The articles in this issue were authored/co-authored by 24 authors from Indonesia, Taiwan, and Portugal.

The inaugural issue of JESCEE (Vol. 1 No. 1, 2022) presents a diverse range of research articles spanning materials science, energy systems, process engineering, logistics, and control systems. Key contributions include:

• Advanced Materials for Energy Applications: Investigating the electronic structure of SnO2-doped TiO2 thin films for enhanced photoanode performance in Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells (DSSC).
• Reservoir Engineering: Analyzing the effects of HCl acid treatment concentration on the properties (porosity, permeability) and fluid flow rates of carbonate rocks.
• Logistics and Warehouse Management: Developing a dashboard using the Cost Per Case (CPC) perspective to monitor and improve warehouse performance.
• Membrane Technology: Synthesizing and characterizing antibacterial ZnO-functionalized polysulfone membranes for potential water treatment applications.
• Thermal Energy Storage: Studying the performance effects of varying flow rates and inlet temperatures on annulus-type low-temperature latent heat thermal energy storage systems.
• Inventory Control: Applying the Min-Max method for inventory analysis of consumable goods at Universitas Pertamina.
• Power System Protection: Examining over-current relay coordination systems considering the integration of distributed generation.
• Process Control: Implementing temperature control using a Proportional-Integral (PI) controller.

This first volume establishes JESCEE's commitment to publishing impactful research across key areas of industrial technology and engineering.
