Tobacco tax and the illicit trade in tobacco products in New Zealand

open access: yesAustralian and New Zealand Journal of Public Health, 2015
Objectives: To estimate the size of illegal tobacco trade and consumption and assess the impact of tobacco tax on the illicit tobacco market in New Zealand (NZ). Methods: Data on the import and seizure of legal and illegal tobacco in NZ was obtained from

Enhancing Interfacial Dioxygen Bridging Dynamics of Waste‐Derived Cathode Catalysts for Augmented High‐Rate Performance in Li‐O2 Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study fabricates Fine Slag/Ti4O7@TiC hybrids with interfacial dioxygen bridge coupling to optimize oxygen redox dynamics in lithium‐oxygen batteries (LOBs). Lattice distortion from oxygen vacancies and inherent charge repulsion of Ti‐O‐C interfacial coupling reconstruct and refine the surface coordination environment.

Robust Smart Superhydrophobic Cilia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
To date, ciliated surfaces cannot withstand mechanical damage because cilia/wires are inherently fragile. By aligning magneto‐responsive, flexible, superhydrophobic microwires on the sidewall of vertical frames, the frames act as armors to protect microwires from mechanical damage; when needed, the microwires re‐align uprightly under a magnet field to ...

The Future of Hydrogen‐Powered Aviation: Technologies, Challenges, and a Strategic Roadmap for Sustainable Decarbonization

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
Hydrogen‐powered aviation offers a transformative pathway to zero‐emission flight by eliminating in‐flight CO2 emissions. Key considerations include propulsion systems (fuel cells and hydrogen combustion), cryogenic storage and insulation challenges, infrastructure and cost barriers, and supply‐chain constraints.

Eco‐Efficient Processing and Refining Routes for Secondary Raw Materials from Silicon Ingot and Wafer Manufacturing

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The ICARUS project developed pilot‐scale processes to recover and refine secondary raw materials from silicon photovoltaic (PV) ingot and wafer manufacturing waste. Silicon kerf, graphite, and silica residues are purified into high‐value inputs for the PV value chain and beyond.

СOST-EFFECTIVE TECHNOLOGY FOR HEAT POWER STATIONS ASHES PROCESSING AND UTILIZATION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The heat power stations (HPS) ashes generated by the burning of coal are on the one hand, the source of environmental pollution. On the other hand, they pose the source of raw materials for industry.

Breaking Down Lignin: A Macromolecule's Path to the Nanoscale

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
This section highlights lignin's critical role as a sustainable, multifunctional precursor for nanomaterial design. Its unique structure and abundance enable the creation of lignin‐based, lignin‐derived, and hybrid nanomaterials with tunable properties. Emphasis is placed on lignin's potential to drive innovation in nanotechnology, offering ecofriendly
