Second, the curriculum renewal influenced by energypolicies spans all program levels, from first-year undergraduate to postgraduate courses.Introductory courses focus on

This set of labactivities also contained two parts: a pre-lab activity and a hands-on lab activity. a. The pre-laboratory activity discusses the history of insulation in buildings, such as using large stones
