Carbon Footprint of Bank Loans: Opportunities and Risk Implications in the Banking Industry

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines whether the carbon footprint of bank loan portfolios influences bank stability, profitability and cost efficiency and whether regulatory quality moderates these relationships. Using a balanced panel of 33 countries from 2005 to 2018, the analysis combines banking‐sector indicators from the World Bank Global Financial ...

Sustainable and Resilient Supply Networks: Digitalisation, Regulation and Climate Vulnerability in a Global Context

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The growing frequency of global crises has intensified concerns regarding climate vulnerability and the resilience of global production systems. This study examines the heterogeneous effects of supply chain development and supply chain digitalisation on climate vulnerability across countries, while accounting for institutional and investment ...

The Filament Extension Atomization Process for Powder Production of Elastic Fluids

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Filament extension atomization is a promising technique for spraying a wide range of materials, enabling narrow droplet size distributions. This study examines the behavior of various fluids and suspensions to define application limits and identify optimal operating conditions.

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

Blind Identification of Out-of-Cell Users in DS-CDMA

EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2004
In the context of multiuser detection for the DS-CDMA uplink, out-of-cell interference is usually treated as Gaussian noise, possibly mitigated by overlaying a long random cell code on top of symbol spreading.

Carbon monoxide adsorption on NaY zeolite and impregnated with 5% niobium: Characteristics and fixed‐bed study

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Schematic of the CO adsorption process in a fixed‐bed column containing pure NaY zeolite and Nb‐modified NaY (NaY–5%Nb). On the left, breakthrough curves and temperature profiles highlight the dynamic performance and thermal effects during CO adsorption.

The radial spreading of volcanic umbrella clouds deduced from satellite measurements

Volcanica
Analysis of thermal infrared satellite measurements of umbrella clouds generated by volcanic eruptions suggests that asymptotic gravity current models of the temporal (t) radial (r) spreading (r ~tf, f < 1) of the umbrella-shaped intrusion do not ...

A partial envelope approach for modelling multivariate spatial‐temporal data

Canadian Journal of Statistics, EarlyView.
Abstract In the new era of big data, modelling multivariate spatial‐temporal data is a challenging task due to both the high dimensionality of the features and complex associations among the responses across different locations and time points.

The SIR Model in a Moving Population: Propagation of Infection and Herd Immunity

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In a collection of particles performing independent random walks on Zd$\mathbb {Z}^d$ we study the spread of an infection with SIR dynamics. Susceptible particles become infected when they meet an infected particle. Infected particles heal and are removed at rate ν$\nu$.
